lancy lad Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 But that was a Gross figure, not a net figure. The net figure would be much less than that. The point is they budgetted to make a loss, this year we probably didn't. But did not get a sell on fee for anyone this yeard did we? If we are alosing £25k per week, that is £1.30m per year. So not sure what the current level is, perhaps someone could say? Understand what you are saying singe, but what I am getting at is that it would have been impossible to factor in a cup run that shocked the whole of the football supporting nation. We also made loads from the TV (when we are very rarely on it). Any decent business has to speculate to accumulate (to some extent - albeit be wise with the extra money you throw into the ring) if it is going to improve on an ongoing basis. Yet Corney's stance of saying that we couldn't afford an experienced manager and his insistence to give a rookie a try at our most desperate time (not a dig at Johnson BTW, I think he is doing okay but trying out a young fella with no experience whatsoever when we did is a mahoosive risk to take).

Ackey Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Who cares really? Corney (Blitz & Gazal) will just state it's a helping hand to yet another financial loss and line their pockets once again with :censored: all given to team building! I'm a big critic of their management style and inability to learn from their mistakes.... but the idea they're lining their pockets is laughable!

razza699 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 (edited) I've been wondering lately, are blitz and gazal technically owners still? Or did they sell the club to Simon Corney when they left? Corney sold the sell on clause for a replica FA Cup. FACT Edited April 15, 2013 by razza699 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So not sure what the current level is, perhaps someone could say? The £1m is after VAT and accounts for matchday costs. Other than player bonuses i can't think there's much else to come out of it. And where has this "£25k a week losses" come from? Corney has cut costs to the bone. demolishing the lookers has saved a fortune in maintenance, running costs, stewarding etc. I thought the board had claimed the finances were now stable?

He just says whatever he wants. It's taken a while but I have worked it out now. If we had the best ever run and got to the Prem on peanuts, he would say the budget is in the top half. He is full of :censored:! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 How many times !!??? We did not sell the sell on clause. Corney has said so recently, Barry has said so recently. Must have missed that. Twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I apologise Real you are right. I stand corrected, it is net of all major costs except bonuses. I do know we still budget a loss, but not sure what it is. But that said, we did use some money to fund Baxter deal, and several loans I suspect. But true, still significant money made. Lets hope some went back to Blitz/Gazal.

opinions4u Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 We might budget a loss but, thanks to the FA Cup, we've been in the black two years running. Three. The £8k profit declared arose before the Anfield game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie_J Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Three. The £8k profit declared arose before the Anfield game. Even better then. Yet the downsizing of the club hasn't let up during that period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
