How much a month is the deal worth?
No where near what can be generated by keeping it in house?
IMO
Its one of the few revenue streams we have.
That's giving it away for me!

Whatever the deal is, it will be worse than selling your own, however a regular annual income up front or a monthly income could be more useful to the club when we go a long time without a meaningful home game and no or little food and beverage income.
I would say it comes at some cost.

I'm not revealing that on here.
But we negotiated a sum based on what we had sold in previous seasons so that it was guaranteed. We probably lost out on last nights game but bear in mind that it was originally going to be on a cold day in spring. I doubt sales would have been very high that day.

Damned if we do. Damned if we don't.

Seems like the club made a sensible decision and without knowing the figures it would be stupid to make assumptions. There will be other days it'll be beneficial but we won't have people crowing about it on here. We're very much a glass empty set of fans again it seems!

We now play in front of 10k not 5k
It's 100% profit for the club with little overheads staff/supplies.
The mark up on the bottom line makes it worthwhile.
Did the 3rd party supplie the sheds/containers?
Are we charging rent??
Do we take a % of total sales???
Or is it a set price a month????

A glass was about all you could your hands on last night!
Plastic of course

Does this mean we don't control how they chose to sell it and who to, but are ultimately responsible for the fallout?

We've had 1 10k+ crowd in the 3 years I've been involved! And that was last night!

You sound surprised?


We got 10k

Interesting and based on your understanding of the contracting out of our food and beverages outlets and knowledge of the value of said deal, would you care to elaborate?

Elaborate on what?

He's that fury character who walks round the pitch with a big head


I don't know how he types with the size of them claws


Is he not?

He wants to know "who you are" tell him to stop being nosey.


In fact tell him you are Daddy Cool.

I am daddy cool

Done!

How would a fluffy mascot know the ins and outs of the financial implications of such a deal?
Hasn't daddy cool been around a lot longer than three years

"Involvement"

He's the one negotiating the deals!
This explains a lot!!

Are we not getting shut of this catering firm at the end of the season anyway?

He's using an alias. A bit like yourself. (again ...)

It appears we have only taken them on this season.

With all due respect, do I need to explain that to you?

All I did was point out that we don't actually take in the money from wet sales contrary to popular belief

With all due respect you brought it into the conversation.
If you have no involvement that is fine, if you do others may see that as a conflict of interest.

A conflict of interest? Pointing out something that wasn't actually correct? Dear me

Wasn't the last catering firm one of the recent CCJ's.....

A conflict of interest if you are an employee of the club is what I was suggesting.
You may not be, although I would argue for a supporter of three years you know a lot about the dealings of this particular issue?
I'm more than happy to be wrong.

Yup!!
