Ah yea got my years confused there as we were talking sixfields for a moment :/

How many had ticket at Sixfields, a few 100 at most? I'd also imagine merchandise revenue would be up on the Sixfields era even in depsite the lack of stock. Not arguing with you on the cups, was just pointing out the Birmingham fixture was hardly significant. Taking the Wilson sale into...

Ticket price is pretty much the same, no match day increase is the only difference. Prize money is minimal at 3rd/4th round and Birmingham attendance was about 10k so not major, and without being privy to the deals you can't really say what difference there would be sponsorship. As you rightly...

I think our revenue at the Ricoh in 12/13 was something like 6.5 million compared to 3 million at Sixfields last season, if we can get to something close to that this year than add the Wilson transfer fee we could be close to breaking even for the season.

How is it possible to pay 1.40 for every pound in? We would have been in embargo due to FFP

Btw how we were spending £1.40 for every £1.00 in as has been claimed? Only allowed to spend 60% right?

Even more so than usual though.

Exceptional circumstances though for the years accounts, it isn't typical of a regular year.

tbf I'd call every team in this league outside of the top 5 poor, it will be the least shit team this year that scrapes into the play offs in 6th place.

I guess the positive is when you don't have a clue, if Wasps lost you probably wouldn't have even known it.

With the amount of free tickets and those who are paying only £15-20 its not unreasonable to believe that Wasps are actually taking in less money in ticket revenue than Adams Park. As long as the attendance is higher though they will continue to tell us it has been a great success.

It's obvious the actual paying crowd is a lot less than what is being announced, how many more is just guesswork. If they can keep saying we got X time the crowd would have been at Adams Park or we got X number of fans more than CCFC they can keep telling us it is a success and hope that...

Hope you're right but the same is said almost every year.

Does anyone know how much the club paid to Northampton to get out of Sixfields?

Dunno, this is what I meant in the other thread before. Everyone draws there own conclusions despite not fully understanding and picks out the parts they want to see. Truth is unless you are an accountant you should probably keep your opinions on the accounts to yourself as no disrespect it...

Or maybe that means from the 5.6 million, 4.6 million is staff costs?

Probably, also announced that Cardiff are 170 million in debt to Tan the other day. All for chasing one year in the premier league.

Told ya, pointless looking at the accounts for simpletons like me. They try and tell us they've written off 60 million and the OSB and Godiva come an tell us they haven't and we are still 40 million in debt to SISU. Still confused. :confused:

Point taken, its just the same thing happens every year. A massive deal is made of them every year, one side try to dress it up one way and the other side the other. Then OSB comes in and speaks in riddles which I don't understand and then we do it all again in 12 months.

Without the proper accounting knowledge or expertise, any conclusions drawn from this will likely be ill-informed and wrong anyway. People will see what they want to see.
