As for the above, I'm pretty sure they have rules around what's fair and reasonable for a connected party to pay for sponsorship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Wednesdays issue is related to how the reported the sale and accounting. Our issue is was the valuation realistic. if someone else pops up to buy it for the cost Mel payed it's going to be hard to say it isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G STAR RAM Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 6 hours ago, cheron85 said: Possible, but I'd suggest more challenging to justify Currently (I assume) we rent the ground for game days only - Meaning any revenue we generate on game day (ticket sales, food, drink, corporate etc) would presumably be for the club Other revenue sources suggest are things like gigs - Which the stadium would host - However it would be difficult to argue that the club were renting the stadium that day in order to host a gig - I'm not sure that's feasible TBH Dont think this is correct. If DCFC lease the ground it will be for a period of so many years, not just odd days. The ground will be DCFCs to do what they want with it, obviously subject to the terms of the lease.

I'd be amazed if some marketing consultantcy couldn't advise the EFL on what might be a reasonable market rate based on similar venues, locations and size of advertising screen/board.

Like say, a Swiss Turkish Billionaire Hedge Fund Owner perhaps? It's all stupid anyway - the Profit & Sustainability rules are supposed to be their to ensure that clubs live within their means, don't overspend and don't go bust. Where is the sense in punishing clubs with points deductions, fines or relegation? It's a daft as when the bank charge you for going overdrawn - sending you further into overdraft.. We surely also have a conflict of interest as Stephen Pearce - our CFO currently sits on the EFL Board of Directors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you have the Gatland (sprinter situation) where he gets caught twice, gets two suspensions and comes back with all the benefits of his previous bad behavior. I understand the point that the punishment could ultimately result in a situation that they are trying to 'legislate' against but there has to be a punishment of some sort as a deterrent. As with the bank, don't spend what you don't have. If you use other people's money expect to pay for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really know TBH - just that the current P&S rules (and the FFP rules before that) don't seem fit for purpose.

Didn't all this start due to HMRC concerns that they were not preferred to the same degree as with any other business? I do sort of get it, we don't want new owners committing clubs to unsupported costs in a gamble for promotion; walking away when it doesn't work out.

Depends on the terms of the lease - The cheapest way to lease a ground (which I assume is what we've done) is to lease for only match days - Otherwise you're paying for days you're not using it I suppose in theory we could change the terms of the lease later down the line when there is more opportunity to generate revenue - However with the way the EFL are scrutinising everything at the moment I'd suggest they'd stamp down on that pretty quickly I think the most likely would be Morris' new company adapts the stadium and generates some profit for him - And when/if we get promoted we used some of the vast TV revenues to buy the ground back On 05/12/2019 at 22:26, TommyPowel said: So ok you set the price of being able to sell advertising space around PP?
