It’s okay Iv’e heard now the suits have gone their all going to be wearing the left over tea shirts etc from Wembley due to poor sales and the catastrophic cup run.
And to keep it on thread they might be opening a charity shop in Widnes.

So we'll have to rely entirely on gate receipts and additional income streams from other activities? Then the Council really does need to "donate" the Shay to both the soccer and rugby clubs, thus scrubbing the rent and allowing us to extract some more cash from what is at the moment a white elephant.

I've said this for a long time now and it's not as radical as it may seem at first glance. The council don't want The Shay. To them it's not a sporting venue it's not a commercial opportunity, it's just a millstone around their necks which they haven't the nouse or will to exploit. Get a watertight covenant to ensure sporting use of the land written out and either give both clubs a hundred year lease on the ground or give it them outright and tell them to get on with it. Seriously why not?
Hear All, See All, Say Nowt. Eat All, Sup All, Pay Nowt. And if Tha ever does Owt for Nowt, Allus do it for Thissen.
