    Bristol City made £11million plus losses.

    from the comments the chairman made it looks like they havent got a handle on the costs especially the wages. £15.9m is almost double our current level! I dont think that the level of achievement warrants those wages costs. Two losses over £11m on the trot thats a lot to cover. It will be hard...

    Season Ticket loan/mortgage

    would love to say yes or no but dont think it is that simple. I suspect that the mortgage if it existed would become an unsecured creditor once we went into administration because the asset it is apparently secured on doesnt actually exist until the tickets are sold. Would possibly depend on how...

    Our squad (& fans who harp on about no other manager being able to do better...)

    You know what sums it up to me NLHWC is the reaction of my lad. He loves his football, loves playing it, loves training 3 times a week, loves watching it, loves Fifa 2012 etc, he is proud of supporting CCFC. He hasnt got involved in sites like this so doesnt really understand the finances &...

    Impact of lower crowds so far this season

    I think everyone hopes so sub, but perhaps so far it hasnt hurt as much as it will by the end of the season. Just taken a guess at £18 on average for both years kg82. It is hard to factor in price changes, free tickets, packages etc. Point was making is that the expense savings will exceed the...

    Impact of lower crowds so far this season

    If you look at the first ten home games this season compared to the first ten last season then the total crowds from those ten games are down by approximately 16500. At say £18 per ticket that equates to close to £300k lost income. I think most would agree that we have made significant savings...

    Season Ticket loan/mortgage

    To be honest, and as you know jan, I do not trust any of the current or past owners of CCFC or indeed have much trust in the white knight that is supposed to be saving us. Without exception they all use the fans for their own purposes.

    Season Ticket loan/mortgage

    and your evidence for this is ? Which is actually my point people make the claims but dont produce the evidence. The article (the only evidence so far given) specifically refers to 2011/12 season Of course there is season ticket income for next year, you are mixing up revenue with cashflow...

    Season Ticket loan/mortgage

    Firstly I would like to say thank you to those who replied to a question I raised regarding the apparent mortgage of season ticket income. The claims surrounding these apparent loans have been bugging me. So what is it we know well firstly it was made public by an article in the CT 11th July...

    Andy Thorn talks utter bollox

    NLHWC i want investment in the team as much as the next man but just wondered where exactly we invest these losses (notice i didnt say cash)saved ? We slashed the wages but it didnt actually put anything in the pot to spend unless you accept that football clubs should be run at a big loss. Did...

    Andy Thorn talks utter bollox

    stupot07 i agree with your comments recently about quality think you are right (although there is more to it :) ) but dont you think that every team, manager and player makes mistakes and can equally point to that for justification of a better points tally or league position? Its the mistakes...

    Richard Keys on Talksport is at it again!!!

    Just a clarification if i may, could someone please point me to the annoucement that next years season tickets sales have actually been mortgaged. Not saying they have or havent but as yet I havent seen more than speculation put forward as fact. I assume i missed it. I know they got up front...
