It’s late (early) and I’ve had a few but I’m so disillusioned with this pantomime of a club that I need to say it - there were a few things doing the rounds via NewsNow etc. about club revenues such as:

- kit sponsorship - say this was worth £1M per year but the club accepted £0.5M per year (schematic figures) in order to furnish a better deal for the club’s umbrella company and its sports retail business.
- Presumably, if catering, hospitality & corporate were treated the same way, the ‘umbrella company’ would benefit in a similar way
- Staging fees for concerts, does this go to the club or the actual owner (long term lease holder) of the stadium

To summarise, the owner may not have taken an actual penny out of the club but if the above is be accurate enough, he’ll have done better than OK via creative accounting etc. 😡😡😡
