I've seen him play only two times, but boy did he impress. So composed both on the ball, and infront of the goal. Can't remember last time I felt young SPL player (outside of Old Firm) impressed me as much. I would certainly want to see more of this lad, but to me he is looking like a "real deal". Hope that are scouts are aware of him. He looks a very good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 So last day of the transfer window tomorrow. Do you think we will do any business in or out? I really wish we would do but deep down I don’t think anything will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if the capital spent is serviced by day to day spending (Revenue budget) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only showing the disparity between our expenditure and our income from transfers, our derisory income from transfers will also be spread accordingly. Ultimately, however you slice it we have a big gap to fill How the deal is structure is irrelevant. If we pay the full transfer fee up front the fee is still amortised over the period of the contract. That means for a £10m fee on a 4 years contract we write down the value of the player by £2.5m per year. When we sell a player for £10m it's different. If he's a home grown player who cost us nothing we have made a £10m profit which is shown in the accounts straight away even if we are being paid over 3 or 4 years. If say we bought him for £10m on a 4 year contract and we sell him for £10m after 2 years we have made a £5m profit. That sounds daft I know but from an accounting point of view we have written down his value in the accounts by £2.5m twice so as an asset so the books show him as only being valued at £5m, as that's what our accounts show then the fact that another club has paid us £10m means in accountancy terms we have made £5m. This seems illogical but from an accounting point of view a player is a depreciating asset (it goes down in value each year). Imagine if you bought a car with a lifespan of 4 years, after 2 years it's value has halved, now imaging some idiot offered you what you paid for it. You would be making a profit because you are getting all your money back on something only worth half that. Players are treated like cars in accounting terms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worrying that we haven’t so far managed to ship any players out. Such a poor way to run a football club. Not just because of how deep we are with FFP but also because the squad needs freshening up.
