part of the two-way deal is that King Georges will receive the services of our groundsmen as well. There's more in it for the Council than for us so that should appease the clap happy brigade but we also get discounted services.

Well done all involved

What do you mean theres more in it for the council than us ????????? blimey & eric's happy with that

when they sponsored the kits the town wasn't happy because all they saw was a load of money spent. Now they are getting the services of professional groundstaff as well as advertising on the shorts, programme and the junket tickets they use. for entertaining clients of course!

Aren't most of us clients of Hyndburn Council. Does these mean I get a freebie ?

Does this mean we can afford to sort our defence out then

On the face of it seems like a decent deal

As one who always says the Club should have stronger ties with the Council maybe a step in the right direction for more prominence in the Town/Borough

very positive move.

Wirral council see Tranmere as a prized possession, one of the few things to put the area on the national map.

lets hope Hydburn can see the potential in Stanley and do the same.

"The club will receive the cash for two seasons on the provision that it uses it to pay the council for the use of training facilities and rental for the Fraser Eagle stadium."

So have I got this right? The Council gives the club money and the club gives it back. Hmmm.

Illiterate moaning has started already....

Nice to see Hyndburn & Stanley moving in the right direction,more of the same please.

Whilst i'd agree that any financial input to our club helps, for my mind it falls a long way short of what this club needs. £19,000 ??? So what does that pay ?? Half a weeks wages ?? (IF THAT !!)

IF the towns council, under whatever name it wishes to be named,cared about the future of one of it's main assetts, they would be doing a damn sight more than proffering a measly £19 k.

Sponsoring shorts ??? What about laying free busses on to the Interlink (which they own)for fans, or even a bit of council subsidy for ground improvements ?? The club is going to have to find some serious money in the next 18 months just to satisfy league requirements.
