I have no doubt that the startup costs are a heavy weight to carry, but not a surprise to anyone, so will have been factored in. Dont forget that the club originally budgeted on a first season break even crowd average of 12k I believe, so we have exceeded by some margin in that area. We had TV...
Apart from our startup/building costs, why do you think ours will be something to dread? We had 19k season ticket holders, they have about 9k, our crowds averaged 20k theirs something in the region of 12k.
