Trophy Defeat Makes Financial Position Even Worse


This afternoon's defeat in the FA Trophy has made the financial position even worse at Edgar Street.

Losing the game has denied the Bulls the £5000 prize money and another game in the competition.

But it's not only that.

The poor performance by the side, especially in the first half, led to chants of 'what a load of rubbish' at the final whistle.

Those who didn't come today aren't likely to return in droves to next Saturday's Conference match against Nuneaton.

Earlier this week BN reported that more cuts were expected at the club.

It's now understood some off the pitch staff are to lose their jobs and that might be just the tip of the cuts.

The gate money from the game is unlikely to be more than £10k which probably means about £4k for the Bulls. Add to that perhaps £1k from catering and programmes and it's not hard to work out that the club can't function as it is on this level of income.
