What does Andy Moulsdale think is a reasonable fee - and breakdown of figures ?

Newport County are apparently charged £7k a game and expected to pay for the upkeep of the pitch after use.

2 rugby teams and a football club play at Rodney Parade.

The fee is excessive, especially for a side that attracts small crowds, taking all takings for food is taking the p*ss!

When he told Dixie about the £9,000 a game rent he hit the roof, not at all happy to hear about the way we are being treated.

Where do they get these figures from, I've heard it's £15k to hire Cardiff City stadium!

Shrewd businessmen we have.

Dianne Abbott crunching the figures again.
£100 k a year rent Divided by say 25 games = £4000 / game on my calculator.

Its not that at all. I don't have any interest in The Crusaders other than to remember the stain left by a club of that name by a previous regime at The Racecourse.

Should the current Crusaders wish to pay to play
at the Racecourse its fine as long as the deal is a tight one
and WFC gain financially. One would hope that any discussions
taking place are shared with WST membership. There should be no
commercial confidentiality from the fans point of view.
