I think the view is that the club are trying to build a sustainable revenue stream by having better corporate and hospitality will in turn help the football through having more money.
I agree with this philosophy. We can spend money on players which may or may not pay off, but investing in guaranteed revenue streams will help us in the long term.
Fewer people will be inclined to do corporate with little known teams in division 2 so not a great revenue stream there.plus on non match days how many people are going to troop up to HP and hold an event,very few apart from dog walkers....all pie n the sky...meanwhile take a look at our league position....
It doesnāt matter what division Argyle play in for the conference facilities to be a success.. itās about the quality and size of the facilities which I think will be the biggest south west (not including Bristol) Iām sure there are plenty of companies that would want to use facilities of this size. Also Weddings Would bring income.

Not just the reception - the whole day

Surely the question should be how many places in Plymouth have conference facilities?
Conferences are more about location than anything.
Quite. We had our wedding reception at HP many moons ago and thoroughly enjoyed it - even if there was a minor hiccup with the catering ( which the club generously compensated us for and threw in 2 Hospitality packages too!). Iād highly recommend it as a venue, even more so when the new facilities are in place. :thumbup:Biggs":2hhzym96 said:And... I know this is shocking... but there are men AND women who would love to have their wedding and a variety of other significant events at Home Park.
Funnily enough, a rotting hunk of concrete wasnāt the most appealing setting for those people, but a high quality banqueting facility will be.
There just isnāt a downside for making the grandstand and Home Park in general as nice as it can possibly be, itās completely baffling to read people say otherwise.

Absolutely, even if that comes with a relegation. It would be a step back to take two forward.
