Hahaha Steven Hawking, thanks for that bro,it's made my Friday
Another 30,000 crowd http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/watch-insomnia-54-returns-ricoh-8978510
A little research shows attendees pay £20 for 1 day, up to £97 to 'bring their own computer'.. and its sold out http://insomniagamingfestival.com/tickets/
That sure is a lot of pocket money!
Working over time? Hope Anne has sanctioned that.
That's a short comment. Nothing relevant to say in reply?
What's relevant about it? It was on every year when the council owned ACl wasn't it?
I just wonder what possible motivation Council Jack has for bumping that thread along.

maybe be he is showing that having a long term lease is at least as good as owning the stadium outright as you get income from 30000 plus events either way. Still I can't speak for him. I would like to see Wasps accounts for the first year at the Ricoh when they come out, but that won't be til next year. It would be interesting to know how much revenue a stadium can bring in - this is relevant to our own predicament and any investors that may finance the stadium ( which won't be built IMHO ). It may decide one way or another if a new stadium is feasible or not.
Just pointing out missed opportunities. I'm guessing an event like this is equivalent to half a dozen CCFC matches for the Arena just on F&B/parking/leasing camping space alone, thousands of hungry teens will munch a lot of junk food. And Mart don't listen to Grendels ridiculous assertions about my motivations, he is just making it up & knows feck all, ask instead what his motivation is in attacking anyone who posts anything that shows up how bad SISU are at running the club.
I doubt ACL get that much after compass have taken their cut. They didn't seem to make much profit from 40k attending concerts

Are you saying that the 365 revenues won't be all that much because caterers and guest organisers take their cut first? Would be interesting to know how much the stadium generates in order to calculate how long a new stadium for us would take to pay for itself.

Whilst I can understand the ideal of promoting the premise of missed opportunities, this has been done to death.
Are you really going to bump the same thread every few weeks when they get an event that has a good turn out?
We know SISU are shit but the complete joy that comes accross in such posts promoting how 'great' Wasps are, when in fact they are just carrying on what ACL did, is nothing but tedious and just a little nauseus.
I can only base it on the limited profits in ACL and IEC's accounts.
Do you believe that there's only 10% profit to be be made on F&B's? My guess is that as part of their contract Compass make a certain % and the rest then goes to IEC & ACL. If there was no/little profit in it for a massive company like Compass, why would they even be involved?

I think you missed my point. It is interesting to see how much revenue a stadium in Coventry generates. The rhetoric for building a new stadium is that we need 365 days a year revenue to fund the club. We also need to pay a rent to the investors for building the stadium. The question is whether these events generate enough revenue to reward the investors and fund the club? If Wasps - ACL are making a fortune from events, then it would justify a stadium build, if not, then we should rethink the new stadium investment and go for some sort of deal with Wasps.
