I think we have been hit harder to a degree because, last season, we actually bucked the trend of falling gates that occurred at many clubs, probably as a result of good performances, a late drive to get in the play-offs and more local derbies. This season we have none of that and, coupled with economic uncertainty and rising unemployment, we have taken a real whipping.
Don't forget too that is also almost 1,500 punters not spending money in other areas of the club (bar/food/drink/programmes, etc., etc.) The net effect is massive to a club like ours.
