Rent by year

Does anyone have a breakdown of the rent we have paid by year or if not a total?

I seem to recall someone had done a final total fairly recently and think it was around Ā£10.5M but I could be wrongā€¦

Someone with more information than I will answer you more accurately Iā€™m sureā€¦

Needs someone with a long memory. @Pedagogue might be able to assist.

I correct myself - I said a final total,that of course should have said either an up to date total or a running total!!!

Itā€™s of course a gift that just keeps giving for JB and the family :frowning:

Canā€™t we have some kind of counter showing on the site which shows how much rent has been paid in real time? :thinking::wink:

Thatā€™s what I want to do, as a twitter account but an accumulator on here would be superb

Would be great if there was a way to put a ā€˜Pension Pot Fundā€™ counter/ticker in the top corner of the WSFC website somehow. Guess youā€™d have to work out exactly how much has gone in so far and work out how much it would be per second and do it that way, no idea. Would be pretty good though.

Was any justification ever given for the huge jump 2015-16 ?

Interesting that the increase is below RPI for the same period.

Increase in 63.8% on rent
RPI is 64.4%

Mightā€™ve been some tweaks to RPI, although note the rent break after 2012 which would affect that. Take that out and it would be aheadā€¦

Quick mental calculations = just shy of Ā£6m in 18 years

Cos why shouldnā€™t I?

Anyway - Luton, Bournemouth, Rotherham are just down the road.

And that is why he will never sell - Ā£6m at 3% interest? or 450k per annum no questions asked.

training ground.

The training ground was the Ā£50k p/a increase around 2008/9, and also, I think that Ā£50k goes to Essington Parish Council

So, Ā£6.8M (ish) in return for his initial outlay (a few hundred grand??) not a bad return on an investment thatā€¦

Interesting that the sharp drop in 2013 followed by a few years at lower rate then came the big increase of Ā£120k more (to claw back what had been missed no doubt!) and then it remains fairly consistent thereafter from 2016ā€¦

Love the idea of having a counter at the top of the web page - but think it may end up irritating us even more!!

I thought one year it was exactly Ā£365k? Thatā€™s where the ā€œEeee, itā€™s a grand a dayā€ joke came from.

It doesnā€™t work as well now ā€œEeee, itā€™s a grand and (just short of) a quarter a dayā€ :wink:

At some point it wiii hit 730k so the maths will be easy again!
