Looks like no concessions and the West Upper closed completely...

    What did Pearsons money man say about that. Go look it up.
    In a nutshell.
    why will we lose them next season?
    How can more disabled spaces be created chilton? Would it need major work to do that or an easy solution?

    I was referring to the 2 wheelchair platforms in the Upper West. We'll still have 8 platforms in the lower bowl.

    I've no idea what it would take create more - but if they did and they were on the first level then more lifts would be needed as well.

    So if Allam tripled the price of tickets, food and drink you would just stump up?

    There were wheelchair platforms in upper west!! Thought that would have been ano go cos of health n safety.

    I could see it being a big job to do that. Must be difficult for older stadiums too.

    If we get relegated, PL guidelines not applicable.

    How do you feel about the enhanced lighting we have at the KCOM?

    Not only did they not refute it, they were quoted in the article confirming it

    Meaningless verbiage. What makes it possible to play more games on the same pitch in the football league? Guidelines are nothing to do with it. Allam tripled the price. That is the only reason it isn't being played there. Nothing to do with guidelines, protecting the pitch or anything else.

    I'll take your word for it.

    Did you pop round to Melton or did he phone you up?

    There has been no other reason given why it isn't going to be played for. Allam didn't say you can't play here because of stringent
    PL rules but you can if we get relegated to tge less stringent football league. He tripled the price and if the ERCFA. RCFA had paid it would have gone ahead. So all this guff about stringent standards, two clubs using the pitch is absolute B/S.

    Premier League guidelines say it's okay to play a rugby league game the night before a Premier League game, but playing a local cup game after the Premier League finishes would be unacceptable?

    It doesn't really matter what the Premier League guidelines say anyway, the Allams make a point of doing the opposite.

    There's just been a statement on RH from the SMC, apparently they're going to start talking to the East Riding FA now...




    ...about next years final.

    Perhaps you post a link to the PL 2016/2017 Manual so we can know for sure....

    The price to hire the stadium is 5k. ERCFA have know it is that price because it has been so for the last two years. The SMC say at that price the 5k just covers costs and they do not look to make a profit from the event.
    If you hire a venue for a wedding it will cost you 5k, I've seen marquees for hire at that price for a weekend.
    I don't think the ERCFA are exactly short for 5k.
    The SMC showed a huge loss last year and I would presume measures have been taken to ensure that doesn't happen on a regular basis.
    As for 'stumping up'. A lot of stuff has increased in price over the last three years, some I have no option and have to stump up, other stuff I now don't buy.
    Basics of life. If you want it you stump up.

    If the Allams decided today, that next seasons memberships would start at £1,000 each, would you just say 'no problem, people need to pay it or **** off?'.

    You keep quoting the stringent PL guidelines which, not the price issue, prevent the game being played. Surely you have a copy of said manual?
