Re: Burnley FC Accounts 2022/23
There is a job to do on the field, the result of that will see us going in one of two directions in the summer.
Ideally we stay up, have a plan to move on some players and strengthen a few key positions without taking punts.
Having had two very chaotic summers it would be good to have a settled more measured approach, but think that'll only be the case if the decisions are in our hands, relegation probably negates that option.
Get behind the lads tonight, they need us more than ever in these final few weeks.

Re: Burnley FC Accounts 2022/23
The published accounts sort of confirms two points for me:
- That wages etc are obviously weighted with significant rises/reductions on promotion/relegation and are nowhere near as low as a few posters on here were suggesting that they'd be.
- That the club absolutely pushed the boat to get back up at the first time of asking.
Two more myths we can put to bed.
I'm sure there's some contingency and risk mitigation factored in with the contracts and the fact that our signings are young players (should retain a significant % of their transfer value, even at the absolute worst) but we're probably not in a position where we would ever want to spend a significant period outside of the top flight again.

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 owner.

I think the point was that many clubs in the PL and championship are in the same boat with significant debt and either already in the championship after being relegated or at the risk of being relegated.
We at least knew Garlick, John B and Barry Kilby would never have seen us go completely tits up. Foreign owners are an unknown quantity. I presume you're trying to go down the xenophobic route with your comment which is slightly pathetic and disingenuous

Leicester just announced almost £100m in losses for last season. Some going considering they were in the PL. You’d imagine they lost a fair chunk this season too and as it stands there’s no guarantee they’ll make it back to the PL at the first time of asking.
Brighton are sadly an outlier in this day and age amongst the lesser PL clubs.

Re: Administration?
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 aware certain uncertainties which could cause doubt on the group’s ability to continue as a going concern if they were to arise and remain unremedied.
The group prepares forecasts which take into consideration various scenarios, including the risk of the club being relegated from the Premier League. In the event of relegation, the group as with all such clubs will incur a significant reduction in turnover
as Premier League broadcasting revenue is replaced with parachute payments. The group will be required to take steps to reduce costs and borrowings to a level more sustainable for a Championship club. In this scenario the group would expect significant reduction in wages and salaries, which will be
largely achieved by contractual means existing in player and employee contracts and player transfers.
The group has also forecast a net inflow of cash from player trading, as is common for many clubs relegated from the Premier League. In such a case, to support the group’s obligations, the directors will consider and utilise financing options available, including but not limited to, player receivable financing. In the event that the group's financial performance varies or is less than that modelled, the directors are satisfied that sufficient funds can be generated or otherwise obtained by the Group, if
this was absolutely necessary. The current football transfer market remains strong, and the group believes that future potential player trading consistent with forecasts is reasonably achievable. The underlying models contain key judgments about future player trading which are subject to a significant degree of uncertainty, along with other variables. If player trading results were to be materially less than forecasts, and the operating budget modeled otherwise remained unchanged, the resulting conditions if unresolved
would indicate a material uncertainty which may cast doubt about the group’s ability to continue as a
going concern if unresolved and therefore that it may be unable to realise its assets and discharge its
liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include the adjustments
that would be necessary should the going concern basis of preparation no longer be appropriate.
The directors have considered the financial stability of the group for the next 12 months from the date
of signing these financial statements. They have assessed financial performance and are satisfied
that it will have sufficient resources available to be able to meet its obligations as they become due
and therefore remain confident it will continue to be a going concern
Basically the owners don't have deep enough pockets to keep us afloat if we don't manage to sell off players for a decent amount of money. But for that to happen we'd have to take some significant hits in the transfer market

Anyone still wondering what happened to that £88m they had in September last year? or why there is mention of shares being transferred from Calder Vale Holdings in October but nothing about the debt Calder Valle Holdings owes to the club (which grew by £9.3m last year, presumably to contribute to that final stage payment, which would not have had to be paid if promotion had not been achieved) - of course Calder Vale Holdings still hasn't presented accounts (two sets are long overdue) - same with Kettering Capital.aggi wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2024 10:33 pmThis is the wording from the accounts.

Re: Administration?
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 would be reasonable to expect reduction in outgoings by a lower wage bill, including relegation clauses which are already in place. We would also expect player sales to contribute to cash flow but admit that the transfer market cannot be predicted, even though it is healthy now.
If (a very big IF) the transfer market collapsed and BFC did not make the predicted sales, the club would face a risk but the owners are confident they would still be able to secure adequate funding (In the event that the group's financial performance varies or is less than that modelled, the directors are satisfied that sufficient funds can be generated or otherwise obtained by the Group, if this was absolutely necessary.)
Give this to a ******* reporter and he’ll spin it into what he has tweeted.
Hope this helps.

Re: Administration?
Reads to me that short term we are fine, including relegation, but we are heavily reliant on PL income every other year at least. It is a risky game and you have to hope we're promoted next season should the worse happen. Two seasons in the Championship would be incredibly costly.

Gamble 4 or 5 million on a Koleosho or Odobert in the hope after a season or two in the Premier League they'd be worth 10 times what we paid for them.

Re: Administration?
Basically, “the group” will give them money if necessary. I think the group has more cash than we realise.

Anyone who's ever read a set of accounts for any company will know it's nothing to alarm.
No auditors or accountants can predict the future so always have these sort of caveats in there

But that wasn't in anyway putting the club at risk. They did very well for usFeedTheArf wrote: ↑Tue Apr 02, 2024 11:03 pmI don’t like these owners, I couldn’t care less where they come from, but don’t be fooled by Garlick and John B either. They fattened the pig as best they could then filled their pockets. By the sound of it, Barry couldn’t stop it as his shares were tied into an arrangement with either Garlick or John B.

Re: Administration?
Will it? It doesn't even say that,
What is says is that they believe they have ways which they believe will enable them to deal with it, much like they did last time - which in short saw the club sell all the player assets it could and refinance it's loans 3 times in 14 months as well as take advances on future revenues.

Re: Burnley FC Accounts 2022/23
How was it not putting the club at risk? They allowed ALK to use the clubs own funds to buy it. The ‘rainy day’ fund gone and for what? Perfectly legal, morally corrupt.
They didn’t do well for us. They should just thank their lucky stars they had the foresight/luck to hire Sean Dyche. He was the magic that kept us in the Prem for so long on relative peanuts.
