Anderson Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Quinn's had to take a £500k pay cut, no wonder he's pissed off with the cretins and is releasing quotes telling us how he 'despises' them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 We almost had the same amount of turnover as them in the championship, while they were in the premiership We also turnover double what they receive on a matchday as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are in massive profit this season, before the DB transfer it was only £4M-£5M i think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 This is a pretty good website for showing transfers: http://www.transferleague.co.uk/ ManCity already a hair under Chelsea after just two seasons of oil money Wonder what Real Madrid's net is. They made the papers this summer after breaking €1000m in incoming transfers since Florentino first took over, but sales should temper that a bit.

Optimistic Nut Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 That's alarming. No wonder they rely on loans. And what does Quinn do to warrant about £300k a year?! (or have I misread that) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reality is SAFC have spent £10 million more than Blackburn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Shamelessly stolen from elsewhere: Just noticed that the accounts for Sunderland Ltd for the year-ending 31 July 2010 are out. Key highlights are; Turnover is flat at £65m. However in there you have TV revenue +11% being offset by reductions in gate receipts (-9%), sponsorship (-4%), conferencing (-22%) and retail (-16%). Wages:Turnover ratio has increased to 82.2%, up from 76.8% in 2009. Loss for the year has increased to -£27.9m, up from a loss of -£26.5m in 2009. The 4 directors (Quinn, Walton, Callaghan & Byrne) paid themselves £1.12m, down from £1.94m the previous year. The highest paid director (doesn't state who) earned £326k (down from £888k in 2009). Ellis Short wrote off £19m of existing loans due from the club and invested a further £22.4m in the year to July 2010. These are interest free unsecured loans. Due to the losses made, Sunderland's directors have had to request a commitment from Ellis Short that he is willing and able to continue to support the operations of the company for the foreseeable future. Short has provided this. The club spent £39.3m in transfer fees in the year and recouped £12.0m. The club still owes £15.5m on transfer fees plus potentially another £6.5m depending on performance of players bought. Summary: They're spending way beyond their means and fucked if Short keels over tomorrow. No wonder Niall is trying to get more fans through the turnstiles. Ouch, that's not good reading for Sunderland fans. There's going to be a time when Ellis wants this business stable, which is what Quinny has sold him and hasn't come off, initial investment was always on the cards but now he needs to see some sort of balance as he'll not want to throw money after money at the club and depending on how strict the new financial rules are, even if he wanted too he wont be able. They are losing nearly £30m a year right? How does that work within the new financial rules? Not even maxed out attendances will sort that out, Quinn said they'd only make another £2m a year if they sold out, these figures are worrying for them. Also a big part of their squad which is over-performing (well getting results) is on loan, which in one hand reduces the wage bill, but on the other needs replacing with either more loans or actual bought players. And to top it off what they would get off Bent over the next few years they owe back out in transfer fees. Makes you kind of glad Ashley is penny pinching his way to club stability.

Delima Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I always find it ironic that players get paid souch more than chairmen, managers etc. Chairmen manage the whole club n managers manage thesquad. They have biggest responsibilities, so they should be paid most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
