tomski Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Is that because we didn't file the accounts? I know he is renowned for knowing his stuff Quote
Ratwhite Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Sorry if this has been already posted, but I just spotted this on BBC's website.http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/39566143 Due to the fun we had last season, do we think that we are one of those 3 clubs? With zero(ish) debt. Very much doubt ut. Quote
gonzo Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Smurf was posting stuff about the company that ran the school jobby being dissolved. There's clutching at straws and being a complete bell wash. Quote
Zico Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 summat on twitter the other day, by swiss ramble madness What does that mean exactly? Is it better to be at the top or bottom? Are we deliberately blank? Quote
Whites man Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 What does that mean exactly? Is it better to be at the top or bottom? For every £1 Notts Forest take they spend £1.66 on wages. Quote
Zico Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 So you want to be at the bottom then And anyone under 100% is doing a good job Find it hard to beleive QPR are under 100% unless they have shifted all their deadwood from their PL jaunts :lol: at Forest and derby who just can't get near the PL Quote
Smiley Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 From that table, both Burnley & Hull got promoted! Now that's good business. Quote

Mounts Kipper Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) For every £1 Notts Forest take they spend £1.66 on wages. Currently I reckon we're nearer £1 take to £2 spend, might even be worse than that. It will improve massively next season. Edited April 13, 2017 by Mounts Kipper Quote
Carlos Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 What about all the money Eddie and Garty were pocketing? Quote
Guest Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 I'd think one is definitely us. Hopefully get promoted reduce wage bill and we then become self financing. Self financing. Nice idea, but we won't be able to stay in the championship very long using that sort of a model. Let alone challenge for promotion. Quote
Sweep Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Currently I reckon we're nearer £1 take to £2 spend, might even be worse than that. It will improve massively next season. I think you're right, it might even be worse than that this season At least a lot of the big earners are out of contract this time, although we will still be left with Amos, who I can't see playing for the club again Quote

That's what MR58 told me on Saturday Quote

Let alone challenge for promotion. Better that than what we were facing this time last year, a genuine possibility of our club being liquidated. Quote
Guest Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Better that than what we were facing this time last year, a genuine possibility of our club being liquidated. There has to be a balance. Sensible investment matched by good management. Eddie Davies did this early on and it reaped rewards. It went wrong when we started chucking money around after average players. I don't think we can be self financing and compete. We are 2nd in this league and mainly down to players we couldn't afford to pay if we were self financing. Quote

We are 2nd in this league and mainly down to players we couldn't afford to pay if we were self financing. We started chucking cash about because of desperation about avoiding relegation. Understandable as I can think of no other business where your income will drop by 66% and your costs remain the same. Quote

Guest Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 As mentioned above, it didn't do Burnley or Hull any harm. Burnley had a parachute payment and spent £9M on Gray. So whilst they may have been self financing they were probably financially able to compete. Hull also had parachute payments. Quote
gonzo Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 We just pissed all ours away on crap players and even worse managers. Hired the wrong people. Simple as that. Quote

Hull also had parachute payments. Indeed, the parachute payments certainly skew things somewhat. I'm surprised to see Leeds down at 59%, I don't know why, but I just expected them to be a lot higher Quote
