A very simple question for you, you should be able to answer this without much hassle.

The match in which we played Macclesfield at home was played in front of the Walkers record lowest crowd.....

How much of a loss did we make on the game?

Please answer without giving us bollux.

is that (crowd attence + sales) - (seats not sold at face value + electricity etc.)?

went up to £12 I think

OK just use that for now so lets say 1342 more people at £12 give us
anther £16104 added on to the £24950 give them a total of £40754 on tickets alone all we need now is to know the coats of opening and ruining the walkers for the match IMO they mite just break even only just if not a lil under

forgot we have to give Macs some of the money too so it must have cost us no way we could make a profit :icon_eek:

I bet roughly we lost about 50k.

The receipts are shared, I bet Catering didnt make any money, stewarding was a penny saver and we got a small amount of prize. Programmes aswell.

What a surprise they haven't answered you BG, especially when they have taken the time to comment on other threads, since this has been posted and yet refuse to answer the one that is directly posed to them.

No doubt not had clearance from Ronald McDonald and TNBD as to how they answer it without opening another can of worms.

They haven't 'refused' to answer anything - they may not even have seen this!

They probably have to find the answer from the club before replying.

The second set of advance purchase tickets was £5.99. But anyone who paid on the day had to pay the 'full' price of £12.

No they haven't. Their last post was around 10 hours before this thread was started!

Macclesfield get their travelling expenses for the game, and a 45% share of the profit. Leicester would get 45% of the profit, and the other 10% would go to the pool which is divided amongst all clubs at the end of the competition.

If the match makes a loss, Macclesfield would have to pay us a share of the loss.

Apologies I misread the time on BG's opening post, thought he had posted this thread last night.

Sorry Jeff, you pedantic bacon you :icon_lol:
