Thought this had been stopped ?

Postby globalbollox » Fri Oct 29, 2010 7:22 pm

Had a quick search but couldn't find anyone talking about the fact that Take That are appearing at the stadium in June for six nights.
That'll flatten any bumps on the pitch !
On another note check out the prices . Fknll !!!!

Of course. But didn't someone from the club say at one time that the ground would be used for football only ?

They did but that was before the new rules. Probably an offer that couldn't be refused.

Especially as we have now agreed to a one off payment to the council for rent.

This could be ours all ours...:-)

Unfortunately, luckily more like. It's normal script, they hire the venue and we get paid whatever. I bet we've got first dibs on selling a few pies.

They should host an Antiques Roadshow on the pitch.

If Clatternburg's in charge they'll probably beat us.

I was never a huge supporter of stopping concerts. Mid-season maybe, but early out of season is perfect. Couple of million quid for the club that doesn't come out of our pockets and loads of people get to have a good time at a top venue.

I wonder what Paul Lake thinks about holding concerts on football pitches.

Was it not stopped because work was needed on the pitch or something & now they've totally changed the way they do it?
