the price of colonial stadium

[pepe]

david smorgan the western bulldogs president has released a report today stating the expense of calling colonial stadium your home ground.

the dogs lost 90k for the clash against fremantle which attracted a crowd of 15 000,now the storm are attracting an average of 12 000,so one does'nt need to be einstein to work out we are digging our own grave by playing there,ribot and johns should be made accountable for the fine mess they have got us in,surely any other form of business and they would be out on there backsides.

i hope we have a better arrangement with colonial than the afl clubs but you would assume not.

prices at colonial are-afl outer $14, league $17.50

cheers pepe

According to Ribot he said they only needed 6,000(I think) to break even on the Sunday Footy Show about a month ago.I really can't believe this especially after what you have said and also I don't take what comes out of Ribot's mouth as gospel.
When Ribot denies Storm are going to the GC I notice that most,if not all people on the MSSC Board believe this as if it's fact.Ribot has said many a thing and they aren't always true.
I think he once said that every SL game would be an event.Sure Reebs.

unfortunatly i did'nt see the interviewas i'mbased in melbourne,ribot and johns in private must realise the serious extent of the problem but being the people that they are the truth will never be known to us supporters.

we the storm are a franchise and not a club,in time we will be bidded offand relocated to the city or town who wins the bid,this is the way things are done in the good ol usa unfortunatly.
