OK, so you've said several times without any real evidence that the club is more than capable of funding transfers of those players...and yet the club won the CL last year and only made £1.5million profit?

What is the difference in the wage bill now that the older players have gone and the new ones are in?

United would have made a loss if they hadn't been handed a tax credit, fek knows how they wangled that.

For you I cannot be bothered to look for it, but it was confirmed that Rooney signed the "original" contract offered to him which was 160k per week.

As for my "City offered RVP 300k a week" that was merely a dig at how idiotic people are to believe the papers.

RVP does not get 220k per week at Utd.

"OK, so you've said several times without any real evidence"

80% of our revenue covers our wage bill, hence if we made a profit last year this shows we can cope with the transfers

"What is the difference in the wage bill now that the older players have gone and the new ones are in?
"

The older players were on £100k+ a week, the new ones aren't

simple concepts

Your arguement is flawed, if you dont continue to pay top wages top players will go to city and utd and you wont win anything leading to a downturn in revenue

you hav eno youth system of note or any good young players coming though based on your results in the under 18s and 21 leagues

"What Roman receives back on his investment is irrelevant I am only concerned on what my clubs figures say, which this year happened to showed profit."

NOBODY is saying anything about what he "receives back" . I however am asking for some very basic numbers that give the truth about how Chelsky are operating as a business.

Again ...

You either don't know.
In which case say you don't, and we're done.

Or you do.
In which case just provide the numbers.


"I am only concerned on what my clubs figures say, which this year happened to showed profit"

Your first ANNUAL profit since God knows when ??
Chapeau.

Neither are people who knock out about 10 kids so they can rape the benefit system.

I'll make it even simpler for you...

what is your overall wage bill now compared to before the older players left?

"

Well that certainly explains why all those players joined us last year on low wages <op>

"and you wont win anything leading to a downturn in revenue"

Considering the only major revenue we earn from our success is from playing in the champions league group stage, not in the slightest.

"you hav eno youth system of note or any good young players coming though based on your results in the under 18s and 21 leagues "

This explains why we have won the fa youth cup 2 out of the last 3 years (in 2011 we made the semi finals) and sit top of our u18 league having dropped like 4 points? Whilst those have proven successful in the u18 have gone on loan rather than played in the u21 league hence why we have not been as good in the u21 league (despite the fact we're 3rd I believe) but then it wouldn't surprise me that you second guess based on zero facts

Ok. Why not for me, by the way?

"Your first ANNUAL profit since God knows when ??"

Our first annual profit since striving to make the club self sufficient. Considering the losses we made previously I'd say this was a good step in the right direction no?

Maybe RVP can get tax credits to top up his paltry wage.

Interesting. I wonder how this will effect Chelsea?

I would be surprised if they make a profit this season after going out of the CL group stages.

Boris doesn't know as he is a City fan I don't expect him to know the inns and outs of what happens at Utd.

I couldn't give a flying F### what happens at City

Boris ruined football

posted on 18/12/12

Fat Ron, yes but we also had massive losses compared to the previous season, when we were in the final, so you might not make a profit given yours was about £1.5m when you won it.
