GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 [ QUOTE ] How long has Graham used Mitchell? I played in the early 80's and we played at Mitchell then. Say they started using Mitchell in 1980.....assuming the rent was ~$20,000 for 10 years and increased to ~$30,000 during the 90's and once again increased to ~$40,000 at year 2000......grand total.......$~780,000.00 that's a handsome ransom. [/ QUOTE ] Graham has been using Mitchell Stadium since at least the early/mid 70's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And rent for years was about 15,000.It only raised to the high 20's in the last decade or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mama_b 10 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 [ QUOTE ] Well I have heard that Richlands will not bet getting the field turf, Emats can not get the loan to get the rest of the money to pay for it. [/ QUOTE ] You need to take a drive by RHS and tell me what you think about us NOT getting turf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
