Skyline Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 20 minutes ago, smhouston said: Is that really the case though? As in, do the accounts show it? Just found this (Premier League Prize Money 19/20) which shows last season alone they received £130m Given they'll have done 2 seasons in the PL, and 20th received about £90m last season and then relegated teams get another £100m in parachute payments - so what's that...£330m? That leaves them pretty healthy despite them spending £120m~ on players and the McCabe money (which surely cannot amount to that much?) Agent fee's wages, running costs, no revenue. It all adds up. Also not many of these big fee signings will be sought after players, minus Berge. So they're stuck with expensive flops who will be on a hefty wage no other club would be willing to match. The only other sellable assets are you better players (Egan, JOC etc) who you don't really want to have to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mortgage for the ground, players wages, paying off McCabe, no income, And paying back the loans taken against future income i think a large proportion of that money will have already gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Will this weekend’s fixture against the mighty Pirates produce one of these responses: Lose. It’s cup, doesn’t really matter. Win. This will kick start their season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, you mean they're crap and ruining his record and image although it's absolutely not his fault in anyway, shape or form! #MBGA Sounds all too familiar! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sibon Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Meanwhile, over on Grunterstalk, they are arguing for the season to be voided. https://www.s24su.com/forum/index.php?threads/another-40-positive-covid-cases-in-pl.84242/ Which is marginally more embarrassing that being the shitest Premier League team ever.

Saw some of his latest interview on the news earlier, like a cat on a hot tin roof answering questions about issues between him and the club on strategic direction/ his role within setting and executing that. He might end up getting his own way again, but presume the Prince is pushing back a little bit more now Wilder’s managed to turn the first team into the Dog and Duck.

fudge27 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 We can't compete financially with these massive teams. Bristol Rovers have some players on 40 grand a year! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
