AFL and other Clubs can not and will not let Carlton just die off. The TV rights deal being one of the legal reasons and also the loss of a big money spinner to the other clubs (gate receipts) and the AFL being another.
If the AFL want the lease to MC Labour Park they will have to pay for it and...
Please refer to the original article link. WE ARE GOING TO GET ASSISTANCE!:D
Better get yourself down to the AFL commission and demand their resignations. I'll be listening to the news to hear of their imminient demise.:rolleyes:
I don't remember Carlton getting $10 million either. I wouldn't listen to any numbers being sprouted off, usually posters on here, until you hear something official. A decision on what assistance Carlton will receive has not been made.
As for legal action, I don't think the AFL has to worry...
Actually I'm abit embarrassed for him.:o
Don't know what the benefit of saying that was other than to make him look like a know it all. It wasn't the smartest thing to do which is why I think it could of been taken out of context. Damn papers!:D
Denis usually gives nothing away so its quite...
The MC Labour Park surface is not only marginally better than quite a few of those grounds you have mentioned. I'll give you the MCG, Kardinia and Box Hill but then Box Hill is not a stadium. How many people can you fit into those places compared to MC Labour Park?
If the AFL put abit of money...
Haha. The St Kilda Football Club will be long dead before the Blues go anywhere.:D You need to face reality, the AFL knows the potential a strong Carlton would be, so will help them. Once we are back on the up the likeliness of us getting into more financial trouble would be low and the AFL can...
Collingwoodrow. The Carlton Football Club do not actually own the ground but lease it from the Melbourne Council. The plan is to sell off the lease to the AFL as it is pointless for the club to be paying for the upkeep of the ground when they no longer play there. As they no longer play there...
Why even bring up this so called myth when it wasn't relevant to the thread. More of a thinly veiled attempt to get into Blues supporters. Why don't you just stick to the topic.:rolleyes:
And when are Carlton receiving this money? Has it been already decided? Did you read the link to the...
$10 million handout now? and why do the other AFL presidents need to be confided in before a decision on any assistance? Did other clubs which actually already receive assistance need the approval or notification of other clubs before receiving anything?
If the only thing the AFL are doing is buying out the lease to MC Labour Park then no strings should be attached as that is really a separate issue to actual monetary assistance.
What do you expect Carlton to say in regards to getting assistance? Of course if they needed/wanted money, then they...
Probably waiting until after the outcome of the AFL decision. Why put in $$$ when you know the AFL will.:D
Thats not the point though. They do not have an obligation to help!:D
AFL wanted Carlton out of Princes Park. They were not going to schedule any more games there once our contract (for number of games played there) with them ran out. They paid us off on the remainder of the contract to move, with Telstra Dome the AFL's preferred choice for us. The club had no...
What do the supporters thoughts of the club and the position the club have to do with if we receive a handout or not? Just because you (and other haters) would like to see the clubs' supporters get on their knees and beg and apologise before the club gets assistance, doesn't mean it will...
In 5-7 years time when your lot are back at home (i.e. bottom of the ladder and adding to your impressive spoon collection) and all your young bandwagon supporters have dropped off after realising you are the true 'career rabble club', you can look forward to seeing the Southport Saints...
Blues meet on finances
No word on what kind of assistance the club will receive but it does sound good for the club. :D
Thoughts on receiving assistance? I don't see why they shouldn't give some sort of help if they need it. The Carlton Football Club has helped alot in making the competition...
