    Not good News

    Sixfields and the minimal attendance is irrelevant. 900 non Cardiff supporters, well there probably was some Cardiff and independents within that 900, would be interesting to know how many were full price tickets. The appeal was hardly unanticipated, very clearly stated that it would happen...

    Cardiff Match Thread

    At least we can now concentrate on the league and avoiding relegation. Sad game when it is probably the only time this season CCFC will have a world wide televised audience.

    NEWS : Quiz: Can you pass the UK Citizenship test?

    I had to guess at the actual duration of the 100 years war, guessed wrong. Not sure if I had ever seen that one before. Otherwise pretty simple questions.

    Interesting listening to the commentary, a lot of new players to get a grip with. Draw half time seems fair.

    Revenues - how much are they worth?

    I have seen no suggestion that CCFC would buy or build a ground. The new ground will be built by somebody else and the club will be a tenant.

    Revenues - how much are they worth?

    If I was Ricoh then a successful club is definitely a plus and I would pay more for sponsorship. Unfortunately that is not something likely to be available. On the basis of public pronouncements having a League 1 team for a couple of seasons does not sound that attractive.

    Revenues - how much are they worth?

    That would be ten grand a game, very difficult to believe. On a 10,000 gate and 10% margin that would mean the average spend would be a tenner.

    Revenues - how much are they worth?

    They were not prepared to pay what ACL want or decided to focus advertising monies elsewhere.

    Revenues - how much are they worth?

    Interesting question, I had assumed media exposure was a major factor, and that is what Ricoh were buying in the Premiership.

    Revenues - how much are they worth?

    F&B is a red herring, small beer. Part of the issue is that the Club is only looking at a short term rental, for a few years and for the days home games are played. Sponsorship deals etc do not really come into it. Not like the mega bucks Man U get for example, these are long term contracts...

    With a bit of searching I found a picture, but I am even more confused. The single story is familiar, but I thought it was more built up. I am sure we went there well into the mid 60's, I was 4 in August 1960, we would walk to Highfield Road or catch a bus..

    Thanks, that is it. Was it where Coventry News is? Funny how the memory plays tricks. I thought it was a lot narrower. I guess this photo was from a lot later judging by the car number plate and double yellow lines, and of course Pool Meadow is covered in concrete. The queue would be on the...
