How the hell did Lincoln manage this?

That figure isn't far off our turnover!

I think Lincoln have been in or around the playoffs for the last three seasons and the additional revenue from the club doing so well coupled with shrewd business sense, should ultimately lead to a cash surplus.

Southend's figures for their last financial year should be quite good and this year's figures may be even better if we make the LDV National Final again. Then there's the TV revenue from the Luton game to consider also. Someone on here said we need an average of 6000 fans per game to reach our break-even point. Our present League average is 5145, but with cup games added and TV revenue, we won't be far away.

Good on them I say, shows it can be done if you are a well run club.

[BoyWonder2]

That is mightly impressive.

He's right though, people do watch winning sides, not losers, take us, we got our highest attendence of the year yesterday.

I believe its more like somewhere between 5-5,500. This wasn't taking into account any of the TV extras we've been getting.

But once we start to show profit, Delancey will want a piece of the cake...

Is 5,500 attendance breakeven before or after the rent of £500,000 is taken into consideration?

I'm sure it was mentioned that 6,000 paying adults was the break even figure!?
