What became of this once great site.
Bloody hell I haven’t been able to surf all day and I come on a thread dedicated to the club accounts and there’s nary a sniff of balance sheets, profit and loss, EBiTDA, FFP implications, commercial performance and a detailed breakdown of player trading and amortisation implications. All we’ve had is a damning indictment of Xia and Lerner.What became of this once great site.
Xia. What a c**t.

The actual figures aren't showing on Companies House yet, so you'll have to wait a couple of day for amortisation chat.

Next time someone complains about not spending enough on players, just remember, we may not have been here at all if they hadn't have come in.So we can't expect to ever challenge for honours and have to remain grateful instead for them saving us, forever?No Risso, it just puts things into perspective. They still didn't spend enough in January.

I saw some figures today that showed our turnover lower than that of the likes of Everton, Leicester, West Ham and .... fucking Wolves (last year's figures obvs).Spurs more than 2.5x ours, We've underperformed in this sense for years now, it needs to change. Commercial revenue is a big part of that.In fact, here's the chart.Also interesting to see that we're not turning over hugely more than the likes of Southampton and Brighton. That's another part of being a 'big club' where we need to get our act together ASAP.
