Guys, tell me if I completely mad in suggesting this.
But should we consider playing games at Arden St. I mean seriously investigate wether it is feasible or not.
Not for the big stuff, but just the little games where we're guaranteed a small crowd.
Instead of handing over 150k to Collo and the Docklands fat cats, would it be better to put that money into Arden St and play a game there?
Surely it wouldn't cost more then 150k to hire some tempfences, grandstands and some security.
I know from the redevelopment plans, that the new HQ is going to include 2 sets of changerooms and a kiosk and canteen. So that covers catering and changerooms for the umpires/opposition team.
Add in the fences/grandstand and we're basically ready to roll, and anything we make on the day from gatetakings is an added bonus.
Thoughts all?
