Must be based on potential gate receipt losses, that’s the only fair way to do it, happily that works well for County.

If that's the case then County would like be in that 7 then, surely?

I'm guessing the 7 are us, Notts, Wrexham, Chesterfield, Hartlepool, Torquay, and Yeovil.

If it's based on Tory MPs we've got two.

If it's based on Tory MPs we've got two. We've also got two Labour ones. Including the MP for Stockport the constituency EP and County are in. Plus the local Labour MP is to the left of the party and voted against the government's Police Can Do What They Like bill* *This may not actually be the official title.

That's a hell of a windfall, isn't it? An effective annual grant of over £1.1m, although I know we're all hoping fans will be back before a year of it has passed (at which point the money will presumably stop?). How does that rate as a % of our turnover, anyone know?

I believe it only runs for three months initially.

An effective annual grant of over £1.1m, although I know we're all hoping fans will be back before a year of it has passed (at which point the money will presumably stop?). How does that rate as a % of our turnover, anyone know? I imagine even in the worst case scenario of Covid being here in 12 months, this grant would only go as far as end of April at best so only 7 months not 12, so more like £650k. I think a lot of our sponsorship money has remained and this is to cover lost match day costs. If you assume (including STs) 5000 a match day, average price per ticket (adult/concession/kid) after tax £8, and £10k for food/drink/hospitality that's £50k per match over 22 games (no Macc) that's £1.1m The fact that some ST holders are not asking for a refund and additional streaming revenue, combined with lower match day costs, I'd say we shouldn't be too far away from original non-Covid projections. (although clearly if we continue to play the way we are, 5000 would be a very conservative estimate!)
