Ask him the same questions again and I bet the ambitious has changed. I guess he is now hardened to the real world of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) For the people who still think it's an "Excuse" : Quote QPR facing multi-million-pound fine after breaking the EFL's financial fair play rules with £69.7m loss in 2013-14 QPR posted a £9.7million loss as they were promoted to the Premier League However, a £60m injection from club owners has now been included by the EFL The Championship club are now facing a fine which could be tens of millions A panel rejected QPR's claim that the 2012 financial fair play rules were unlawful Quote QPR's accounts showed a £60m income injection from the club owners, classed as an 'exceptional item' which was to write off loans. The Football League, since rebranded as the English Football League, is understood to have taken issue with that injection of cash and considered the real loss figure to be £69.7m. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-5012689/QPR-facing-huge-fine-breaking-EFL-rules.html Edited October 24, 2017 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or the social media team that actually send the tweets have decided they should see if the form continues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Heard a whisper that the club are quite pleased with an improvement in the clubs finances. The major concern at the club isn't if we don't go up this season the club are confident they can handle that. More of a problem is funding players purchases \ wages should we get back to the prem. It would seem there won't be significant cash available should we get promoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only part that's dubious is the impact of no promotion IMO. Nothing the club does IMO suggests we have significance funds held back by FFP. To be honest it wouldn't surprise if Dr Tony isn't here within the next 18 months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club pleased with improvement in finances - Yep, I’m sure they are and Wyness has pretty much stated that previously. This season - Confident they can handle non promotion. Well they might be able to handle it financially but the reduction in our budget resulting from lower loses under FFP would certainly have an impact on the club in terms of results on the pitch. If promoted - So the club are more concerned with the prospect of our revenue rocketing as a result of promotion than they are with the prospect of it decreasing further and greater restrictions of FFP? Sorry that bit just doesn’t stack up. I don’t for one minute think the Dr has hundreds of millions to plough into the side and rising market prices will make it harder for us. I just don’t buy that they are more concerned about not having money to spend if promoted than they are about the possibility of not being promoted. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But basically funds if promoted is going to be a big problem at the club - would be what i would take from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grasshopper Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 If and when we get promoted DrT will have to budget at least 10mill per player for a PL standard. (plus wages) So of the TV money plus DrT’s cash we would have to toy with 2x CB‘s 1x LB 1x DM 1/2x CM 1x LW 1x AM 1x CF 80+mill for a start (plus wages) and possibly a 1year payoff for SB and an increased salary for a new manager plus a possible buyout fee. I can only see a rising figure coming out of all that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasshopper Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 But lets get up first before DrT has to solve that nice problem PS. I personally think that DrT will revel in the chance to spend at PL level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny because i thought Dr T would throw millions at it if we got promoted. Then i was re-watching the game last night and the commentators where talking about Dr T and our spending this season, 3mill or something net. They went on to say that the Chinese government is making it really hard for Chinese business men to release money outside of China. Got me thinking, forget the money for buying clubs outside China, but even the money for bankrolling clubs when they want to is very difficult now by what they were saying.
