Assuming the same average crowds, prices would need to increase by around 25% to cover the decrease in games to get the same amount of cash in. Season tickets would cost something around the same for 4 less games

Al, either your arithmetic is on annual leave or you've been smoking that funny stuff again.

, and the average price for getting in would be near £30.

See below. The percentage loss of games against the bigots and yams is 0% the percentage of total home games lost [from the 19 we have now] is approximately 5.12364423%

This is completely ignoring the fact that instead of 6 home games against the OF and Hearts we'd have 3 and the average crowds would be lower, and that's assuming the same number of folk go despite the increased prices.

Unless I am sadly mistaken, in the present league format we play 38 games [assuming parity then thats 19 home and 19 away]. In the new set up if it went ahead we would play 36 games [18 home and 18 away] and making the obvious assumption that we would be top 8 when the split occurred we would play the bigot brothers and the corgis the same number of times home and away as we do now. The only difference I can see with the new league set up would be that if we had a really bad year and were struggling to make the split we would be aiming for top 8 instead of top 6.

As I said Al, either I have my figures drastically wrong or you do mate.
