Company contract hire leasing is a lot cheaper than personal contract hire. Also Merc Swindon are a sponsor of the club and probably did them a decent deal. It all depends what models they are but id imagine anything between 350-600 per month. Never seen a lease more than that for a merc.

An honest question here....on a day when the new board are trying to clip the wages of an employee(not knockng that)

Just wondering if the Mercs are still being hired by the club...and if so why.....i use my own car to get to work....as do the players .

I am hoping that someone tells me they are a thing of the past.

Really ?

Is this keeping you awake at night ?

Whilst its far from a big issue to me - why can't they just use their own cars?

3 pages on this topic is a bit embarrasing.

I couldn't really care if they go to work in a gold plated Bugatti Veyron or share a tatty skateboard.

As long as they do a good job in the long term and my club is run well, isn't that all that really matters?

This car hire thing is all a bit petty really isn't it?

I like Fred, every forum needs a nutter or two and in him and the Dosser we have two people who always seem on the brink of a meltdown.

That those moaning about a couple of company cars on the books should do the world a favour and top themselves

I am quite certain that a couple of company cars would not have had any bearing on that.

A couple of Mercs costing a few thousand a year is not going to really affect the playing budget. Besides, things like mileage allowance (at HMRC approved rates) can cost just as much.

A wider issue is whether the directors are working full time, taking a commercial salary/remuneration package and how much consultancy fees they’re taking.

They might not have a bearing on the redundancy, but the club are looking to cut out goings and make redundancy, how would you feel? "Sory were makeing you redundant but were going to hire acouple  of company cars with your wages

Correct! This was all covered off back in April at the Trust meeting...

"Murrall said that company cars - Mercedes - had been hired to replace the previous company cars at what he claimed to be a lower cost. The Advertiser understands the monthly lease of the cars to be £370 and that two have been hired by Town."
http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/10377334.McCrory_and_Murrall_meet_fans/


"More than one Mercedes has been leased by the club, but at rates Steve was keen to point out were very favourable."
http://www.truststfc.com/2013/04/trust-stfc-swindon-supporters-club-meeting-with-jed-mccrory/

So £740 pcm on 2 mercs, which is costing no more than they were spending out before anyway. It's pittance compared to the budget and other costs etc.

They must be laughing at us (or at the very least surprised!) for focussing so much on such a trivial issue.

To be honest I couldn't give a monkeys, I'm more likely to be the one driving the Merc than the janitor being fucked off out the back door Smiley
