i84est Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 What happens when we can operate on a profit because even though we would make money we still need to pay of the debt so will we still be in this position for a long time ie we make a million profit every year it will take about 25 year plus to be debt free.

Ambitious Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 They will undoubtedly in my mind sell us to the highest bidder! and they will be very proud of running probably the first profitable club in the UK, which at this moment seems impossible, some teams obviously get parachute payments and sell a player for a large amount in some cases. but take away all your variables and still have a revenue that outweighs expenses in this day and age, it's just not possible and our owners are engineering every method possible to make it so, once they have done that. The sports management corporation will sell us to the highest bidder and what happens then, who knows. We have to understand that the FFP will have an effect on anyone coming into buy us...

Alph Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 We become the only club in the football league that's got balanced books. We enjoy trips to Chesterfield and Dagenham. And laugh at teams spending millions to win European Cups and English titles. "Ha! Look at them fools with their £10m signings losing a CL final to Bayern Munich! Wait until the FFP kicks in properly" .-Derby fan Steve Smith on his way to league game v Luton. December 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagerbob Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 We keep selling players to remain sustainable, bringing through youth players and buying from the lower leagues. This is probably true. Our foreign owners are going down the route of foreign clubs who dont have the money being raked in. They invest in youth development, an academy and young starlets furtehr down the pyramid. Then when the big boys come in, they have to pay miles over the odds for the very best of the scores of decent young players we have been spunking through our academy setup.

It's scare mongering tactic used by Tom Glick. But you won't have to worry about doing a Pompey. That will certainly not happen with this board. You won't have to worry about doing a Blackpool or a WBA either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we'd still run the Yanks outta town, because what do they know of 'soccer'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
