We won't be financially sustainable if we get the wooden spoon. We will have no fans.
There's probably a swing of about 2,000-4,000 fans per regular season home game, relative to the Nix having a poor season compared to a really good one. Of course securing a home playoff gives the coffers a nice boost, but that hasn't happened in a long time. If not for Covid it would likely yes have ocurred in 19/20.
But as has been stated a bit lately, Nix had their most expensive squad ever last season, and still only just squeaked into the finals playing poorly. And the crowds weren't very flash. So spending large, doesn't guarantee at all success, on or off the pitch.
There are other entries in the income & expense columns, likely more important to the financial stability of the club, than gate revenue.
Death, taxes & the Nix going out in the first round of finals. Maybe this season will be different one way or the other.
