We’ve engaged Klutch to find us new sponsorships. Here’s something about them:

I can't believe this. They've really fingered the donkey here. KLUTCH Sports Group is one of the lamest, least winningest douche of a sports partnership partner confederate. They should've gone with HRDN, PriapiK or Fani Joooss. Who's running this goddam franchise?

[Drummond]

They really should disengage them if they want to move up a gear.

They need to find the biting point for what sponsors will pay

The new stadium will be 100% privately financed, seat approximately 25,000 people, and be the first fully electric sports stadium in New York City and all Major League Soccer.

They certainly don’t want to have a steam powered stadium I suppose. Imagine how many chimneys that would need! Can’t believe anyone would build that in this day and age.

I presume this is separate to the Klutch deal ?

No, I think this IS the Klutch deal. We’ve hired them to find us sponsors.

Aston Villa’s published accounts for the 12 months ended 30 June 2025 show that the Club has made significant progress against its stated objective of delivering sustainable improvement both on and off the pitch.

In 2024/25, the Club delivered a sixth-place finish in the Premier League while Champions League football returned to Villa Park for the first time since the 1982/83 season, with Villa reaching the quarter-finals of the tournament and qualifying for the Europa League in 2025/26, representing the Club’s third consecutive season of European competition. This momentum has continued into the current campaign, with the team currently in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League and competing in the Premier League for European places.

This on-field performance has been supported by disciplined execution of the Club’s long-term strategic plan, focused on enhancing the playing squad in a sustainable manner while building long-term financial resilience.

The Club has continued to invest in its infrastructure, with capital investment increasing substantially to £69.3m (£16.4m last year), as the Club completed a comprehensive refurbishment of hospitality lounges in advance of its return to Champions League football, as well as investments in a new retail store at Villa Park and the Bullring Shopping Centre, fan experiences and the wider stadium.

This investment continued into 2025/26, with the completion of The Warehouse at Villa Park, a 3,500-capacity multi-use entertainment venue, as well as the delivery of significant upgrades at Bodymoor Heath, including a new purpose-built rehabilitation centre for the men’s first team, and the establishment of a permanent home for the women’s team at Bodymoor Heath. These investments are a key part of the Club’s commercial strategy to support revenue growth and strengthen the long-term financial position of the Club.

We have recently announced the beginning of preparatory works connected to the previously announced redevelopment of the North Stand at Villa Park, as we continue to invest in the stadium and the surrounding area.

Revenue increased during the year by 37% to £378.1m (2024: £275.7m). A significant part of this increase was driven by participation in the UEFA Champions League through to the quarter-final stage. The Club also made significant progress on sponsorship and commercial performance, with sponsorship revenues increasing by 31% to £28.6m and other commercial revenues by 69% to £70m, year-on-year.

In June 2025, NSWE Sports Limited disposed of its investment in both (1) Aston Villa Women’s Football Club Limited, and (2) a subsidiary holding the operating rights to The Warehouse property to NSWE Holding Limited, a subsidiary of NSWE UK Limited. Both businesses were repositioned within the wider group structure to facilitate external investment without requiring investors to invest directly in the men’s football team.

The net result of these changes is that the Club has reported a profit after tax of £17.0m for the year, compared with a loss of £89.5m in the prior year. These results are consistent with the Club’s strategic business plan, and the Club continues to operate within the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules.

The owners of Aston Villa remain committed to the long-term, sustainable development of the Club and look forward to continued progress on the delivery of the Club’s strategic objectives.

shitting hell, we've turned a profit.

[Dave P]

A profit is good isn’t it? Is this good enough for UEFA?

[Drummond]

I suspect there's not much left to sell, other than players and souls to keep that profit thing going....

£378.1m turnover, is way over 10x the amount of the Chimney boys, while our profit is £12m shy of their overall revenue, for a bit of context.

[andyh]

In any industry and regardless of the actual numbers, to increase revenue by 37% is pretty bloody impressive.

I'm not sure why they are your first thought.
