Elliottman Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 What's the £33m for? He put in as running costs last year Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 A company he owns put in £33m in December, £18m to pay a loan back to him directly and £15m to cover running expenses. All one big tax swindle I'm sure, given that it's all his money just moving around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 So where did the £30m transfer profit and the parachute payment go? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliottman Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 So where did the £30m transfer profit and the parachute payment go? Probably offset against the amount you would get for staying in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Because he keeps getting us relegated then feels he has to put his own cash in to get us back, only to want it back in the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
afar Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 It's ludicrous to believe despite slashing the wage bill that we needed 73 million (40 million transfer profits plus the 33 million "loan") to stay afloat last year, if every club needed that amount to survive when they go down, they would all be in administration surely, especially when we more or less filled out our stadium every game last season, no one else who gets relegated will come anywhere near our average attendance. Just tax fiddling and a way to say to everyone how much we our in debt to his benevolent leadership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can't even buy you Danny Drinkwater. Ticket income is becoming less and less important as the ridiculous TV money increases. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 25m Gates+matchday seems a bit low for a team that pulls 50k attendances consistently. Is that for the C'ship season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 25m Gates+matchday seems a bit low for a team that pulls 50k attendances consistently. Is that for the C'ship season? It's around 30m for us last few seasons in the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say an average season ticket is £500 x 50,000 people, that's £25m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can't even buy you Danny Drinkwater. Ticket income is becoming less and less important as the ridiculous TV money increases. The wage bill we took into the season was a lot less than what we went down with, with the sales and loan outs we made, no way the inbounds made the amount of those we got shot of. Also we did get paachute payments (or PL TV deal, since that's paid in arrears I think). I'll say it again, you should not need 73 million just to survive one season in the champ, the money has just gone into the fat man's pocket but through accountancy magic it'll be seen as him bailing us out.

Where's £73m from? You can't do 'accountancy magic' on this sort of thing- it all has to be disclosed as related party transactions, the only problem is it takes an age for this information to actually get into the public domain.
