  York Races attract more than 3000 residents per raceday (about 20 a year). Plis 100,000 of visitors. Don't hear them asking for handout from the taxpayer to the tune of £4million. That's professional sport. What's the benefit to York's economy? More than £12million and you don't here them complaining. Or crowing. Or begging.

  Handout for £4m?
  
  As usual your figures don't add up.
  
  After posting the details of the Stadium business plan on another post of yours you obviously decided not to carry on and read it.
  
  £2m of the the £4m 'handout' as you put it,is being used to create a new running track and facilities for York Athletics Club.
  
  So it seems SS is not only against the local football and rugby league clubs having new facilities,but is also against the York Athletics Club(non professional) having new fit for purpose facilities too.
  
  But I'm not suprised,the C4Y doesn't care less about the wider York community,only the size of their own wallets."
