It only really hit hard at Christmas. Almost everybody I know whos self employed started suffering when the new year arrived. Up to christmas I was working flat out, seven days a week, the problem was making time to get to games. Now its lack of money, not time. Ive also lost count of the number of friends who have lost their jobs since then. I understand the point about the cold weather and poor form, but I'm convinced the economy is the major reason for the drop in attendances.
