just reading the advertiser...apparently the Council are trying to get 'as many amateur or professional clubs to play there as possible to ensure all year usage'
It worries me this, I mean Amateur clubs? surely there should be an element of professionalism about it. I dont want that taken the wrong way.....but I mean..we need the pitch to be good standard.....and it to be a 'priviledge' to play at the staidum. I know WE are not in charge etc etc...but the way the council are talking....they'd probably let me use it to walk my dog on it, the way their going.
Another interesting point it made, if theres more tenants, we pay less tenancy costs..........which again worries me. Cos we pay nothing at the willows, yet here we'll be renting....so we'll be worse off. They take a cut from tickets, advertising etc etc . Also, what happens if we fall out with the staidum owners....we could be homeless like oldham/swinton were/are.
Anyone thinking we'd have ANY say in this stadium....ie naming bars/stands/or even having Salford Reds 'branding' around it, get thinking again. this is definately NOT salfords stadium......this is The councils/peels stadium....which their (for a fee) renting to us. I know this is the only way the club could go, but when people say....we'll build up slowly like warringotn....i cant see this....cos Im sure they own theres....not rent....so they will have MUCH more money
Now I have ranted on here...and Im sorry if I sound negative...I dont mean to be....but I just cant help but worry about this.
