Port Said Red Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 1. they will both be here. they are both under contract and would be crazy to let them go. from the interviews the players have had nothing suggests they would be leaving so can only go on that.2. well those fans are those fans. i cant change what they said but what you claim they said is absolute ********. we're not made of millions but have a much better financial situations than clubs around us. relegation to league 2 financially isnt destroying as there isnt too much differences with income. Well if you can't afford to pay an ex manager what he is owed, Swindle then that doesn't suggest that you will be able to meet the contracts of the players in question in league two or that financial situation is as rosy as you consider.

Nibor Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 relegation to league 2 financially isnt destroying as there isnt too much differences with income.A brief glance at the average attendances will highlight exactly how untrue this statement is.

STFC_awaitsabuse Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 Strangely, our average attendance is little different to last season, despite being strong enough to hold up the rest of the league nearly all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the home club gets to keep all the gate receipts these days. However, good luck in finding those well supported league 2 clubs at your ground. Apart from the gas they will be few and far between, especially if Oxford go down, and Cheltenham and Orient go up. You may find yourself arguing with the proverbial one man and his dog for a lot of the season. That is bound to have an effect on your clubs finances.

That is bound to have an effect on your clubs finances.but as i mentioned in my first point attendences are based on success on the pitch so you cant say what they are going to be like because you don't know. it wont effect us if there arent many away fans as the CG could be full if we're doing well.

Nibor Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 a) i don't think that is true. home attendances aren't made on which division your playing in its about the success on the pitch. depending on summer transfer activity etc are opening game attendance will be around the norm and depending on results from then it will pick up. Your average attendance will definitely go down whether you believe it or not. And clubs in league 2 will bring less fans to watch you.Yes the home club gets to keep all the gate receipts these days. When did that change then? As recently as last year SL was giving this as a reason for why they had a limited ability to do special offers and such. I thought the split was still 45% home 45% away 10% to the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
