A piece on fan banter.

Average loss for a league 2 club £2.2 million, £5.6 for league 1 clubs.
Didn’t mention div2 playing budget but the average div1 is £7.6 million the lowest just under £3.5

Wimbledon had a turnover of £10.2 million and still made a loss and are seeking new investors, by it’s really tough up there.

So…. Is it better to stay in the lower leagues and minimise your losses?

Hell of a lot has changed, even in the short time we’ve been absent.

Even in this league we are up against a side with a £4/5million budget with some players on 7k per week, allegedly.
