tzijlstra   11 #4 Posted August 7, 2018 Chansiri arrived in 2014. Since 2015/2016 this is where the money has gone in transfer fees (Millions of Euros, source is Transfermarkt.com):  Forwards: Rhodes: 11.70 Forestieri: 4.12 Hooper: 3.90 Matias: 3.10 Lucas Joao: 2.78 Winnall: 0.58  Midfielders: McGugan: 0.43 Reach: 5.90 Abdi: 3.60 Pelupessy: 0.50  Defenders: Van Aken: 3.00 Wiggins: 1.00 Fox: 0.82  Total outgoing transfer fees: 41,560,000 Total incoming transfer fees: 3,320,000 (Hunt this year, May and Whiggins 15/16)  Deficit: 38,240,000 (EUROS!)  There are only three of those I'd consider bad purchases: Whiggins, straight up 740,000 loss. Abdi: 3.6 million Rhodes: 11.7 million  Problem is, Rhodes was a massive bad purchase, really didn't work out for us at all. If you take him out of the equation things look slightly better. BUT:  The FFP rules weren't broken on transfer fees, they were broken on wages.  Fletcher, Pudil, Westwood, Forestieri, Hooper, Rhodes, Reach, Abdi, Van Aken, Loovens, Boyd, Wallace, McGugan, Hunt, Fox and probably a handful of others I am forgetting about will all have been paid royally over 10K a week and several closer to 50K (Rhodes, Westwood, Hooper, Fletcher) that means we will have been hammering close to 20 million a year in wages.  As a result we have seen prices go up across the board, no real investment in the training and match facilities apart from a nice new scoreboard, no real talent coming through the academy and now a transfer embargo.  In other words, miss management.

Vasquez Rich   10 #6 Posted August 7, 2018 It's a gamble.  Overspend on players and wages in the hope you can gain promotion and gain all the cash that brings...  .. problem is, when 6 or 7 gamble big (as happened last year) and only 3 can go up, some are left in a pickle.

Even if they are only there for a year they are allowed a loss of £61m compared to the £39m of the other clubs over three years, so are able to have another go at it for a couple of years. Yes it,s a gamble and we failed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

The academy is starting to show sparks of life too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
staninoodle   175 #9 Posted August 7, 2018 A good post and whilst I largely agree you are a little off with the wages, no players at SWFC is on more than £35k. The academy is starting to show sparks of life too.  Fletcher gets 30K,the Blackburn (Bowyer)manager blurted it out in a radio interview that hed offered him 28K but wed trumped their offer by 2 grand a week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Robbie Loving   10 #10 Posted August 7, 2018 Fletcher gets 30K,the Blackburn (Bowyer)manager blurted it out in a radio interview that hed offered him 28K but wed trumped their offer by 2 grand a week  I think it was the 4 year contract that attracted Fletcher.  Well.... the rumours have been long ongoing that you were under a transfer embarago. Some claimed that the rumours were way off.  It's a poor situation to see and I don't blame Chansiri. He listens to the fans, his advisors and between them all some very bad decisions have been made. His intentions have clearly been good, however he doesn't know how to talk to people. Reading some of the comments he made last night, he just wants to push the blame everywhere else.  We will see what happens, but if you can get a fully fit team going, you'll still do well this year.

Yeah it was a pretty sobering forum,more or less what I expected,a virgin football owner mugged by a manager he trusted and believed in,next season could be interesting. Can see a change of ownership looming as a way around FFP and quite a few departures over next spring/summer,start with Van Aken for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Robbie Loving   10 #12 Posted August 7, 2018 Heard it was 3 yrs with an option....  You're probably right, just thought I had remembered seeing it was 4 years straight, but my memory is going haha.  Anyway, what's this about the 4xl shirts not fitting properly?
