Who cares, so long as he can get his point across.

Anyway, back on topic, I'm sure today's announcement of a huge summer gig will produce a "timely boost" to the clubs coffers.

Looks like Remmington Mike may have finally found his calling, our very own Harvey Goldsmith.

That's the beauty of having your own ground you can hold concerts boxing matches some poor teams can't even train on there own pitch

Rovers really are doing a good job at making the lightstream much more than a rugby ground. After all, the ground needs to pay its way and rugby simply can't do this alone. And that's the beauty of having your own ground instead of being small tenants in a larger stadium.
I've noticed on Twitter tonight that shirt sales have surpassed the 1000 mark in just three days. Coupled with the 4000 season passes sold. It's not a bad effort from the fans at all.
All this good news is fantastic with all the doom and gloom we've had these last few years. Even Hudge in the HDM quoted that the club is on a very stable footing with the club turn over 'well ahead' of even last years efforts.

You would think owning your own ground ( I thought you didn't own it) and making all that money would give you a big finically advantage over us, doesn't look like it at the moment.

Sole tenants then Dave paying a peppercorn rent if it makes you feel better.
It looks like we are trying to be sustainable, and it was working before our horror season last year.
But being able to make decisions on events like the boxing, panto, and now this gig without having an SMC to put the spanner in the works makes the lightstream the go to arena in this city right now. Good on the club for diversifying.

Careful, the FC grammar policeman is lurking, you might get pulled for inventing a new word!

At least mine is a typo though, my grammar is always perfect.
