When City and Hull moved in, I can remember the term peppercorn rent being thrown around and that both clubs would pay a small amount per season for the first few years, well it's almost ten years now, so the question is when is the council going to charge the going rate for playing in such a facility rather than "just a few thousand a year?"
Absolute garbage. SMC accounts show SMC gets over a million a year rental income from City. I think you're confused. Peppercorn rental is however the correct term for the lease on Craven Park.
