I am not keen on ALK/Pace in general but even I'm willing to concede that this statement is a bit of a nothing passage. If I have a sandwich shop it's akin to my auditors saying 'if this kid is unable to make sandwiches, or is unable to procure stock to make said sandwiches, or the premises falls d...

aggi

The long and short: The auditors have confirmed that there is a risk we would not be a going concern as per note 2.4 in our accounts (as posted by aggi above) Essentially the board has stated the main risk to us is relegation from the PL (and the reduced revenue as a result) but if that happened it...

VAR was checking for offside. It wasn't particularly close though.

The freekick can't get checked.

aggi

This is the wording from the accounts. There's a risk, it's probably not that big a risk: These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. The directors have reasonable expectation that the group will continue in operation existence for the foreseeable future. The directors are awar...

In over 60 years of watching Burnley I’ve never seen a worse passer of a football.
His assist tonight must have been a mis-hit.

He's got the most assists in the team this season.

Brighton just announced a British record 123m profit for a football club Second highest after Spurs in 2018. Mainly driven by Chelsea it looks like! Not only the players but £23m for Potter. Interesting to see that the club has started to pay back a bit, £35m, of the £400m or so that is owed to the...

aggi

My point is that ALK paid a lot more than that when they bought the club and they offered over 5 times that amount not so long ago. That looks more like the price the shares were traded at when we were in the third tier. Yes, because buying shares to gain control is a lot different to buying a hand...

aggi

I got a mail about this last week. 122478 shares at 300 quid each is less than 37m, has the value of the club slumped that much? Are they trying to pick up shares on the cheap? It's not a very dynamic website, I expected to see more than just an advertising page. Small shareholdings in a limited co...

The bigger picture is we are up **** creek if we don't go back up within 2 or 3 years.

That is true of any Championship club without owners who will subsidise them by tens of millions.

aggi

My main concern even if we go down is the money that we may be committed to pay yet on Tresor and that we will be for Ramsey, Trafford and Amdouni. I hope that there a big proportion of their fees yet to be paid are performance based. As an illustration on how much can be performance based: In thes...

Need to have a longer look at the accounts but from what I have seen they are worse than I was expecting. The wages were higher than I was expecting but I’m guessing they will have included promotion bonuses given we went up 2 or 3 months before the year end. They may also include some payments to ...

aggi

I'm not financial expert but it reads how you would expect, no major surprises, no major worries. good job Alan I'd say the confirmation of the increase in the loan is the major thing. Previous loans had been used to fund the purchase of the club. Not ideal but not something that reflects on day-to...

aggi

Obvious thing is the jump in loans from ~ £45m to £70m. I imagine that was mainly to fund the player trading (although the amounts we owe on transfers has already likely gone up). Wages down from £92m to £53.5m. Surprised they didn't cut that more given relegation clauses and a lot of experienced pl...

There's definitely a bias when it comes to yellow cards. And I say this, we'll aware that I, too, am biased. But I often look at the end of games, where we will have 2 or 3 more yellows than the opposition, thinking we've been kicked all over the park, and have been the victim of countless cynical ...

I've been involved in TV residuals over the years and it's a real minefield. Payments generally come out of profits and a lot of effort is made to keep those paper profits low.

I have to say your first point seems somewhat self contradictory : "apart from when you sell players for a profit, it doesn't affect profit" on your second point I think you'll have to prorate things no matter where you draw the cutoff point anyway so kind of a moot point. The rest is fair enough. ...

yes so if they had sold Johsnson in June for 35 million they would have had losses of around 60 mil for the 3 year period (1 mil below the max allowed).

The goal would have been ruled out and a penalty given is what I’m told as daft as that seems I wonder why that would be.

Wonder why it wasn't six. Feels very much like they are making it up as they go along.

But they did judge it and that's why we had the long wait. They were still checking for a potential foul by Muric when the goal was scored and that check had to be completed before the goal could be given. But they weren't going to disallow the goal to give the foul so we don't know what the outcom...

aggi

Had it not been for them scoring, I did wonder if VAR would have looked at the Muric challenge on Toney. He seemed to go through the back of him to claw the ball away a few moments earlier. I think Muric got a bit lucky there. Could easily see that being a penalty but not judged as they socred with...

A back pass has to be played by the foot. The keeper can pick it up if it comes off the shin, knee or thigh. In this case it came off the Bees player’s knee.

The USD needs to stop pumping though as crypto tends to drop with a strong Dollar.

Those who are expecting/hoping for crypto to soar to huge values probably need to consider that this will likely be matched to a slump in the dollar and what that will mean for the global economy.

Crowdfunding a legal defence by promising all proceeds to charity is an unusual move. Especially when you've clearly and openly done what you're accused of.

Particularly when he's the defendant. I can't see many damages coming from that.
