Re: Bournemouth......
I know he’s still up there but wondered whether he was still a Bournemouth player. Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s still on loan though. He would still be under contract at Bournemouth until the end of the season.Vegas Claret wrote:He played for Rangers midweek in the Europa league so he's either on loan or signed permanently

Yeah he's at Rangers, I think he's currently their main striking option for some reason.ClaretTony wrote:Is Defoe still out on loan?
Re: Bournemouth......
I wish we more like Bournemouth
Giving Jermaine Defoe a 4 year contract of £130k a week and then putting him on the bench for most of his time before sending him to Scotland whilst no doubt still paying 90% of his wages.
So envious !

Is Eddie Howe still the manager down there?
What an amazing job he's done for them. Exciting, attractive football and a bucket load of young players, predominantly British ones, given the chance to play PL football.

Re: Bournemouth......
Surprised a Limited Co can loan money with no intention of it being repaid. If it’s from an individual that is their choice. From a company it is really a gift that is intentionally driving down profit figures to reduce tax.

Plenty of sides couldn't beat us, Accrington Stanley for one, but it doesn't mean they haven't done incredibly well. We're not so rubbish that we are the benchmark for how good a team is, i.e. if you can't beat Burnley you mustn't be very good.
Re: Bournemouth......
I remember all the Defoe stories. I'll try and find the link but what came out later was that £100k was the earnings if he played all the games and scored loads of goals
Re: Bournemouth......
It was more a point about how much they had spent and also how much the media seem to praise Howe and Bournemouth when the reality is they are big spenders and bankrolled just like other clubs in this league. I think Howe has done a very good job getting them in the league but his teams still concede a lot of goals and there is little between Burnley and them in last 4 or 5 years.ksrclaret wrote:It's okay to praise Bournemouth, you know.

Re: Bournemouth......
Clearly. You missed the point. Loaning 50 odd million to a football club isn’t really a loan it’s a gift. There is no way it’s going to get repaid.Tall Paul wrote:If a company makes a loan it doesn't affect its profits, unless it charges interest and then its profits are higher.

Re: Bournemouth......
Yes.....but their annual wage bill is significantly more than ours. Plus they pay larger transfer fees than us. I dont think they are making a profit without outside financial help. That's my point.aggi wrote:For clubs like Burnley and Bournemouth the crowds make barely any difference. It's about 4% of the total revenue. It's all about the TV money

They lost nearly £11m.
The outside help is currently a £52m interest free loan with no planned repayments. Their owners are also the reason they can afford to make a loss and have a £101m wage bill - nearly 50% up on the previous year.

Re: Bournemouth......
I don't know the details of Bournemouth's finances,but i'm happy to trust you,if they're making an £11m loss well raking in the PL millions,then they're in for a rude awakening should they take the plunge to the Championship.TVC15 wrote:They aren’t making a profit at all !

Now i'm sure people will say the owners can subsidise any shortfall,but as seen in Bolton's case it's a risky strategy to take.

Re: Bournemouth......
Can you take me through your maths, aggi?aggi wrote:Or a big pile of Premier League TV money.
Put it this way, last season we would have had 8 players earning £100k a week on top of our existing squad and we'd have still made a profit.
Is that 8 players in addition to the existing squad earning £100k/week?
I make that ......... a big enough sum I need to get out my calculator......
8 players each paid £100k/week for 50 weeks (let's make that bit of the calc a little easier) = £40 million.... + 13.8% NIC £5.5 million..... and add a little bit for other wage related costs, player insurance and the like....
I make that around £46 million.
Or, is your calc based on 8 of the existing squad being paid £100k/wk - rather than, let's say, £50k/wk? That would be £23 million extra.
Last question: are you referencing the 2017/18 season - where we've seen the accounts? or 2018/19 which has just gone?
Remember the total wage bill was £80+ million in 2017/18 - yes, it includes Sean Dyche and other non-playing staff. I don't think there was a "big bonus" for finishing 7th. I think the bigger part of any bonus pay is for staying up, and getting another year of Premier League tv money.
It will be interesting to see the 2018/19 accounts when they are published next March.
Re: Bournemouth......
Yep. I'm referencing 2017/18. It's in addition to our squad, not uplifting wages. We made a £45m profit in that year so I think my numbers pretty much rec with yours.Paul Waine wrote:Can you take me through your maths, aggi?

Re: Bournemouth......
It's true that they made an £11m loss but they have a lot of assets that could generate a lot of money so that probably doesn't quite reflect their long term position.TVC15 wrote:They aren’t making a profit at all !

Their big issue will be if they go down and the owners don't put more money in. Then they'll be in trouble.
Re: Bournemouth......
How about their wages going up by 50% reflecting their long term position ? The deal they have just given Wilson will increase it further.aggi wrote:It's true that they made an £11m loss but they have a lot of assets that could generate a lot of money so that probably doesn't quite reflect their long term position.

Player assets are all well and good but they have no impact at all on the trading position....unless you sell your best players - which then weakens your team etc.
They still owe significant monies for recent transfers - as per their large creditors numbers.
All I see is their financial position getting worse in the next few years.
I know that we rely on player sales too but we have consecutive years of significant profits and healthy reserves with no debt that can be called in. We sell our players to secure our future not save it as they may need to.

Re: Bournemouth......
The wage increase was nearer 40% (42%) than 50% (and for comparison ours was 33%). Whether it will increase materially this season we'll have to see. I suspect it will go up but not as steeply.TVC15 wrote:How about their wages going up by 50% reflecting their long term position ? The deal they have just given Wilson will increase it further.

The point about player assets is that the profit position can be drastically changed with a sale or two and Bournemouth have plenty of players who would sell for a lot of money. It's true that selling will weaken the team but realistically teams lower down the league are going to struggle not to sell their best players. Bournemouth were a bit unusual that they held onto their players without selling anyone, which obviously also links into the trade creditors/debtors.
Our 17/18 profits were very much bumped up by the £30m profit from the sales of Keane and Gray. In a similar way, Mings' transfer will add £20m to Bournemouth's profits. If Brooks or Ake or someone goes then it would add a lot more.
Personally, and I may of course be wrong, I think Bournemouth will be sustainable so long as they stay in the Premier League. The TV money plus a sale or two each year will keep them ticking over. If they go down then obviously it's a whole different ball game.

They have creditors of £122m included a big chunk to their owner.
Yes they might sell their players to fund any shortfalls but they also might break their leg in training tomorrow (as Wilson already has in the past). That’s a risk strategy to hope you can realise player assets to fund trading losses.
We are not in a position where we need to do that because our operating costs are kept to a sensible level and within our budgets and we have no debt to service or worry about. The fact that we “choose” to sell players is different - but they are not balancing our books. Our profits may have been bumped up by selling Gray and Keane but without those sales we would have still balanced our books.
