If you times the extra income by the number of home games you start to surpass the £100,000 figure that AH stated made entry to the Checkatrade trophy a "no brainer". I am not against progress or change but not for the sake of it, up until a few years ago my mate would pick a couple of us up from the pub to drive down the game & very often a "non fan" would tag along for "summat to do" I cannot see this happening now you have to either pre book or queue twice to get in & I do know of fans who haven't bothered because of this.
