Seriously, its a lot more complicated than that, and I think you know it...
Using your example then.....If Wire decided to charge £35 to watch a match, compared to say a tenner, would we get the same attendance??...
More than likely, for £35 you'd get your real hardcore fans, with virtually no casuals turning up....for the tenner you'd get a lot more casuals.
Of course, its got to be a case of balancing up your budgets....Either take a hit in your wallet in order to gain more exposure, or simply go with your faithful followers and keep the purse topped up.'"
In the case of league it makes more sense to go with your faithful followers, I seriously doubt that any potential new fans are 'recruited' to the game of rugby league by watching Ray French go on about the 6ft 3, 15 stone former Blackbrook amateur going in at the corner
