[parramatta_eels_123]

did anyone go my friend went but i couldnt get much out of him did any of u go can u tell me wat they said but i did get one thing out of him that parramatta stadium will be runed by telstra stadium next year

 

[Nikki]

Wha??

 

[Hellsy]

MITS will have gone and I'm sure he will give us all a run down when he is next online

 

[Hurriflatch]

So does that mean Souths will be playing at Parra Stadium next year :lol:

 

[Hurriflatch]

I'm guessing what is meant is that Parra stadium will be sold to the people who control Telstra Stadium.


Who currently owns Parra Stadium

Is it the council or the leagues club??

 

[Hellsy]

The board have had troubles with the Stadium trust for awhile now, this doesn't surprise me at all

 

[Twizzle]

bloody politics

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

didn't we have a 99 year lease on it?

 

[Hellsy]

I think it is moreso that we may be looking at having someone come in and run it, not own it.

But it is all speculation till someone who was there can actually come in and tell us what was spoken about

 

[Angry_eel]

what? are we moving to telstra as well?

 

[Hurriflatch]

Better bloody not be


or Dennis will be getting a least 1 swift kick in the nuts

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

hopefully whoever comes in can be convinced to remove the seats on the Hills

 

[V1er]

So if its true will parra stadium get a sponsour as its name, hope its not the crazy johns stadium

 

[Hellsy]

what? are we moving to telstra as well?

Listen to what was said.....

parramatta stadium will be runed by telstra stadium next year

Nowhere does it say "MOVING TO"

yes i know it sounded weird to me. one stadium being run by another stadium. Since i couldn't grasp what was happening from that i assumed we were moving or something. Sorry Hells. :crazy::crazy:

 

[Hellsy]

It is no different to a company running another company.
Don't apologise, just don't panic

 

[eelaholic]

I thought something was up at the football office when we drove past it tonight. I thought it was odd that it was all lit up. Now it all makes sense

 

[HayneHindi]

If they are going to rename the stadium, lets name it the Nathan Hindmarsh stadium. There is already a Hindmarsh stadium in Adelaide so we have to use both of his names.

The meeting they are talking about is the Supporters Club Meeting.
MITS told me last week it was on and Ovo spoke about it on Sat nite.
It is usually held in the Leagues Club though so maybe someone was working late finding new signings for us at the Footy Office

 

[MarkInTheStands]

Sorry Guys, I wasn't there. You would have to look into the night sky to figure out why.

Some of the Fact's I do know.

Ovo and Denis are on the board of the trust.

Both approved a $100,000 upgrade to the medical facilities at the Stadium

The NSW government believe that having Ovo and Denis on the Trust and spending money when Parramatta is the only occupant, is a conflict of interest.

Ovo has also been dealing with a new replacement for the GM of the Stadium, and last I spoke with him they were looking at hiring someone, interveiws were completed.

Also the Supporters club wants to see Railings put on all the stairs at the stadium to allow "Girls with High heals" and "People like us (Read over 65) who have mobility problems" not to fall down or twist an ankle when walking up or down the stairs.

Maybe the GM at Telstra has been hired as the GM at the Stadium.

I guess I will have to try and find out.
