And we made 40 fucking k 😏 the promoter takes a huge cut. the long term goal was for "us" to be the promoter. that was the only way to see the coin. i know this for a fact.

The club would have originally had the intention of providing all the food and drink facilities and making money from that including the corporate stuff, but as Heathcotes had jumped ship, and they had no means to employ staff the promoter had to fill all the gaps and then basically only paid to have the doors opened and closed by the club. The cost would have been far greater if they had failed to honour the contract in penalty charges etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the plan might have been to sell them the club's providers.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boby Brno Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 The £400000 is included in the accounts of the administrators since they took over the running of the club. It is possible but I have no way of knowing, that payments could have been paid when the concert was first organised. That would be in the accounts for last year that have not been published in detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club had the agreement with the council, which is still in place, to restrict any food and drink sales around the ground so that they could maximise the revenue. I am certain this was the same for Pink and Coldplay, and in a way put some promoters off because they wanted their cut of the profits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understood it the usual way was that the concert promoters pay a fee but then take the profits from the night.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s serious cash to Bolton Wanderers football club. Especially as a side project utilising an empty stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get £40k profit it 100% is worth it and all the hassle. we are a league 1 club. thats 2 / 3 admin staff paid for 12 months.

Big E Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 23 minutes ago, Mr Grey said: Any cash at this moment in time is obviously welcome, but I would assume any new owners would want to maximise any future profits. Whoever organised the recent events didn't do a good job imo. Whether it would a made a difference to the state of our club financially, I very much doubt it. Anyway, things are moving, hopefully all be completed sooner rather and later and we can get on with discussing the football, which at the end of the day is what us fans are here for. Go on.....i will play. How did they do a bad job ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
