Corby's budget is



£330K :shock: :shock:

KTFC paid Corby a £5K bond and £1000 a game for hiring their facilities, and the CTFC chairman says they've asked to play their home games there until Christmas.

According to Kevin Ingram, but how would he know? :shock: He even said that CTFC receive a yearly maintenance grant of £90,000, however Chris Stephenson who is CBC Leisure Services Chief corrected him and said it is only £38,500. Sounds like Ingram hasn't got his finger on the pulse.

I wouldn't be surprised to see them continue with this arrangement for the rest of the season - as an amateur club paying only expenses to the players, and staffed by volunteers. If they pay Corby £1K for each game at Steel Park they'll make enough profit if their gates don't drop much below 300 to pay the CVA and outstanding commitments / match fees / expenses for away games.

It will thus depend on whether KC issues a winding-up order for non-payment of the Nene Park commitments in the lease.

Does anyone know who the guarantor was for our lease at NP once KC had left? Or wasn't there one?

During the period that the Beasants were in charge there was never any information or discussion on this forum as to what the rent may have been. Wouldn't surprise me if KC didn't receive any rent during this period. When he chaired the 'crisis' meeting he said certain things that should have happened (with regard to the Beasants) hadn't happened. I presumed he was referring to some sort of payment that he agreed prior to takeover.

The quoted figure relates to the yearly cost in running their club.

Their wage bill is actually:-

Playing, coaching staff and ground staff £155,000

If a coach to Buckingham is £300 what on earth will it cost to go down to Bideford?

They're total mugs.

Next they'll be asked to pay the electric bill and the rent at Nene Park to halt a winding up order.

Do you think KC will be mean enough to issue a winding-up order against KTFC for the rent? Or won't he be that bothered about the measly rent money because he's knows how much development will bring in?
