Alan Pace - Self made man
Interesting one on the TNT coverage earlier with Matt Smith from TNT saying to Pace that he’s a self made man and it’s his money in the club when talking about this season.
Think the interviewer needed to do a tad more research

Of course to date there are literally hundreds of people that have put more of their money into the club as capital to be employed than the whole ALK.VSL ownership group combined. A simple perusal of Companies House at the filings of Burnley Football and Athletic Club Limited and Burnley FC Holdings Limited provides the evidence of this
ALK/VSL do hold a record though (and this may well go across the whole English game, and probably much further) no owner has ever borrowed as much as they have from a Football Club.

Re: Alan Pace - Self made man
That last detail is concerning. But I'm not surprised at this blatantly false puffing up. He's a financier from Wall Street. That type are an expert at being self-made with other people's money, and turning other peoples' money into their money when convenient, and their losses into others'.Chester Perry wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2024 1:25 amIt is interesting just how deeply and widely this notion is held.

Curious also at how quiet this thread is, and the apparent little interest people have in some rather disingenous self-publicity by the club's chairman. Waiting to hear how this is actually Mike Garlick's fault.

Re: Alan Pace - Self made man
Typically self made would indicate that they have created wealth themselves rather than inherited or won it through the lottery.
Given that he worked a number of senior roles in some of the world’s biggest financial institutions at the time- I believe that term would be accurate.
Don’t confuse how he bought the club as an indication of his wealth. Debt is leverage to protect wealth and reduce taxes typically.
Likes of Apple use debt rather than their cash reserves as an example.

Another load of rubbish he has pedalled, there is absolutely no way that you would risk getting to the third year after which parachute payments run low/end. No matter the state of the squad a club with our financial muscle should 100% be going up first season.
Take parachutes away and file us next to Rovers, with the exception we don’t have owners with bottomless pockets.

there are many ways in which to view the fiscal management under Mike Garlick (I note your derisory spelling, seemingly intend to arouse a suspicion as to his character.South West Claret. wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 11:34 amAh Mr Garlic that’s the fella who denied Sean Dyche the funds to continue Burnley’s remarkable membership of the PL isn’t he?
Resulting in the club’s present position.
one would be to note that he never overextended the financial liabilities at the club, even while running a cost of football at the club at over 90% of revenue (that is wages plus amortisation) something that UEFA and the Premier League from next season would find in breach of PSR. Those rules are only catching up with the situation in football were revenues are precarious for most, hence all the arguments we see about distributions. It could be said that Garlick/the club was already stretching itself to the sustainable limits. Ours appears to be the only club in English football that got through the Covid crisis with it's own monies (no loans or share issues) there were only small losses posted in that period and most of those can be attributed to interest paid by the club resulting from the new owners debt with MSD.
Yes Mike Garlick (and everyone who has sold their shares) has done very well from the sale of the club (at this time I can think of no other owner who has made a greater multiple of his investment from a sale of a club, the Glazers will eventually when they sell up completely, though that will be over a much longer time frame. Under his tenure the club became sustainable, rid itself of debt and was developing its infrastructure from its own monies (much of what has been spent under the new ownership on infrastructure was planned and provided for with set aside monies under Garlick's tenure.
I still maintain that the summer of 2020 appeared all set for a significant squad refresh (when you look at the accounts -cash in hand, amortisation drop and level of transfer debt - and combine it with the number of players at the end of their contracts before Covid rewrote the plan. There would have been both cash for incomings and space in the wage bill for significant additions, a situation that was not apparent before, mainly as a result of the lack of significant sales in the previous two years. The reasons for that circumstance are not in the public domain, so we work with what is.
Did Mike Garlick know about the MSD loan? almost certainly, though it appears the others didn't until very late in the day.
Did Mike Garlick know about the immediate £23m loan from the club to make the down payment on the takeover? again almost certainly, though we were all led to believe that ALK/VSL were going to quickly flip some holding in their group to cover those and the remaining monies to complete the takeover - that turned out to be a much longer process than almost everyone thought it would be
Did the outflow of cash from the club under the new owners impact our capabilities in the transfer market? the numbers are significant, around £40m in the first year of ownership and a possibly greater number in the second. Signings that were made were greatly aided by the transfer debt liability being erased by Garlick
Was the manager confident with the transfer policy under the new ownership? There is plenty to suggest that Mike Garlick brought players into the club that Dyche didn't believe in, though there was an evident need for numbers when they occurred and from an accounting and economic circumstances standpoint limited funds available. There is also a strong suspicion that signings under ALK/VSL were not all the preferred options of Sean Dyche.
so you stick with your simple beliefs if you choose, but there is much in life that is far more complicated and the financial management of the club under Mike Garlick's final years is just another such example.

Re: Alan Pace - Self made man
Burnley FC must be very highly geared (debt to equity ratio). High gearing is fine when debt can be fairly comfortably serviced thanks either to low interest rates or strong predictable revenues. Football in general does not provide predictable revenues. As a result Burnley's buying spree in the summer was, one assumes, to have the ability to sell some of these 'promising players' at a profit to service and pay down debt - especially if the club is relegated. The result of this policy has been to break up the winning spirit in last year's team and to take us to our current position.

Re: Alan Pace - Self made man
Do you really believe that? It's spin to keep expectations manageable, to give ALK and Kompany some breathing space, and to encourage underdog mentality.
ALK bought a Premier League club. The business model relies on the investment and publicity only the Premier League can provide.
There's no way someone like Vincent Kompany stays in the Championship for three or four years, absolutely no way whatsoever.
I've never believed the plan from day dot. Mission To Burnley shows that getting back to the Premier League as soon as possible is/was hugely important. Employing Kompany confirms it.

An interesting (full page) article. Another American involved in running a Premier League club. Lot's of Heck's objectives for Aston Villa could just as easily be Alan Pace's and ALK's objectives for Burnley.

It is clumsily constructed on review but the thing I was talking about not being in the public domain was the reason for no significant player sales in the prior two seasons, rumours are that Dyche vetoed sales because the club could/would not get him the players he wanted.ClaretPete001 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 6:14 pmChester - if you are going to argue the 'what is' then how do you justify your view that Covid was the factor that led Mike Garlick to abandon the plan to refresh the squad and instead use the cash to fund a leveraged buy out and make himself a pile of cash?
