How on earth do we spend £1.9m on other wages & salaries (non first team player/ management & associated costs) ? We only employ about 15 people.

 

Bloody hell, we really did shaft Carlisle with Lewis didn't we

 

£300k from I-Follow is impressive .....

 

Isn't it talking about last season, or am I making some sort of mistake?

I think we sold 6 players last season:

Hornby, Watt, Staunton, Kelleher, Angol and Sutton.

 

It's not mentioned on the graphic but we made £300,000 from iFollow last season which will be wiped out next season with the new TV deal with only £200,000 from that whilst we are in league 1 although I suspect a large portion of the the income from iFollow was from people who go to 'Spain' for a couple of hours which should still be available with the new deal.

I suspect that the 821k from transfer income will be mainly from the academy as I can't see how we would get that amount of money from the 1st team players sold and I can't think of any ex-players we sold recently which did something that would get us a significant clause fee.

 

And most of those are on minimum wage. I remember the sob story about that increasing when they were justifying the season ticket price increase.

 

You're right Jon, it's figures up to June 23 so it won't include Lewis.

 

These are a year old up to April 23 so how much will we lose this season?1 Mill perhaps? Rupp will have to dig very very deep to fund next seasons player budget methinks. The losses compare favourably with others but we do seem to now be going in the wrong direction.

 

Describes the accounts as “a bit boring”

How apt.

 

Schwarzer is up there as one of my top 3 ever City Keepers apart from Tommo and Walsh.

Pickford, Gould and McManus not far behind with Ward there and thereabouts.

Though you do shudder at some of the names on this list

I doubt Lewis' fee counts in the 22/23 financials, but keep an eye out this time next year!

 

Apparently we sold a young lad to Hull City, but no idea if that's an academy sale of a first team sale.

Looks like we made £90k out of those 6/7 players?

 

Awaits @Dennis appraisal

 

When approving the deal, our CEO said it would hit us financially until we got into League 1.....gone well so far....

 

Sky should keep football as a complete separate subscription from other sport as I don't have sufficient interest in any other to warrant paying for it ....but that's maybe just me ..!!

 

Oh for the days when we just went to a game cheered our team on win or lose, then look forward to meeting your group usually in the White Lion on Johns Street to go to the next game, life was so much easier.

 

Those were the heady day eh? Steiner, Kulscar, Regtop, Topp, Sundgot, Edinho
