And when they all reform, hopefully they will mostly be Part Time and charging no more than £9 admission price. And there should be just 40 new Clubs. Just what the beautiful game needs. Maybe it will push summer fitba' in to contention. Hope not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) I am interested to see how this pans out down in England with the massive wages they pay can see a few clubs go In to melt down. Edited March 14, 2020 by elvis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only hope through this is that banks go easy on these smaller businesses who are struggling to make ends meet. 9 minutes ago, elvis said: I am interested to see how this pans out down in England with the massive wages they pay can see a few clubs go In to melt down. Up here as well. We are in a relatively stable position in that we don't have the largest wage bill in the league and are already on a sound enough footing financially. Clubs like Hearts and the Dundee clubs who are already in the financial shitter and burning through wages with no incomes will surely be at risk.

Sweeper07 Posted March 14, 2020 Report Share Posted March 14, 2020 Stupid thread title - the corona virus kills a small percentage of people infected not clubs - clubs don't have immune systems, cannot catch the virus and they will still go on - Aye there will be some worries about finances, but many if not every business is in the same boat . . . clubs are not a special case !

I was sent one last night from Leyton Orient trying to get a tournament sorted with 62 fans from different clubs. If there is to be some sort of lock down it could be a great way to create a social element through the club support.

Even if its free would it not be more interesting beating Morton fans? Just wondering how you got an invite since it was sent out to fans of clubs, not customers.

antrin Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Barcabhoy (a poster on Celtic forums and TSF The Scottish Football Forum) produced the above table a while ago. It is a wee bit out of date now (December) and Motherwell, for instance, are more solid with some player sales made. Sevco just needs that £30m for Morelos and it'll be ok, too. Or a unicorn to lay them a golden egg...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barca knows his stuff. ps wrt sevco - King removed them from any place that demanded a reporting of accounts or freedom of info. And it has not got a line of credit from any bank. Plus King has been given the Cold Shoulder by the City of London. There have been Erratic statements about financial situations, in the Big Hoose. Lots of smoke and mirrors - though apparently there are now a couple of Asian investors with a spare £10m each to offer. These are certainly interesting times.

I think we'll have seen the last of the ridiculously inflated TV deals, too. Corona is going to be a huge watershed moment, for football and for society.
