Quote: Leeds_Luke "Gary likes the income from the gate. And the opportunity to sell a shirt with Santa Clause on the front.
I used to go with my dad and my brother every year to get out of the house for a couple of hours whilst mum entertained the rest of the family, but apart from that it wasn't much of an event anyway. Maybe they should allow the players to have a beer on Christmas day and sack the game off instead.'"
It's an event which pretty much pays for the Croft transfer fee on its own. I guess they could give the players involved the day off but what would you replace the revenue with?
