If TK freely admitted to receiving a marketing budget then he didn't do a very good job of keeping the bribe a secret. Unless of cause it wasn't a bribe but a marketing budget.
Yep...because the other 13 stadiums owners all received the same "marketing budget" didn't they?
The Marketing Budget/sweetener/bribe/incentive...call it whatever makes you feel warm and fuzzy.....this PAYMENT was used to get the deal across the line.......

The question is where is your evidence that this marketing budget is the reason for a possible renegotiation of Broncos stay because so far I've seen nothing to back this up. Don't you think poor attendances and relegation might have more to do with the relationship between Hive and Broncos?
I never said it was the reason for the renegotiation. I simply said AK/The Hive weren't happy to continue with 2014's arrangement into 2015. Relegation and poop crowds were bolted on when the first deal was done by the way....that's why the deal was for ONE YEAR.
The calls for "proof/evidence" are pointless BTW. I have (on my own and with information leaked to me) been pretty much spot on at every stage of the deconstruction of the club since 2010....believe what makes you sleep better.....a 1,250 average paying at the gate with his bars/cafes etc making the residuals hasn't floated AK's boat in 2014......2015's attendances will be half that and he wants more than this year has delivered.....you don't need a calculator to figure out that somebody will be paying more money next year....and it won't be AK!
