You have no idea of the profit margin per jersey, per club, you have no idea of the sponsorship deals clubs have.
Quote JB Down UnderWhy wouldn't it? Because the clubs that could possibly afford to splash 700k on sbw are already successful and close to saturation for paying customers. Maybe a club like hfc who have gone from 14k to 12k supporters could recoup the missing 2k but again it's a heck of a financial gamble for any club barely breaking even and very unlikey to even come close to recouping the expenditure. It's bad business end of to pay silly money to try and attract a big name in the hope of recouping that money, especially if you are already a top 4 club.'"
Leeds have averaged 2k more than they did this season, it wouldnt even be a record for them why do you assume in a city of 700k and a region of 2m Leeds have reached rl saturation point at 15.5k? Its naive to demand clubs dont try and attract the big names, it can be false economy
