No where yet-just not at City

 

Coming from Boro and Blackburn, I bet he is on a decent wage at City. Should free up a nice bit of money for someone else.

 

In a football sense, not in a commercial sense. The owner “ gifting” and commercial activities are supporting the football side ie transfers , signing on fees, high agents fees and wages. Which on moderate crowd size has to be loss making. MKD are the same.

 

But United, Tiktok, Expedia etc all sponsor them. They turn over £10m.

Just because it's sponsorship doesn't mean it's a loss. Those sponsors on the face of it are odd, but the fact they get put into the extremely successful documentary means it's worth it for them.

I'd bet they don't make any losses. I'd like to see their accounts though.

Edit: here we go, from Wrexham site:

In the season where promotion was achieved by both the Men’s and Women’s senior teams, Turnover for the year was £10.478m (2022: £5.972m) with the loss increasing to £5.113m (2022: £2.913m).

Income was increased across the board, with the most significant with our retail operation reaching £3.430m (2022: £1.303m) and Sponsorship / Advertising rising to £1.883m (2022: £1.053m). The increase in Football revenue £1.314m (2022: £0.531m) can be attributed to our success in the FA Cup.

The payroll of the Club increased to £6.9058m (2022: £4.050m).


The amount owed to The R.R. McReynolds Company, LLC at the year-end was £8.977m (2022: £3.714m).

The financial losses suffered by the Club since the takeover shouldn’t be repeated, with income generated by the Club now sufficient to meet the operational costs of the Club going forward.

 

I said the Commercial Side is supporting the loss making FOOTBALLING side. And you just repeated the self same thing .

 

Chapman in Hartlepool. Has he been released?

 

With his agent?

 

Like peas in a pod. Inseparable they are.

 

We have tried for Whitfield before I think

 

Yeah I think he'll end up having an upgrade on Barrow. Suppose it depends on who stays and what system we use. I could see us trying to move on Oduor, see if Walker gets a deal, if a big offer comes in for Pointon? If GA cleans house, he might go to his usual 433? Then we would need some depth. Fun of the summer guessing game begins!
