Thread: £3 million per month being lost? How?

    £3 million per month being lost? How?

    Not disputing the figure or saying it is incorrect but how are we losing £3 million per month?

    Can somebody break it down?

    Also how does this compare with other seasons? What do we lose monthly when running in a regular season?

    Where's the income?
    Bit of sky money plus last of parachute payments but no ticket sales or associated income plus I doubt whether Covid struck people are buying many shirts etc. Presumably the various sponsorships would be related to attendances and tv exposure ???

    In the mean time they're apparently paying £65 K a week towards Harry Wilsons wages plus the other wages , maintaining the ground and facilities , hotels, traveling, security , housing etc etc ad inf.

    In common with every other club that can't go on forever.

    There was also a meet with CCFC and some messageboard members fed back.

    Looks like you've got a bit of catching up to do

    i would wager 70% or more is in players' wages.

    Our wage bill is 30m plus, we have no revenue streams.

    We are paying nowhere near £65k a week..your way out!!

    Re: £3 million per month being lost? How?

    Given the size of our squad that would put our average weekly wage at not too far shy of £20,000 a week.

    That is not right surely?

    Apparently our wage bill was 48m last season. It'll be in the accounts.

    That is eyewatering.

    Who left to reduce that by £18 million?

    I was guessing but NML, Patto, Pelts, Richards, Connolly, Bogle, Etheridge and Ward all left. If you estimate they're all on 20k a week, that's about 8m. While some won't be on that, some will have been on more.

    According to the article, that was our wage bill for the 2017/18 season.

    That will teach me to read the table. Still, it will be very, very high. I'd guess my first 30m estimate was close then!

    You can take a fair bit more off that, the article's from June 2019 so that's prior to the departures of Reid, Gunnarsson, Zohore, Manga etc

    We paid over £20m in promotion bonuses at the end of that season, so about £30m for this season sounds about right.

    Some of the players that signed new deals when we got promoted should have had wage reductions when we got relegated... Then again, it is Cardiff...

    Re: £3 million per month being lost? How?

    How does that wage bill compare with other clubs in the Championship this season?

  24. #24

    Re: £3 million per month being lost? How?

    Wages, players wages, and the owners (and his appointed management) fees.

    Hope this helps.
