yep it baffles me too, when I was down there helping out with the stadium barrier repairs and then using the unit in the corner brewing there was times when I sat with Chris and we discussed areas of saving, one of the biggest was the utilities saving on electric and water, staff wages does help and there's a little army of workers pecking away and repairs too all volentary but given tickets for the game and they do earn them too.
at the time emley football club was playing there and used to leave power on so they they got kicked out.
evening games the floodlights lights bar a couple near the changing rooms was turned off when it was seen that the stadium was empty, many a time I got caught out bringing casks back from the north stand

when he was interested in bradford a few yrs back you missed out on someone who would of shown you the thrifty way to do it.
