Quote financialtimes="financialtimes"You can't expect any business to provide any part of their goods/service at cost, you must make a mark up on all expenses, just because 2nd post cost £1.20 you really can't expect the club to pass that on at cost, a 40% mark up on carriage is quite the norm in any business and there is no way you can cover the cost of £1.20 in the £2 sale cost of the magazine. Look at it this wasY, if the mag cost £1 to produce and you sell it at £2 + £1.20 postage the margin is 26.6% but selling the postage at £2 the margin on the total transaction is 45% which is the more sensible business model for the sake of £0.80?'"
I don’t disagree and I’m willing to pay, parking and petrol to wakefield cost more. However you know Trinity fans as well as I do and some will use it as an excuse. I suppose it boils down to whether it pays or not.
Didn’t realise this replaces the programme.
Just a thought here MC. Why not give a free team sheet away on the day? Just a black and white A4. You could can buy a B/W laser printer for a £100 these days. Get a sponsor to cover the cost of the cheapest paper and toner you can find and bingo. It’s a nice gesture and it would be up to date as well. Just an idea.
