It will be over 50 million and less than 100, probably somewhere in the middle. Couple of guesses but it at 70 million.

And how do you know this?

Then how could we afford Alcaraz? Losses were down quite considerably from the previous year and this year they should be lower still.

A 30 million contract's amortization value is 6 million per year if player signs a five year contract. That's over the entire year. If player signs on June 1st and financial year ends in June 30th amortization is just 1/12 of that annual cost. So...

There seems to be exactly one young player who is anywhere near that level. Rest are just wishful thinking at this stage.

No it doesn't. Do you think we are so close to PSR breach that a few hundred thousand will do it?

It doesn't work like that. Amortization is what affects the bottom line and a 30 million contract's amortization for a month is about 400k.

And that has some big issues. First, how much loss will we make this season? How much of that can be deducted from the PSR calculations? How much does the club project to make profit next season, including possible sponsorship deals that have not...

So is 0. Why get stuck on a value that probably has nothing to do with the real number?

But those numbers are complete guesswork. Only club insiders know the real numbers because they heavily depend on this season's financial result. And these Football Insiders have absolutely no clue about it.

There are freebies and loans available as well and I'm certain we will see both.

Yes, because flying from here to the airport from where I can fly to Manchester costs half of that because there's just one carrrier and lots of demand. Those were the cheapest tickets I could find. I stayed in the Z hotel for two nights.

Again, you compare something that is actually not required. Beer probably is, baseball is so incredibly boring I can't understand how anyone can watch that sober. And in this case you are looking at HOSPITALITY prices. Not just your regular...

Usually technical director has more than that on his plate. Pretty much everyone else except Kinnear obviously would be under Cox. He would oversee recruitment, footballing strategy etc. Or as Ashworth once said, he was the hub connecting all...

So if you want to go see the Eiffel tower, you can do that for free as long as you don't go up? Cost is a cost. Meals, scarves etc are definitely bonus items and not mandatory expenses. For overseas fans flights are just like if you go to Ibiza...
