Here's a question. If K*ttering can afford to play at Nene Park, then what in gods name is this Pickering fella charging? Must be astronomical.

Good idea fund raise all year to pay the rent and then get volunteers to cut the grass paint the stands and clean the seats, then every other Saturday we could go and pay to sit and watch the grass grow. :lol:

Pickering's charging 17% of their gate receipts and if they were to re-negotiate with him for another lease it would probably be more since I think he wants to build housing on it. K*ttering would be getting 700 max at NP and would have to be paying the £50k rent (or possibly more), that's not sustaining full-time football so Ladak would have to be propping them up and no one seems to know whether he's got any cash left.

Apparently KTFC can..!
We've raised 50k. IF we better advertise the pixels, plus explore other fundraising avenues for a WHOLE YEAR, surely we can afford to pay this £52k a year? Admittedly i'm not sure about the playing budget but at least we'd have NP ;) .
KC says we've only raised 8K... :?

8K?! The fans game plus Mad Dog's (generous) donation account for 1/8th of that.

KC says he's the biggest creditor ;)
Seems to me he saw this coming and that's why he made the 'business' choice in the Beasants.
Diamonds go bust, other debts written off, he is left with the stadium, grounds etc and then can dispose of them, possibly recouping his loses - maybe and allegedly

I think it's quite easy to transport stands now, I suppose he could sell them individually.
