It's not permanent In the event of a reduction in any year due to the failure to participate in the Champions League for two or more consecutive seasons, the payments revert back to the original terms upon the men’s first team participating again in the Champions League. Page 39...

Unfortunately it's 30%; at the moment we get around £79m a year (£78,813m in 2019, £79.015m in 2018) so looking at approximately £23.5m reduction. Doom scenario, but provisions contained for 50% reduction, plus option then kicks in for Adidas to terminate giving one years notice. Think It'd...

Wrote this in another thread but worth mentioning again that whilst we have cash in bank we also have owed an absolute shedload to other clubs over last couple transfer windows: Disclaimer that not an accountant so might be schooled here, but looks like it's because we're paying for the...

I think the mental aspect of scoring a goal to take the lead and how it affects game management thereafter can be underestimated. Go a goal down and it's recoverable, go two down and you're in big trouble, and so often conceding is going to result in an element of caution/reservedness occurring...

Appreciate the reply, and this isn't meant to be antagonistic: So I get that it's offset by our operational incomes, and that Adidas paid us £79,015m, and that some of sponsorship money is possibly recorded as deferred income in the trade receivables (equally that could be other obligations to...

Disclaimer that not an accountant so might be schooled here, but looks like it's because we're paying for the previous windows. We took a shot at it in terms of massive investment and missed. We're rich enough in that we can recover but think it's questionable that we can just write it off and...

Not sure on Di Marzio this summer, but personally I'd imagine all journalists (not that they would admit it) publish misinformation from time to time in exchange for exclusives; Agent: "I need you to put out a story on player X moving to Man Utd." Journo: "wow that's huge, is he?" Agent: "Nah...

Might be well off and he stays but had considered if this was Dybala pushing for the move more than led on. "I'm happy where I am, what are you going to offer to persuade me?" is a stronger negotiating stance than "I'm desperate to get out of there" and saying he wants to stay at Juventus helps...
