Jason Turner Statement

Jason Turner, quite rightly, is representing the people he is responsible for, just like Andy Burnham did in a similar scenario.

It would be interesting to see if any of the minnows in this league would describe themselves as being better off as a result of Covid!

I've just had a look at Dover's average attendance and it's just over 1000, and they charge £18 per full price ticket and £15 for concessions.

To make it easy, if we say that a home game for them generates £20k, and now they are getting £84k plus streaming revenue, that is probably the equivalent of 5 home games per month.

Looking at their calendar they weren't due to play 5 home games in a month (some months 4, others 3, others 2) so objectively they are now definitely better off due to Covid.

It’s typical of the NL to ask everyone for proof of their expected losses only to ignore it. It’s the losses due to not have fans attend matches that needed quantifying. There might be an argument that although Notts have the bigger attendances their losses might be less than a club with smaller attendances because under normal circumstances their overheads are much higher.

Its really simple, how much net profit would a club make from an average home game? Quantify this and structure the financial aid accordingly. Obviously way too difficult for the NL.
