That's the issue with what Radz, Orta did, they effectively tried to buy PL continued membership with a mortgage whose terms were just plain awful. Further to this if you liken some of the signings to bricks and mortar we actually bought unsellable prefabs or prohibitive cost leases.

My understanding unless I misread, is that the Red Bull investment is effective from beginning next Season so does not affect what has to be paid by 30th June.

Should add if we successfully meet our commitments by end of June, financial isses will start to look more positive.

Come on, he was born in Leeds and started at our academy as a kid alongside Lewie Coyle and Tyler Denton, are you telling me, you don't see a scenario where the Kop are singing "he's one of our own"

Of that, lot got to be, Sessegnon, Sarmiento, Lankshear and Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, massive opportunities for LIW to misspell their names all season long, if he cannot cope with Summerville, not a chance with those surnames.

Then selling Summerville for £20m will free up £80m over 4 years in transfer fees and wages.
—————————————————————

Just explain that please, not quite understanding
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Selling Summerville will show in the accounts as 100% profit because he was signed for next to nothing and that value will have depreciated to nil by now anyway. So that puts us at + £20m (assuming we are at breakeven before sale)

We then spend £10m on a player and give him a £50k/wk contract over 4 years, £2.5m/yr. That means that we have committed £20m on a signing but that cost is spread over the 4 years of the contract. So the transfer fee amortises at a rate of £2.5m/year and obviously the wages cost £2.5m/yr too. So a total of £5m/yr.

This could then be done with 3 other players.

Or we could spend £50m on one player and give him £150k/wk. Would add up to a total of £80m spread over 4 years. £12.5m/yr fee and £7.5m/yr contract.

The risk is that we will have to find another £20m each year after this just to cover the outgoing for PnS. But obviously promotion one solution to that.

I think Parraag did say the Adams and Sinisterra sales will be deducted from the £73million we need to cough up in June so with that in mind and the realistic sale of Summerville and Gnonto bringing in I think £50 million that gives the club by my reckoning a £20 million profit to add to the income we are allowed to spend from the Red Bull sponsorship which I've read as being £200 million over 3 years of which £60 million has been allocated for this first year so we appear to be in a very strong position to recruit some very high quality Championship players.

Three players I'd love to see but not sure if they won't be snapped up by EPL clubs are the Blackburn Centre forward, Chair from QPR and Whitaker from Plymouth but we'll just have to see what develops on that side of things but overall I feel as many others on here do too now that Sunday's disappointment is almost a thing of the past and positive times are now afoot at Leeds United for next season and beyond.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The outstanding transfer fees have no bearing on PnS. Completely separate issue that I would be shocked if it actually was an issue at all. Will have been accounted for by the 49ers when they bought the club and planned for with their cash flow.
