JFK-1 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 They will be stronger than they were last season. They will likely get at least £15 million for Morelos if he goes, due to collect another 18 million from their Euro adventures, and their usual 20 plus million plus in season tickets for a total of 53 million or so. It's the kind of money the bulk of the league can only fantasise about. And it's exactly why no one can get anywhere near either of the OF anytime soon. They will both finish 20+ or even 30+ points ahead of third place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They bring in a lot but have been overspending. Cv19 will result in them losing out on massive amounts of match day income (Euro nights are a massive bonus to them). If they are not adjusting their player budget it would be surprising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I think everyone has to stop pretending they're in financial difficulty or are going to be. It's been the fantasy go to of the Celtic minded since they returned to the SPL and it's simply not going to happen. They have directors/backers with deep pockets who will prop them up if required for as long as required. And let's face it. They are capable of generating vast amounts of income in the tens of millions. What is going to happen now is that the bulk of the rest of the league are going to be having financial issues.

All their loans from Shareholders had been converted to shares in two or three share issues in the Autumn. The RIFC accounts indicated a funding shortfall of £10m for the rest of the season, of which £5m had already been pledged by Dave King leaving £5m to be funded. The TRFC accounts, issued six weeks later, gave the shortfall as £6m. It is not clear if that was in addition to the £5m already pledged, or whether the £5m covered the bulk of the £6m. What we do know is that, between the two sets of accounts, TRFC successfully progressed from the group to the knockout stages of the EL, so to my mind, the funding requirement should have been reduced somewhat. Not long after Douglas Park took over from King, he was asked about the deficit. He advised that it had been fully funded. I assume that "loyal" shareholders have again filled the gap. We also know that they had loan facilities of £3m with Close. We don't know if that has gone up or down since the accounts were published. Personally, I think that they were in better shape than many observers suggested, thanks to their EL run (probably un-budgeted). They are not yet on an even keel, far from it, as they have ongoing transfer payments from previous years and new transfer liabilities for the likes of Kent and Helander. Like all clubs who went down the deferred wages route, they will have to be paid at some point. However, their ST numbers are very good and they have started a loyalty scheme called "My Gers" that is bringing in more cash. I'm afraid that rumours of their imminent demise are most likely somewhat exaggerated. Edited July 28, 2020 by Footballfirst Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with all clubs - the longer the lockout continues the more clubs lose out. Any Europa League 2020-2021 activities this side of Christmas are going to be loss making.

The have even asked their players with hospitality boxes not to request refunds due to not being able to use the facility. They’ve done the same with corporate hospitality boxes as well. No deal for this season or money off, just pressure and guilt trip not to ask the club for a refund on the 5 home games missed. Every club, even the biggest clubs are gonna struggle while lockdown continues. We are very lucky that we had the correct plan of action from the start and haven’t been racking up deferral debts. If fans aren’t allowed back in, in 2020 then we may be seeing a lot of 15 point deductions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, look beyond the headlines. The £10M loss was a projected predicted loss through till the end of the year projecting loss of revenue as a result of COVID-19. Its partially to declare on projected losses for tax purposes. Since then, the club has recovered £6.2M, from various sources, so the current projected loss as a result of COVID-19 is sitting at £3.8M through till the end of the year. If fans / corporate are back in before the end of the year then the losses will be even less. There is an impact, every club is impacted but were far from desperate.

According to your owner. So you were going to sell Cosgrove to free up a bit of cash flow and bring in a replacement international striker? Now Cosgrove is injures though, so you’ll just be bringing in the international striker anyway? Is that correct?

The £10M loss was a projected predicted loss through till the end of the year projecting loss of revenue as a result of COVID-19. Its partially to declare on projected losses for tax purposes. Since then, the club has recovered £6.2M, from various sources, so the current projected loss as a result of COVID-19 is sitting at £3.8M through till the end of the year. If fans / corporate are back in before the end of the year then the losses will be even less. There is an impact, every club is impacted but were far from desperate.
