Where’s the balancing statement of costs over the same period? Without it these income figures mean nothing.

I keep hearing prople quoting fees from player sales etc. but they rarely mention similar outgoings, wages or running costs.

 

I also see the word 'greed' mentioned, in relation to the CL prices but who is being greedy?  Are board members taking big bonuses or pay increases?

Am I right in saying the 3 game CL package is less than 200 quid?. If so, that's comparable to 3 theatre tickets, and nowhere near some concert prices.

winger that scores a ridiculous number of goals. 

 

Also injured a hell of a lot.

The tweet said that those were the numbers announced by the club.

 

They understandably don't give a rundown of costs (other than a general view in the annual accounts) and hence providing such figures would be (educated) guesswork.

 

The revenue figures are significant in their record breaking glory. If significant profit hasn't been made, heids should roll.....but the accounts this year and next, will tell us more.

No more injury prone players.

The squad has too many as it is.

The oldest truth in business is that you can't spend income, only profit. If you don't know our profitability or cashflow then commenting on income as a basis for further spending is a pointless exercise.

If we can’t spend now, after the financial benefits of making the EL final, the CL, the money for Gerrard and co, the money for Patterson, the money for Aribo and Bassey. Then we have to face up to the fact we will never be in a position to spend money.

[Rousseau 10,603]

Have we not spent enough?

 

We're at about £12m, excluding Tillman and all the academy signings.

You often tell us that here are many 'no-go areas' for a football fans message board due to a lack of precise knowledge or respect for respective director(s).

 

The fact is that football fans do talk about such things regardless and whilst you are right to qualify such a discussion, don't expect to close it down.

 

The irony being the Lounge and your willingness to repeatedly pronounce on more important issues way above your paygrade, mostly without precise knowledge or 'due respect'. 

 

Free speech in both Rangers chat & the lounge !! 😀
