If it is correct that the 5000 plus hardcore will buy season tickets, no matter what.
According to the council, wages are the biggest expenditure for SISU.
This gives SISU two options, firstly invest in the team, gamble on success, which will lead to better crowds, better investment, sponsorship etc... Then eventually promotion and more money.
The downside is an increase in wages again.
The flip side is cut the wages and risk relegation. The big question what would relegation to league 2 mean to SISU. I would guess a lot of players would ask to leave we would either get transfer fees, others out of contract and others released for free like Mcpake.
Any replacements (sorry kids promoted from the youth set up) Will get league 2 wages.
Then you massively reduce your biggest expenditure.
What else do SISU lose by dropping to league 2. If the hardcore loyal fans will turn up no matter what. If SISU are not prepared to go for option one. Then surely it will be in there interest to drop to league 2?
Please dont turn this into a debate about whether the hardcore should turn up or not, but just consider is it SISU's long term plan?
