”Take a ckub like Dulwich Hamlet, which is in National League South. It’s revenue is generated through its refreshment. If it gets promoted to the National League Premier, it effectively stosp generating that revenue during a game.
They said openly in evidence to us that they cannot afford to get promoted because of the rules around alcohol. Lots of club generate a lot of their income through their bars and I think it’s time to look at this issue again.”
