Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
I guess this is based on the BBC article which concentrates on Man City taking over from Man U as the "most valuable" Prem Club
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48145285
I'll have a look for the full report to see the detail of how they've evaluated this.

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
Burnley valued at £398m. That seems extraordinary.

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
The fact that Leicester are worth less than half of what they were last season (while getting ready to open their new £100m training ground) raises some questions as to the suitability of the methodology

It's 10 years ago today since we went into our game with Bristol City to secure our place in the 2009 play offs. And now we're worth £398m. What a ride!

It’s very commendable, but we shouldn’t make a virtue out of a necessity.

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
Took a bit of tracking down but the underlying (Univ of L'pool) report is at https://news.liverpool.ac.uk/2019/05/03 ... able-club/
The methodology is outlined near the top of the article, then a bit about each club.

Money does the talking. We finished 7th in both the financial and the league tables.

Agreed, if 'poor' could be used! However, when they eventually move on, the income will be huge.

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
I think it's fairly open information that shares were £200 each (at least that's what I paid for my substantial holding in the club of one share). I think you have to buy 10 shares now at a cost of £2k if you want to buy any. Again though, I may be wrong with this, too, and CT may have better and more up to date info.Tall Paul wrote:The shares aren't traded on the open market, where do you get your £200 valuation from?

Hi Goddy, when did you buy your share(s)?
The £398 million valuation is derived applying the same valuation formula for every club - and assumes, amongst other things, that Premier League status is retained - and, I don't think it means, just retained for one season....
With Jim Ratcliffe launching the Ineos Cycling team - previously Sky Cycling - it's also been reported, again, that Jim Ratcliffe offered £2 billion to acquire Chelsea last year, But, even though that figure is a few hundred million above Chelsea's valuation, according to L'pool Uni research, Abromovich is not selling.
Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
How long ago was that though? I'm sure it was before we've been making all these profits.Goddy wrote:I think it's fairly open information that shares were £200 each (at least that's what I paid for my substantial holding in the club of one share).

I don't think they're available at £200 each now.

I totally get it's only worth what someone is prepared to pay but I was just giving a view on how different the (rough) valuation of the club was/is.
Anyhow, I'm not selling!

Not sure, Paul (x 2), if you can still buy them. As I say CT will almost certainly know, if not, ring the club up and ask.Tall Paul wrote:How long ago was that though? I'm sure it was before we've been making all these profits.

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
Hi Chester - I think you have to write to the Company Secretary if you want to sell your shares. Don't know if the club then buy them back or broker a deal and offer them. As I say, it's not something I'm looking to do (as if I'm some big shot with mi single share)Chester Perry wrote:don't you have to have permission to sell shares in Burnley?

my understanding was the new owner in a share transfer had to be approved by the Directors

I think you're right, Chester, which is why I think you have to write to the club if you were/are considering selling or transfer your share(s)Chester Perry wrote:

I believe the information is correct, however, none on the market. The price was when there was a share allocation. Now, there is no need!
Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
The £200 is the 'face value'. The value of a share with voting rights (ours have no rights, as the main shareholders ousted us) will match the value of the club (the big number)

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
Is that absolutely no voting right - or no worthwhile voting right given the miniscule percentage of shares held outside of those held outside of the few major shareholders and no way of building a significant holding without Director approvalIanMcL wrote:The £200 is the 'face value'.

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
I think we were knocked out of voting rights, Chester. They have value but really as souvenirs!

Re: Burnley most sensibly run club in the Premier League financially
I don't know about anyone else, but I got my single share 10 years ago due to Barry Kilby's Premier League Pledge.
That was where you received a free season ticket (you had to be a current holder of one of course).
I think there were two options to the deal...
1). Where you got the ticket completely free.
2). Where you contributed half towards the season ticket but also received a single share, valued at the time at £200.
