The Cost of Football

Having seen the following on the BBC website http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/14366574.stm

 

It has prompted me to hopefully do something similar with the South Midlands League. Therefore I shall be e-mailing all club secretaries and hopefully they will take the trouble to reply.

Are prices of SSML games that expensive to worry about them? Clubs have to survive and gate receipts are important

I don't think prices are that expensive (unless you count any travel costs I incur travelling down from Yorkshire), I just thought it would be an interesting survey to do.

A survey yes I agree, I thought by your comments and reading the article you were planning on doing more at this stage. A survey first then analyse the correct process - Agreed

As most clubs have requested a copy of the results perhaps it will help those clubs who are struggling to cover costs to increase their prices on a par with others in their division.
