Dean (hick) Saunders Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) Anyone in the right line of work able to describe to those that aren’t at what level of rent it would need to be to make sound business sense (stadium rent back) for the kind of figures we are talking? With interest rates being so low, then if it is a better figure (ROI) than in bank (or other investment options) then it presumably should be ok for fans or non fans. ?♂️ Edited April 3, 2022 by Dean (hick) Saunders CBRammette 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poynton ram Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Appreciate we may be a L1 club next season but what sort of money would we get for sponsorship and stadium naming rights? Anyone know the value of the 32Red deal? Mods please move to different thread as appropriate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverurie Ram Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Time for the fans to own the stadium? C'mon someone start a crowd funder? once Jack thingymabob, George Clooney, One Direction, Robert Lindsay, Bloke off Tiswas, and all the other super rich supporters put in some cash, we can then all add in what we can afford, and we'll soon have the 20 Million quid or enough for a new strip for next season, so we all have something to wear for our summer holidays. And the so called life long fan (biggest joke of this whole shirade) can invest his 20 Million quid or our 20 Million quid into something else that he makes out he is a life long fan of, (corruption?) and we all live happily ever after.

Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Duck the stadium, just play behind closed doors at Moor Farm until it gets sorted and leave Mel with a 30k stadium and see what use he gets. Id rather ground share with Alfreton Town and watch it on Rams TV 1967RAMS and Tamworthram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few of us keep mentioning this but would need Team Derby to back and set up to give credibility for larger donations. This would be perfect Inverurie Ram and Miggins 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are going to become sustainable, 20,000 plus ticket sales and all the other match day spend will be an important part of this. Playing at Burton etc is a non starter, how many more times does it have to be said… Curtains and Tamworthram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Securing business rates on top even better. Then you have other users.. matchday franchisees, Greggs, Frank Warren but really that is tip of the iceberg. Plus a lot of potential. A no brainer for me especially as the Council can borrow money from Government. It really has nothing to do with Council spending budget because this isn't Council spending.

What's the day to day running costs for the stadium? I'm sure the £1m isn't pure profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Quite happy for Derby City Council to use taxpayers money to buy the football ground seeing as I don't live in the parish I don't give a monkeys if it affected other services but those whom it did affect might have a say so. If I was asked to subsidise my local council buying the City Ground for example then would take great exception to this. Why are we looking at creative solutions when the answer is quite clear - Morris has to do the decent thing to solve the mess he's created.

Kathcairns Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 1 hour ago, GboroRam said: I can't see the council buying the ground. What with the obscene amounts of money involved in football, it potentially looks a bit tone deaf to spend 8 figure sums helping out a football team at a time everyone has to tighten their belts. Plus every non-football fan will say it's a waste of taxpayers' money. But there are a lot of fans in Derby, who probably do not agree with what the council spend our money,on so I reckon at the end of the day its swings and roundabouts and don't forget the rams bring a lot of business into the city.

VulcanRam Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 The amount of money the council has pissed up the wall on the A52 road widening and bridge plus the relentless "consultancies" on the Assembly Rooms, probably could have paid for the stadium alone with that. I have no problem Derby City Council buying the ground, but they'd probably end up buying Subway next door by mistake. i-Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angieram Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 1 hour ago, Ramos said: Isn’t it more about what the football club means economically for the city and the businesses that rely on the football club for business etc etc? If the council bought the ground that’s essentially what they are trying to save in the long run. Exactly. It didn't stop Manchester City Council or whatever they are called from owning the Etihad!
