Can anyone explain the logic involved here?

It's the great god football, Shambles. Anything to do with it is waved through with the magic wand of commerce, while music events, particulary folk ones, don't put much into the coffers and therefore must be evil.

It is the same logic that allows football 'fans' to wreck town centres, intimidate people and generaly misbehave while music fans and the rest of us pay the price.
