It's flawed, not the donating to the foodbank itself but the jumping on the false hysteria over PPV.
Newcastle has 42k season ticket holders. That means just over 1,300 ST holders donated the money. The average season ticket price is £614 which means they pay on average £34 a ticket. The Average single ticket is around £40.
So what they should have been saying is 'Season ticket holders, by buying the PPV you will have about £19 more returned to you for your season ticket why not donate that to the foodback. And for non-season ticket holders if you could get a single ticket you would have paid closer to £40 than the £!5 for the PPV so why not again donate the difference to the foodbank'
By buying into the hysteria about clubs ripping them off its made people fall into the viewpoint that they are being ripped off and this is money money they wouldn't have spent anyway which makes them less likely to donate but by saying 'You wouldn't have this money without COVID, why not donate it' people think 'its money I didn't expect to have' and are more likely to donate. Certainly, they would have got more than £20k
