not really

JCC's posts do not alter the fact that attendances are down.
His posts do not alter the fact that, anecdotally, fans are spending less at FCR (in reaction to the price increases and / or recession)
Nor do his posts alter the fact that the club have invested money in creating new seats that, so far, have remained empty.
