Re: can you help me with reaserch

dont agree with that cashman

because clubs get more fans when they are promoted and therefore get more cash to help extend the stadium

I believe that the club should be able to have a stadium what ever the size as long as it holds a reasonable amount of away fans and also the home teams following
But i dont see the piont in ground being half empty for example wigan which because they have such a large stadium means they have extra costs such as maintaining it, providing stewards for it and policing it (often contraversial in wigan) this means that the club is more likely to go into administartion which now leads to a 10 point deduction therefore more than likely they get relegated this often taking some of the competetion out of the league as team who are low funduned are more than likely hanging around the bottem


The only reason why the FA inforces these rules is then the ground have a higher capacity therefore when large fan bases do come and fill the away end they get a higher take of cash at the end as they get a percentage of the cash made by the attendance
