I assume that's the US company which is listed on an Edgar search

Other than the last 5mins of the first half, never seen The Grand Old Lady sound more dead than a morgue at Everton.

I guess their fans are at a similar apathy stage as Towns?  Hmmm

Also found this anecdote and it couldn't be more true

'...the only thing worse for a football club than a toxic fanbase is one that has been ground into apathy.'

Well, yeah but it is only on TNT and it’s associated channels.

Is TNT a widely available channel for anyone without some kind of TV package.

Get a Firestick and problem solved.

QPR accounts published. How on earth are they still afloat. Another £20m annual loss to add to their accumulated losses - now north of £300m. Losing £55,000 a day and in the Championship relegation zone. Paying salaries of £109 for every £100 of income. Whatever model clubs are using they aren’t working.

Surely they are totally in breach of FPP rules? (whatever they may be these days)

Well, that’s what their fans are thinking. Don’t forget they still have to lay off that huge fine they got - £40m?. They’re hoping the £12m they’ve ‘earmarked’ for a training complex will be offset against those losses. Dropping into L1 will put them right in it.

Not sure if it belongs in the right or wrong thread, but I see Andy Holt, Accrington owner, has been active on twitter re their finances.
£1m loss last year which he says can’t be continued so has set out plans to close the gap and make them sustainable. Mostly through increasing revenue, including ticket and food & drink prices but also cutting playing budget, I think from around £1.5m to £1.2m.
Was very open about the tightrope needing to be walked, particularly when so many other clubs are throwing around wages that aren’t affordable.
The sort of openness that’s sadly lacking here of course.
Interestingly he was also bemoaning that over 60% of their playing budget was going to players currently out injured, though not sure what plans he had for addressing that!
