Yeh, from the above in the mode of the two cows explanations.
You have an A league team. It draws in costs.
Or that line about how to become a millionaire- start as a billionaire and buy an A league club.
And EFL and etc clubs can be worse. Big gambles on promotion with heavy penalties on missing out.
If you’ve got a bunch of women who want to play football, you should have a women’s team. I mean the FA in England has a fairly shoddy history of banning football for women because the game wasn’t suited to them. And Korea (only a couple of decades into democracy at that point) had a president who, along similar themes, suggested women should sacrifice their jobs for their husbands during the Asian financial crisis iirc! On the basis they were only going to quit later anyway once they got married or pregnant. No point saying we’re only going to have women’s football during boom economic cycles…
And our academy is pay to play I believe and academies overseas create millions from successful players, so that’s not usually a loss making area, unless rent is exorbitant.
