But if you have to pay a 6 pointer £200 a point in his place that's £1200..So you could argue he's an extra £2300 per meeting. 209 fans @ £22 covers the extra home and away (£4600).. People will come to watch the likes of Nicki P...etc ....brings the fans in ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then last year it was poor. Takes an exciting team that put on good performances people will part with there money for that, not the shambles we had last year. Home fans want to see a winning team ...ok we all want to see a close match ..but a home team victory ...people will come to watch big names ....and Nicki will always put your gate up ...or someone like that ....

Have to admit there was a few occasions last summer I didn’t bother, watching a team made up of 4 regulars, two guests and R/R…I’ll save my money thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 Sums are a little less simplistic when saying how many extra fans are required to pay for him. You need an average sum for the equivalent rider that would be in the team on a similar average. I can't see many rider's on a per point rate on a similar average accept less than £200. On a rough 7.00 average the ordinary Joe would earn £1,800+ inc bonus points per meeting. Nicki P wouldn't take bonus point money on fixed rate so would be £500pp. 9/10 sponsorship will cover the difference rather than people through the gate.

TTT Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 This isn't an expensive 6 either when you compare it to other teams so surely the money is available to fund a move for Nicki P?

wealdstone Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 Do not understand the clamour for NP , past his best and not ridden since serious injury, just do not know what you are going to get. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cook Jenkins (RS) True...and if u want to get anywhere in this league u need a good number 1....especially in heats 13 and 15 ....look at Ipswich with J Doyle...They only had 1 decent heat leader last year and they did well..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 3 hours ago, Bald Bloke said: 159 new fans at £22 = £3498. That sounds doable to me. £22 admission = something like £18.37 + VAT. You also have to pay for away meetings, air fares other travel cost & mechanics. Team mates may want extra payments to be in the same heats as Nicky!
