Take a moment to think about what's being asked.  The parachute payments are income and we can therefore spend that however we like without any risk of FFP sanctions.  Given the club line this summer has been that we're worried about FFP we MUST have spent money that isn't included as income (i.e. money given by Xia).  Probably not enough to cover the entire allowable amount but because we posted big losses in the relegation season the 2 added together put us in a difficult spot.

So simple answer, yes he has put millions in.

According to Companies House, there's an outstanding charge against Recon due to HSBC. How much it is isn't stated, but we may find the Doctor hasn't put all of the money in from his own pocket. The next accounts are due to be filed by Feb 2018, so we have a while to wait before we find out the true state of the finances, and who's done what.

Have we had the accounts for the relegation season?

Yes, the last two years accounts have been a disaster as per usual.

From memory, did anyone notice if the wages reduced significantly after relegation? Or is Bruce talking nonsense about the "50% reduction"?

I was told that one of our players went from £28k/week to £23k/week which would make it around 20%.  He was not a player brought in just before relegation who may have had different conditions.

I think Bruce's comment was probably a 'Diane Abbott' moment.  I could not imagine the likes of Ayew signing on with a 50% reduction clause and then actually staying on.

Like having been at the club less than six months.

[mr underhill]

thank fuck the porn lords are forking out 30% of Snoddy's wedge.

[brian green]

Probably in dud £1 coins.

[oswald funkletrumpet]

Personally i think the 50% is bollocks

gabby goes from 60k a week to 30k

Then we sign jedinak on 50, lansbury and snodgrass on 40 and terry on god knows how much.

Can't do the Chineses bit, but hopefully the second bit is two out soon, just sign the on the dotted fkn line.

[olaftab]

He says Bruce will be walking soon if no points collected😟

[TB]

The second emoji is Full / No vacancy. So no more incoming, I guess...

[dekko]

No more incoming until some leave.

Or no more incoming and some are leaving.

[Clampy]

He did say Snodders would possibly be the last one.
