Yes, its far better financially to be in the Prem (depending on how the club is managed), but they talk as if its £170m of clear profit. | |

'Profits'. This maybe your point MM but so few Clubs actually make a profit. | |

That was my point, although I think that is changing with the new income levels. Burnley for example make a decent profit. [Post edited 29 May 2019 11:55]

It does amuse me when Ashley gets abused for not spending money (he quite clearly is) and returns a profit at a football club. Isn't that just good financial management? It's ridiculous so many clubs are in debt with that amount of money flying around. | | | |

Well, quite. It's telling though that with the latest TV deal that some clubs are making a profit whilst being relatively stable in the Premier League. Obviously most of them are still only one season from relegation and it all going wring. | |

David Conn on Bury's financial woes on 13:48 - May 29 with 450 views | GeoffSentence | I wonder how the league would handle things if Bury did get wound up. Would Mansfield get promoted as the next highest team, even though they failed in the play offs. Or Newport as the losing play-off finalists. And what about poor old Colchester, one minute away from a play-off place, when, if Bury do get wound up ,maybe they should have had a shot at it all along. What a mess. | |
