Wages and transfers.

I’m not sure why you even need to ask the question. Surely it’s pretty obvious that it will be spent on wages (playing and none playing staff), transfers (are we actually under an embargo still or just subject to certain controls?) and other operating expenses.

Ok Roy but we may get more than £8 m in ticket money plus all the add ons. So we could actually make a profit? Would we be the only team in the Efl to make a profit?

I just think £8 m absolute wage cap is very penal… I was expecting more like £10m . We may get more than £8 m in ticket money alone.  Then there’s all the other income . Relegated teams would normally get a cap of 75% of revenue.

EFL have to answer how CK passed their fit and proper test along with the arrogant Q, so the fit and proper test is not worth the paper its written on, wait a minute Ridsdale passed it says it all, on a serious note for Derby how much these 2 cowboys cost Derby, hope we take action for compensation.

Bullet dodged! As an aside, does Maguire have nothing better to do?

There's a lot of costs to running a football club that aren't players wages, same as ticket sales aren't the only income.

Published accounts are the most you're likely to get apart from vague suggestions from the owner's about budgets and expectations.

I'm honestly not sure what the suggestion is if ticket sales are more than £8m over the season and wages are capped at £8m - is it some notion that they'll go to the owner as profits?

If the club choose to share details of anything so be it and that's great but when/if you pay for a concert/theatre ticket do you expect to see details of their expenditure first?  We have no idea what Mr Clowes has agreed to on an ongoing basis on buying the club and that's fine. 
You think the discussions on here are are anal about amortisation which is at least football related - what will happen if the stationery budget figures are available?

I assume that is how he makes his income so probably not

a lecturer in finance at a uni isnt he specialising in football finance? And presumably doing consultancy work also if he gets paid for some commentating? So it is his job really. If only we were paid for being on here we could have bought the club ourselves

No need to chase him around in Texas or on twitter. Just wait until the next LIV golf event and catch him on the first tee.

He’ll be hoping he can somehow damage the club by association.

Looking at the build of Kirchner I'd say whoever is sent to serve him papers will probably have the upper hand in terms of speed, agility and stamina.
