Don’t we get free ice where the arena teams have to pay for the stadium? So putting us all not that far apart.
End of the day, ticket prices etc is high so people want a return on their investment.

Sheffield, according to their own press release, have their best ever aredeal. They average over 7k fans a game, 4k more than us. On an average of say £15 a ticket, they’d need to be paying £60k per game for us to be in the same postion.
Nottingham pay about 10k per game. I’ve seen the rental costs a few years ago when I rented the facility. 10k is a few hundred fans.
When we first had IAW it the free ice deal was a game change, but that was before all the other teams got their act together. Back then Sheffield and Belfast were getting 4-5k fans per game.
Bring sad we’ve not beaten them to trophies is like Aston Villa being upset they haven’t won the Premiership over Man City or Liverpool.
Every fan was a return on their ticket, Fife fans would say the same.
