Get in there Tony. The Reactive Stand.

Why don't the council also rent out a club shop for the footy lot. Oh, hang on.......

Like the bit at the end from the councillor, basically says if you dont want someone else involved with the stadium then we will put your rent up, simple.

I agree this is just the new Conservative Council leadership flexing its muscles, I do think that the South Stand annex needs completing and using for an income stream plus a hotel would be a good idea but I can't see it on the Skircoat Road side as its full of trees and slopes a better site is the land at the back of the South Stand and the overflow car park putting a new entrance further down Shay Syke.
But no to increasing the rent for both clubs and once again they should charge the same as Fax are reducing their usage I understand, all will become clear soon.

A hotel?
Council offices?
Rent out to business?
Improve the exteria appearance of the ground?
Now where did I hear that?
Mmmm
O'h yes on the night Mr Abbott put his proposals forward.
An unnamed business has shown interest?
Well the courier isn't going to say Rxxxxxxx Mxxxx is it?

Oh there will. Don't you worry. Anything seen as an attack on their predominantly rented "home"

I agree with the opening sentence though Cllr Baines is much more realistic about the Shay than Cllr Swift. It was Stephen Baines who had the balls to get the funding for completing the East Stand.

What they need to realise however is that both clubs are an asset to the town. Its OK talking about upping the rent of both clubs but they need to appreciate the sporting, social and economic benefits the clubs bring into the town and not just the fact that the stadium requires a subsidy each year.

Absolutely Bubba, they really need to think of the effect if neither club were there and how much would be lost in terms of income from the smaller local businesses. The pubs, cafés etc. which pay their rents to the council would be affected, they need to think of the bigger picture when looking at this type of thing.
