  1. Worked out for everyone, unfortunately.?
  2. I forgot all about Eddie Howe being your manager. Done a superb job since and always linked with big jobs. Strange how things work out.
  3. Listening to Radio 5 today about FFP. If we have a similar season this year to last we’ll be struggling to get under the £39m over 3 years loss target either next year or particularly the year after. Assuming our income will go up with more TV money but the outgoings will be much more than last year with new signings. If so we’ll need to make big savings (how?) or sell Bradley Dack to balance the books.
  4. Yes that works at the moment. What if the owners wanted some money back though? Their best bet might be to call in the debt, sell everything and just take what they can get for it and leave the club bankrupt. I think the current status quo is likely to continue for now but who knows what the future holds.
  5. The debt is real, let’s have no doubt about that. We may not have to pay interest on the majority of our debt but it is debt whichever way you look at it.
  6. So in summary we owe £125M or so and are worth probably about £25M. Does that sound like a reasonable estimate? We are insolvent to the tune of £100M and are only propped up by VLLs share capital which isn't really worth the paper it is written on as it's main asset is a football club which is worth bobbins. Excuse my lack of understanding of accounting principles but this sounds like a fair summary. What a mess, Venkys would have to stand a loss of more than £200M if they were to sell, I can't see that happening so we're stuck with them for the foreseeable.
  7. Please not 3 at the back, please not Bell in any formation. We are really struggling without Lenihan and I can’t suggest any way of getting past that other just hoping that Preston miss the chances we will gift them. Just shows you that proper defenders may be going out of fashion but outside the higher levels of the game they are the key to everything.
