It was from the club, who initially owned 50% of ACL, but sold off the family silver to Higgs for a bit of cash in the best style of tory privatisations.

You might struggle for one of those as it didn't happen.

Wondered when they'd file their accounts. Noticed last week that they were massively overdue, an outrage apparently.

Is that still going? When I was young(a long time ago admittedly), used to have a huge choice in music magazines/papers. Smash Hits for the young girls, then NME, Melody Maker, Record Mirror, Sounds, Kerrang for the Greebos. Hardly any of them left now.

Winner of the most ironic comment of the month, and it's only the first!

That's probably the fault of us, the fans, who demand that we spend more money on players wages than is brought in. Probably paid closer to £10million at the Ricoh with all the excess "charges" since been there, and not a penny given back in cut of sales from F&B.

As opposed to the enormous profits we were making whilst playing at The Ricoh of course.

Didn't notice that in OSB's dissection: Though of course if that was the case, then would have made quite a considerable loss on usual activities with a declared actual profit of £775,000. Probably. I'm not an accountant, but know more than I've ever fucking wanted to know about accounts the...

Yep, that's the one with the jump from around £7million to around £14million. All previous years around £6-7.5 million.

Yes, there were always going to be increased costs to having the Olympics, and were very unlikely to make a profit for ACL overall. Said that all along, though many seemed to think that there would be huge profits made from holding the Olympics.

Revenue has gone up incrementally each year, generally on a very gentle climb. 2012 accounts showed it doubling from the previous year. If they have maintained the same as that for the last two years then what the fuck were they doing before? I will place a bet with you now for £100(save it...

There is no way in the World that current turnover is £14million and growing. Think a bit of semantics there, saying that "current" turnover is £14million would be referring to the "current" publlically released accounts. Can see no way in the World that the turnover has doubled from previous...

Let me guess? In about 3 weeks? With pie money?

Well going from around £6-£7million per year to £14million the Olympic year does suggest a rather large hike on the average. You wouldn't be expecting the same for last year would you?

Adam Ant. No reason, just like dressing up as Adam Ant.

He was also saying about the turnover being up, which was entirely due to the Olympics. Doubled turnover, reduced profits, luckily they only come round every 80 years or so!

Grendel was right though, everybody else seems to be a buffoon. The extra turnover was due to the Olympics.

Readers Wives might gain a slightly larger readership.

Why always questioning what I was doing, who I was seeing, what was said? Going to have to ask you this Dongle. Are you my ex-wife??

What it is doing is putting out information that people may take as fact or not, but regardless would have some influence, either directly or subliminally upon their thinking. Not doing others work for them as i've said.
