I think the general gist of that has merit but lets not forget that every £40 has a chunk of expense for meals etc to come out of that.
Does make you wonder though if the concentration should be on getting more money out of a few instead of trying to get hundreds more on the gate. Given the general view of apathy, demographics and the numerous ticket offers where even giving tickets away doesn't generate interest, maybe trying to up the walk on attendance isn't worth the effort and that effort needs to be applied to other forms of income generation to ensure the clubs ability to stay at this level and maybe even higher ?
