Quote: sergeant pepper "Interesting to read the RFU saying that maybe it's time for a condensed, 10 team league. Obviously there's a loss of two fixtures per year, but more TV money to go around as well as deeper squads too.
Seems to be the opposite of what IMG are calling for though. Although both are on the same page in regards to promotion/relegation & licences.
Out of interest, does anyone know (Jukes perhaps) how much a RL club makes off their home games? Is the Leicester revenue of £350k high, or comparable to RL? I know ticket prices are different and they get an average of c.8/10k more through the gates than us.'"
Rogues would be your man
I know he has in the past studied the accounts etc for various reasons
I would ha e my own thoughts and without going into working outs I would say Leicesters revenue above would be High for most RL clubs to match.
Obviously many moving parts Inc hospitality etc which for various reasons will be different from club to club (offset by other costs etc) but I would guesstimate that 150 to 200k per home game would be about right, bearing in mind that in one will be averaged from season ticket sales spread outcome the year
