Couldn't agree more with this. Absolutely no issue where overseas fans are concerned. What percentage of the £10 do Notts actually see, does anyone know?

Basic maths so apologies but lets assume someone was going to go to the game and taking their kid as well, that's £22 add to that about another £10 on refreshments/merch etc of which the club should see at least £5 profit so that's roughly £27, lets say 10 examples of this decide not to attend in person then that's £270 (ish) the club loses out on.

lets assume the club get 20% of the iFollow income, so £2, they would need 135 subscribers to match the loss of non attenders. Also, add to that away fans deciding to watch it for £10 rather than actually attending the match in person. More losses for the club but a tiny gain for the away club.

The whole thing is just cr4p and another nail in the coffin for football.

I have no issue with the option being open to overseas fans, it makes perfect sense but all this will do in the long term is reduce attendances and drive up the price of admittance, it's not sustainable, clubs will start to fold, people will lose their jobs and ultimately the biggest losers will be the fans themselves. At the moment I feel like the EFL can just go and get fcuked!!
