So the likelihood is that we will get £30k per month, whilst if we were in the league above we'd get £84k per month.

I can't believe the costs are that much higher one division above. I think we've been screwed over here Sad
I think we have done OK out of this - given that the average attendance in the NLN is over 1k (https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/natio.../2019-2020) we will have done significantly better than Darlington, Boston, Kiddy, etc.

Given that we have budgeted for 850/900 and have approximately 400 season ticket holders - it is hoped this 30k should fill the gap of those 500 paying supporters that we are missing out on each fortnight.
30k over 3 months divided by the home league matches fans are missing (8) gives us gate money for ~865 fans, presuming the funding is only supposed to offset gate takings (not additional spending in the ground). That’s not a bad amount, certainly better than ~300-400.
But a fairer split could've been £40k to step 2 clubs and £60k to step 1. They don't need £54kpm more than us!

In football sadly there will always be winners and losers ... sadly today we've in the losing team ... We've had no consideration for anything based on our position etc ...

What can you do ... we move forward and deal with the hand we've got.

Thansk AP stay positive
whilst the money is better than nothing, there will be a huge shortfall from sponsorship and other additional revenue including the 'new groundhoppers'
We're hoping to get sponsorship for the streaming if you can badger the companies you work for. On a per match basis or would consider a generous offer to cover them all.

If you know someone interested please get them to email media@gcafc.co.uk
On the face of it we have done very well out of this. Given those clubs with much higher crowd numbers than us have only got £6k more at our level it could have been much worse. I was surprised we were getting as much as £30k to be honest was expecting it to be less.
May I ask the official source of these figures that have been mentioned.
