But they might execute it significantly better..? 🤔

From the guru Kieran Maguire…👍🏻

Not really…I’m right though 😂

Mel Morris’s trick was to say (for example) a £10m player on a 3 year deal will be worth say £7m at the end of that deal so we’ll just take £1m p.a. into the P&L rather than the £3.3m every other club would ! Consequently, Derby’s FFP performance was enhanced..! Funnily enough every other club said “hang on a minute..” 😉

Not so. The fee paid is amortised over the duration of the contract.

Correct…the fee is amortised over the duration of the contract. So long term deals are fine unless/until the player loses form & they want to/need to sell…then the P&L chickens come home to roost !

It matters hugely as it affects our income which affects FFP which affects how much headroom we have to spend.

Brighton have just sold Trossard so not surprising if they need to bring one in first…

Not sure that these links work...only the last one for me ?

🤦‍♂️😆

We did discuss on the concourse after the game posting “One Word After Rotherham” 😆

It’s where we have possession that is crucial…it’s rarely in the opposition penalty area for sure…

I think it was Harry Berry (an accountant by trade) who noted on these pages some years ago that Indian tax law precludes losses in the UK being offset against profits generated in India….so even that theory doesn’t hold water…🤷‍♂️

This from Rich Sharpe is damning…ONE FOUL

"Lowey's actually watching the Manc derby on his iPad..."

Last time we won at Rotherham…Gomez, Lenihan, Grimes…Smallwood in the oppo midfield…

Blackburn Rovers…helping teams to recover form since 1875…😆

Presumably negotiating brinkmanship ? 🤔
