I’d be interested to see how much the wage bill has gone up under DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2018 accounts the club owes Chansiri £78m. Then there’s whatever he paid for us plus loans since July 2018 to fund losses to work out how much he’s in for. Then there’s however you account for the sale of Hillsborough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a crazy scheme that got money in short term. If the team has prospered it would have been OK I guess. Sadly the money was pissed up a wall.

Dick_Turpin Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I suppose Richards’ scheme ended up disastrous rather than simply stupid so I take your point. But Chansiri ain’t finished yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat blondeau Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 3 hours ago, Belfast Owl 2 said: Just seen figures bandied about saying 100 million or 200 million quid has been spent on him Do these people have evidence and figures to back this up? Or is it easy to chuck about a big figure to skew an argument? According to the accounts we lost £69.3 million in the 3 years from 2015 to 2018. If you add on what we’ve lost since then about £100 million sounds about right. The annual operating losses have gone up from £5.2 million in 2015 (under Mandaric) to £37.7 million in the last set of accounts in 2018 under DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OurDan Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Looking at the club's League and Cup history, performances and international players - Dave Richards time was the most successful period we had in the last 75 years That is why we all come isn't it? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our best days in my lifetime were when he was chairmen, brought in Big Ron and gave him and Francis money to bring in some fantastic players. However made a few average decisions with managers and jumping ship at the end to get job as Premier League chairmen leaves a nasty taste in the mouth. Bert McGee appointed Big Ron not the poo weasel that is Dave Richards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OurDan Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Bet you all hated Dave Richards when we were finishing in the top half of the Premier League, winning the League Cup, playing in the FA Cup Final, signing England Internationals and playing the best football we have ever played under a Chairman from Sheffield Give me a Thai that had never heard of us 5 years ago, sold our stadium to cover his financial incompetence to take us 2 places lower in the old Second Division over that any day I've seen about 5 games now in 18 months and every one of them was crap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
