Nearly 50k a week running losses. God only knows what it will be this year. I am very close to chucking in the towel.

I'm presuming you get to £50k per week by dividing the operating loss of £2.5 million by 52?

Isn't that a bit simplistic? Surely there's one off costs included in that? Maybe, I'm the simple one 
 

Sugar coat it all you like its weekly or was lump sums but thats an awful amount of money to lose

Agreed Affshore but losing 2.5m over a 12 month period does not equate to hemorrhaging 50k every week

yagetme?

 

Did your pal down at The Royal Arch tell you that? 

No matter how you try and dress it up either as a weekly loss or a yearly loss it still works out at 50k a week ffs.

A little knowledge is usually very dangerous GC2. But you would be correct to assume that "one off " costs such as paying poor management teams to leave are normally included in the operating losses. 
 

 
Running costs were £2.53 in the red were they not??

'Redundancies' were £400k of that amount.  Even you lot are not gonna dress this up, surely to fuk??

What is very dangerous is the way these people have been running our Club.

Not trying to dress anything up. Just saying that £2.53m loss is not made up of consistent, weekly losses of £50k. That's highly unlikely. I would hope that a lot of the £2.53m is made up of one-off big hits.

For the record, I want Thompson out and someone in who can bring not just investment and nous to the business side of the club, but positivity to the whole club including the playing side.

Out of interest, what period does the accounts cover? Jan 16- Jan 17 rather than a financial year ie April?

Will the accounts details how much was shelled out to waste of spaces Kawashima, demel, pongolle etc?

 
End of June 2016. So doesn't even begin to cover being in Division Fun yet.

Yes - but that's irrelevant 

How is that irrelevant???  

Honest to fuck.

Ooh joy!

I'm intrigued to see how much a bang average goalkeeper cost us....

Demel - meant to be a leader using his experience- he got wound up by a no mark from Dundee. Few k a week?

It is irrelevant.
There is a massive difference between running a business that breaks even every week, but has an unusual, one-off expense once in a year of 2.5 million, and a business that runs at a loss of 50k every week. The first business is a viable one that's being run in a responsible manner, the second business is not. Even though they both average out to losing 50k per week.
And I'm not trying to say you can just forget about the one-off expense. It still needs to be paid and it's still a big problem.

Anyone know a company who had a one off expense of £2.5million??




 

CA, which company do you think United  are most like, the one who is pissing money every single week or the one that is a tight ship apart from a big amount having to go out now and again??
