Anyone see the article last night, it stated that we only took in �27,000 in gate receipts last season, anyone reckon it was a misprint

out of all the positives in that article you took the one negative!!!!! ha

what are the chances of gaining planning permission for the north stand? i hope we get it because seats on that side without a stand would be a disaster!!!!!!

27000 would mean that at 12 yoyo in adults lets say 80% adults and 20% kids taht would amount to very rough maths but 3000 people all year paying in for home games! would that be unreasonable?

Thats less than 200 paying people per game, Dundalk towards end of season had to have had at least 1500 alone as there was a large crowd from Dundalk if i remember correctly. Would Derry gate in league cup be counted in gate receipts, at least 2000 at that even though I think Derry would have got 40% of gate approx.Just saying it seems like a typo

Misprint I'd say. Will check it out later. As far as I know the North Stand issue is sorted and work is beginning in June from what I hear. However, June really seems like an odd time to start as it'll certainly affect us getting near capacity crowds. Also heard that there is a 2000 seater going in around the club house area, which is supposed to be being levelled.

All my comments above are of course unofficial and third party

that would mean there was only around 2700 people all season, absolute trash. there was 2700 at the 2 biggest games of last year, and then theres the other 10 to 15 home games. wat about the derry league cup game, there was 1500 to 2000 at that alone, minimum 15 grand there. i dont know where they're gettin these figures. the dundalk game was at least 1500, 2000 at last home game against monaghan, then there was shels, harps all these averaging 800 for the season.

Did they get an €800,000 grant from the FAI aswell? I havn't read the article so i'm going by what I heard on the grapevine.

It will be amazing if it happens but I assume that the underground bar will be the members bar and upstairs will be the public bar.

Done a quick calc, based on 1200 Dundalk, 1800 Monaghan (quoted numbers at the time) and an average of 350 for the other 14 home games. Average entry fee taken as �9, allowing for kids, OAPs and freebies. Works out at �71,100. Maybe �27k was meant to be �72k?

Heard from builders of south stand that the planning for the north stand was granted by the Town Council but appealed by some banjo in Kirkwood Villas. :mad: Not sure when the final decision is coming...

West stand plans sound class! :cool:

From my understanding of the situation it's a €27,000 profit on matchday expenses.

You have €71,100 income and your expense i.e garda, referees, security, etc...... come to a total expense of €44,100. Resulting in a matchday profit of €27,000.

Thats my theory on it anyway.
