A lack of cash from people attending their matches
We were able to retain Wes and buy holt because of our advanced season ticket sales. That was massive for us.
Also, historically I think you’re right about fan base, but I’m not convinced that’s true anymore.
Our recent success will have added 10 years of fans (people that were 10 years old at the start of the lambert era are adults now), which they won’t have. Also, our geography is better from that perspective.
