I'm carrying on the A.N.Other stuff here, given they seem incapable of reading thread subjects.
Can we move this to the other thread?
Yes I agree. So what are the other plausible reasons why the £8m spend is at that level other than Clem trousering it or doing a Lee.
Inflation v increased (post covid) crowds and player budget reduction. Unknowns include whether people like Hart and Kiely draw fair wage and/or are sapping cash in other ways such as loan repayments and contracts.
What leads some to the negative conclusions they have. And yes here is one more elephant in room.
Do we think Power was dodgy. Do we still have the same hangers on around the club as he originally did. Does Clem coming in as snow white then having a multitude of "mistakes" (not volunteered, found by fans)
Clem could release detailed accounts. He doesn't have to. Would they be believed anyway.
Other contributors include:
- unexplained increased in costs
- unknown repayment terms to Kiely over loan/shares
- two convicted persons around the club, have a right to work but can't pass EFL directors tests for a reason
- 2 being listed as directors on club literature (a mistake)
- wages to some staff being paid late (an accounting error)
- forgetting to disclose who owns part of the club (a mistake landing us in hot water with FA)
- losing 1M+ a season (alegedly) when aim is to be sustainable. That amount not coming down, yet somehow we made a small profit in the Man City/playoff season.
- Currently headed for the beamish line
- hints at being on a financial knife edge
- last minute recruitment, inadequate recruitment
- bringing transfer money forwards
- shirt fire sale
- rinsing fans at every opportunity.
- closing the drawbridge on communications, except to talk crap in Aussie press or his useless at speaking CEO talking bigger crap.
Good things:
- external debt converted to internal debt
- got the ground deal over the line (not financially, but process wise)
contributes to exaggerating the situation at the club in the interests of themselves.
What's the situation in the club then and how is it exaggerated? Do you work at the club? Maybe your underplaying it if not.
