I believe the position of the women’s team was more than adequately covered at the forum & I am really not sure where this theory about the women’s team somehow subsidising the men is coming from. I would like to see the numbers being used to arrive at this result.
I can’t see how you are fully assessing all cost lines when you arrive at that conclusion. If costs were apportioned across different income streams what percentage of the following do you think the women’s budget should be responsible for
Stadium upkeep, cleaning & repairs
Pitch contractor
Club full time employees
Utilities
Kit
Investment in the training ground
Even if there was a split of sponsorship and advertising revenue, how much to each section.
The above is why it is almost impossible to apportion each budget and doing so would serve no positive purpose.
