Quote: Scabbycat "My last rant of the day before I go back on the naughty step.
Yesterday we were 3500 below our average, although taking into consideration Grand National, lets say we were down 2000, If the trend is continued for the next two home games, assuming The Little Fox is still here. They are against Widnes and Salford, I think we can safely assume the Widnes game will be the same attendance, they bring noone and it is on SKY, so we we be down 2500 (no grand national to contend with). Similarly with Salford we will probably be 2000 down on that one.
That is a loss in attendance of 6500 @ £20 per adult that is £130,000 in lost revenue. I would think that would balance having to pay Millward off. I am sure if we brought in someone like John Kear the attendances would immediately rise, as we all know what JK did with Wakey, he plotted our downfall, and kept Wakey up.'"
That is a pretty simplistic way of looking at it as:
Not all people not attending the games would be adults
Some people staying away are Members (already paid for their entry
I do agree that IM has to go and JF would get a better return on his investment by sacking / paying off IM and watching ther attendances rise.
