Without ignoring the folly of the past few years as a fan I still look forward to the new season with excitement and (albeit tempered) optimism. It's the only way for me. I'm sure that Bannan's palm has been well greased but I personally doubt to the extent of the £27k PW being bandied around. He's a terrific player but if the need arises then hopefully his contract does not realistically scare off potential buyers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chansiri only gets some of his cash back via promotion and then pushing for the Prem. I'm fairly content we have 2 seasons to get back up before it hits the fan now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG D Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Custard Cream has been in tears because Bannan is in £27k. Wait till he sees that Izzy Brown was on £26k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be able to spend up there with the top sides but we badly need to regain our Championship status 1st attempt. Expect we can pay a lot for Prem loans in L1 that others maybe besides Ipswich can do. Moore must also have been given assurances, these accounts back that up.

My point is more why it needs to be at the first attempt. I'm genuinely sick of this club operating with a training ground from the 90s, a scouting system from the 90s, with (at times) a fanbase from the 90s. It's time this club started operating in a way that isn't just after a mad dash to the finish line of promotion ASAP. I appreciate there's some time pressure, as I don't think we could sustain 8-10 years in League One (surely not without DC completely losing interest), but I don't think we need to put all our eggs into promotion at the first attempt. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ante's Bubbly Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 The money from selling the ground didn't go very far did it? With £60M I hoped we would me minted......(hiding now)..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogbad Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 22 minutes ago, heard that pardon said: Wont we be under the league 1 rules and not P&S (FFP) next year and if (don't laugh) were promoted P&S(FFP) will be reset at year one. The EFL are saying we were only under FFP embargo till all our championship affairs were sorted out wages & accounts. The accounts that come out next year will be for the 2020/21 season for which we were still in the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the losses in the next accounts will be higher than in these Good points though indications so far are that we are looking to recruit younger and cheaper players commensurate with our league one status. Who knows we actually might sell the odd player at a tidy profit. Mind you there'll be the usual furore when we sell our best player(s); you know, the ones that other clubs are actually willing to pay for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't say that they are "healthy". Delay will have been trouble getting auditors signing off the going concern assessment whilst club were not paying their player's! No coincidence that the unpaid wages being settled and accounts being punished in same week. Edited July 6, 2021 by wellbeaten-the-owl 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morley Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 1 minute ago, Maddogbob said: If they are that "healthy" why the delay. Or have I got my tinfoil hat on here? They're not healthy. We lost £24m, how can that possibly be healthy? The previous year we would only have lost £19m without the sale of the ground, so not only are they not healthy but the losses were increasing. The potentially good news is that these figures are already a year out of date so they're not actually all that relevant any more. More important is what the figures to the end of this year look like, but of course we won't see them for another 12 months. If our glorious owner has taken the right steps to reduce costs in the last year then we may be alright however I fear that when the accounts as of today are eventually compiled a combination of Covid and bad management will leave us in a much worse position than we were in 12 months ago. (the time these accounts relate to) The football club has a massive negative net worth and is wholly reliant on Chansiri for it's continued existence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please advise your version of decent wages for L1, because frankly anything over 5 or 6k a week is ludicrous at this level.
