I saw Wardrop's name on this and felt that, even if it is a good thing, the petition is tainted by association. I'm not ready to sign it as I am not a member of that club but if i were i would put any personality issues to one side and sign. Is there a possibility that better counter proposals can be brought forward? The space is limited and, to me, the opportunities to generate cash are equally limited so the only good reason for changing things is to look at the experience and to to also consider the cost v benefits of membership to make it more attractive.
As a serious question, aside from a desire to make more money from the lounge and it's facilities, what else is on the table in terms of generating revenue from non-football activities? Kibble came in with a plan to use their business and charitable expertise, alongside their access to young people needing to develop skills and experience, that would drive up revenue from the club's facilities. I'd appreciate it if anyone had the time to share details on what has been done and how much it has raised for the club.
The dome was an asset to the playing & coaching staff and since it was destroyed the small amount of revenue it raised from rentals has been lost. In addition, the plot it sat on is now an eyesore. Is there any plan that anyone knows about to redevelop that area? I know club turnover is up, is that all due to prize money & ticket sales or are we generating additional cash in other areas? People keep saying that on budget size we are 10th but manage to be around 6th place most years, can that continue when clubs like Hearts get sorted out (as they most likely will) without a major increase in revenues at Greenhill Road?
