AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Isn't the parachute payment absolutely massive this time around as well? Sure I read that. Increase from 48m to 60m over 4 years. In other words a massive decrease compared to staying up. Well obviously, but it softens the blow a bit that's all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how being paid £45m less is in any way a blow softener like What are you on about? Sorry it was simple in my mind. Stay up and we get £60m, go down and we get £15m. The difference in the two is £45m which is what we will lose, where is the confusion? Either way its not in any way a softened blow to a club which largely relies on that bigger income to break even.

NG32 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I still think that money gives you a massive headstart over other clubs in that league...im just not surr if i can watch rebuild again and try and get promoted all over again If we do go up we would then have that nervy first season back.

Kanj Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Pretty sure the TV money just doesn't come in 1 lump sum of 60m anyway I think some clubs borrow against that or some take it as it comes in, which is what Ashley would do - no? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

See your point Ian, i guess though that an increase of £3m a season isn't much of a silver lining. Given our costs it really wouldn't make any dent at all in the problem. A point, i'm sure, understood by all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATB Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 He has done a great job with getting this club out of economic problems, though he is still the real problem. While Ashley is here this club won´t move any further and Pardew is just a reflection of Ashley himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
