Because they would have very few overheads and the players would be paid a wage that wouldn’t require a huge outlay. If they’re training at East Mains and playing at Easter Road then that’s going to cost practically nothing. Sponsorship and gate receipts could well outstrip costs if promoted properly. You only have to look at some of the crowds in England to see the potential in the ladies game. I totally get that plenty hibs fans aren’t interested in going to see the ladies play, but they shouldn’t close their minds to the potential that’s there. Scotland isn’t any different to any other European country, and if the game can thrive in those countries it can do so here.
Some fair points. I stand by my view that it should be treated as a separate entity with its own interested audience, but each to their own.
