Looks like myself who will be 80 in October and just given up my season ticket after just 1 game last season and none this season will now be able to watch all mid week games next season if we are relegated. Very pleased for you and others in similar situations that this will be the case - potentia...

Some shocking agent fees.

Looks like we have spent over 10m in two years on agent fees.
4m in the last accounts then nearly 7m Feb to Feb.

Posted last years up the page on Tuesday this week

I hope so - not sure how any club expects to grow a foreign fan base if the games can't be watched. You got a nice shout out on the Beehole podcast btw

I am far from sure that is a good thing

that absolutely sucks - so if I'm reading it correctly then there is no guaranteed live coverage of the weekend Championship games meaning those of us abroad can no longer watch the game. edit: Sounds like this is for the UK domestic market, not sure how it will work for those abroad I read it as i...

Many don't have sympathy with the Premier League over the £533m they give away to the English game each season and are demanding more, particularly the EFL, the organisation that once turned down the share of revenues it is now seeking. Those same people are almost universally in support of the prop...

Yeah they certainly spent a lot. The initial video which they put out was orchestrated by Saatchi and Saatchi and wasn't cheap (for what was a simple interview video). This was filmed a few weeks before the takeover was completed so there was clearly a bit of money available at that point. it makes...

Thanks CP! It's definitely our intention to do a few more 'deep dive' type episodes. We're working on getting some experts on different issues/subjects.

More importantly, being aware of that ignorance, and as such not proffering opinions about subjects you do not have a grasp on.

I think a big factor in that mindset that sometimes goes unnoticed is the strength of the US dollar in recent years, especially against the £. US capital has been snapping up UK companies with that discount priced in so that might explain why ALK thought they were getting the club at a decent price...

Chester Perry

They think they bought Burnley at a cheap price. There has been a strange consensus among American investors in the game that English and European clubs are 'under-valued'. This seems to be because they compare PL club's values to those of the NFL franchises. But of course there are a ton of reason...

It's a while ago now - I think it's shocking. That's a title that has always been used as a special recognition.

I'm not sure we know (Chester might) but the problem is if they are giving away equity they are diluting their shareholding quite dramatically if you believe some of the rhetoric. Albeit I did get an explanation about the class of shares (not Chester), which left me pondering why anyone would inves...

Chester Perry

I've sometimes referred to the ALK model as being like a horse-racing syndicate - people invest for a share in the vehicle which ultimately owns the club. Am I far off the mark with that assumption CP? It is a reasonable analogy - though it is not as innovative as you may think - FSG is a similar m...

Maybe they’re worried about those points too?! Let’s be honest, Pace and his investors will be losing an astronomical amount of cash (to us mere mortals) if this all goes t!ts up.

There’s only one owner who has actually come out and spoken freely about their recent accounts and that’s Paul barber at Brighton, easy to do when you have made 127m profit.

It does all seem a bit half assed.

Chester Perry references the "public lies about taking the Premier League warnings seriously" and this became abundantly clear when their Operating Loss for the last financial year was published at £89m.

Absolutely makes a mockery of the whole system. They cheated ( there is no other word did it) the punishment should have been relegation, the same applies to Forest. By doing so it sends a strong and clear message. These points deductions are arbitrary and effectively in this case means you can che...

You do get the impression that by giving a soft penalty to Everton it means that Man City won't get punished unduly and they'll be able to easily absorb a few points without too many issues. it depends on how you see things - Everton believed they would get a zero points penalty for this hearing an...

No idea, hate the fact ALK seemingly have no money of their own, everything is just borrowed using the club as leverage. Absolutely no idea how we sustain ourselves in the Championship for 2+ years.
