The difference is the council. I've often thought we should go where we're actually welcomed as an amenity, rather than derided as a problem.

Correct, and vastly superior funds.

Thus, we had £100m in cash from the Americans but covid, Ukraine and further demands from Croydon knocked the price up to £150m. We had to find that £50m within financial rules.

Note, Everton deducted 2 points in a season where their financial woes were at least part caused by the unpredictable rising cost of their new stand. That is why it was only 2 points.

Had a look into Liverpool's costs which seems to have been 75 mil. Thinking of their ground, however, it's in what looks like a cheap area. I think Liverpool bought a lot of the housing for next to nothing at some stage. All of which is a problem for us at Selhurst - London prices really. I should look at how much Fulham have spent. That's in a more expensive area than Selhurst so was probably quite a bit.

 


Red and Blue Army!

This will do nothing to progress the club if it ever happens.

I am sure Jordan had similar plans when he got one over on Uncle Ron and purchased the ground.

My God, how clueless can someone be?

If someone can show a projected extra revenue vs cost projection then we can have a more informed view.

If the actual hard cost is 150M, how could the stand generate say 15M per year profit for a ten year pay back period.

I don't see SE 25 as somewhere that has been crying out for more company away day locations or hotel rooms.

IF it produces an additional 8000 seats, say the ST are 800 per year at todays prices, thats 6.4 M gross income , so less than half of the 15 M in the example

Perhaps there are tax benefits etc

HK - I think that there are supposed to be more corporate boxes & improved / additional premium entertainment available -
A current corporate box of 10 is about £3000 per game, no doubt that will rise to nearer £4000 to have the opportunity to experience a new box in the new main stand.
You can get a VIP ticket to include dinner & drinks in the restaurant at anything between £150 / £300 depending upon who we are playing, if you factor in the kind of new facilities that an upgraded main stand would bring I would imagine that the base price of £150 per person would level off at £200 per person & the upper limit would also go up proportionally.

All well and good, I wonder if anyone competent and not conflicted has done an objective forecast on this project

I don't think we have much choice, we have to rebuild the stadium and it's going to cost a lot of money. It's the price of doing business. No doubt ticket prices will go up.

From the owners perspective I still say the biggest hurdle to new money coming in is the rebuild. We all know how cost estimates rocket, once it is built potential investors will have a much clearer idea of our finances.

I would imagine a few have been done over the years, whether they are competent & unconflicted is another matter - I think the end result will become that in the euphoria of it being built / completed the write down period will become lost over a longer period but providing that we remain in the PL the debt will take care of itself over time by virtue of the product remaining very sellable / there are always people with money that want to watch PL football (if they dont want to watch Palace they will pay to see the opposition)

Obviously that mindset becomes a tad vulnerable if the ESL becomes a thing & the most popular teams go off playing in different leagues - but I think it will still be OK based upon the fact that very little is going down in price & soon people will have to pay more to watch non ELS teams.

It also didn't happen in 5 mins (I know not literally). There's so much that that has to go on behind the scenes apart from just planning permission (both before and after this) that people don't realise. I saw someone post previously that Fulham has gone quicker than palace that's just frankly ridiculous. The Fulham stand is also very expensive even without bucks going bust

Corporate events, prawn sandwich group packages, football tourism, and STs over £1k.

One issue is we are over reliant on TV. This seeks to rebalance the source of revenue.

But I agree. At a cost of £100m you can see it, but £150m??
