No profit yet then? I wonder when we'll see the other £10m? |  | |  |

Could well be negative actually if City want their 20% of his fee. Great business that. I hope this dreadful deal will be learned from. Very very well protected lol |  |

Pretty much all transfers fees are paid this way. It's still counted as profit as the rest of the fee is guaranteed (not dependent on clauses). |  | |  |

The terms are relatively unimportant for PSR. The outstanding payment appears in the accounts as an outstanding receivable, and allows us ‘trade’ against that income even though it hasn’t been paid to us yet. |  | |  |

I know all transfers are completed in this manner these days, that's why it seems odd to actually make a point of saying we only received £20m. Why not just say the deal was completed for £30m as would normally be the case? |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Not for another 14 years and that's only after he has a CL Winners medal and 50 England caps. However, (and this is where it get's interesting), we have to collect it in Berlin, the cash is going to be stashed behind the Reichstag after Chelsea have won the 2039 Fifa Club World Cup in Saudi. They are flying back from Jeddah but connecting through there to throw the PSR regulators off scent. [Post edited 4 Jun 23:16]

Yes there will be profit, obviously the extra 10M is to come next summer but it's unlikely we will have paid the 15M/ 20M in one instalment. It's probably more likely that will pay over 3/5 years (length of his ITFC contract) so we will have paid something like 5/7M so far and got back 20 - % of profit clause. So certainly 10M profit on the books already. |  | |  |

Might want to edit this analogy to state that it's a classic car that's appreciating in value, rather than a clapped out banger that's had an extra year of wear and tear before heading for the scrapyard... |  |

The club haven't made a point of that, this is speculation from the media. It has probably come from respected sources and likely the truth, but the club hasn't come out and said this is the case. It's an undisclosed fee, so basically, the club have said nothing about the fee at all. [Post edited 5 Jun 7:29]

Well I hope there is interest added to these transactions - black horse finance? I’m sure a friendly against Chelsea would be a great earner! Lazio still owe Ipswich 1! |  | |  |

Actually. You shouldn’t believe all you read. We’ve made a massive loss. The fee to Man C was £25m paid up front. Wages for the year £5m. Man C are entitled to 20% on the whole Chelsea fee - £6m payable up front and Chelsea are paying what they owe us over the life of the contract. So we will lose only £6m over the six years. It could be worse. The moon is made of cheese (not Wensleydale), Bluey is off to the glue factory to save money and Ashton has decided yellow and green is a lovely colour combo so that will the first team kit next year, Oh, he’s also bought a suit of armour, so when he’s clanking around Ipswich he’s ‘well protected’. If people are going to make up a load of nonsense, why shouldn’t I? |  | |  |
So we buy Delap for £15m plus £5m add ons...... on 07:46 - Jun 5 with 1710 views | tetchris | Like Ashton has already said, Man City set the terms of the deal, we either accepted it or the player signed for someone else. Let’s move on he is gone now! |  | |  |
So we buy Delap for £15m plus £5m add ons...... on 07:48 - Jun 5 with 1699 views | SuperKieranMcKenna | Those were the terms at which we could have signed him. Would you have preferred we signed someone sh1t like Archer or Edouard. Then you’d end up with no profit, AND no goals. Delap for me was one of the few enjoyable parts of a fairly miserable season. |  | |  |
