because it is a capital project.
So it’s impact is on the Balance sheet not the Profit and loss account.

As a result, in the last 10 years the top two English leagues have lost a massive £3.1 bln pre-tax with the largest losses at #AVFC £455m and #MCFC £446m. In this period only 11 out of 44 clubs managed to make money, led by #THFC £338m, #MUFC £191m, #AFC £112m and #NUFC £94m.

I'm scratching my head and wondering how that is even possible.

Yep, I get that. But even so. Four hundred and fifty-five million?

I think if you look here - you can see a big reason for it:

over the last 10 years our transfer business has been awful.  Hopefully that has now been amended - but that cant help at all.

So in 2019/20 fifteen players left and we didn't receive a penny for the lot. That season looks to be responsible for about 30% of that total. Glad it's not my money.

What was he, about 55 when we signed him?

When you think what the last 10 years have included, it’s no surprise. Lerner, Xia, Championship football. I’d be shocked if a similar chart for the last 2 years wouldn’t be a lot healthier looking.

We spent around £700 million to end up worse off than we started. That's impressive.

Came on for 5 minutes up front and looked like he was going to pass out.

Bloke behind said "fair play to him though, he has put a hell of a shift in".
