ZacNaloen I can't believe you are actually accusing Madjeski of taking money from RFC and putting it into his other businesses.
No amount of clever accounting could account for that sort of shortfall
The simple truth is that the club just doesn't make very much money and so will always be close to the line when it comes to balancing the budget.

Royal Lady Wycombe - I'd have to say, knowing a number of Accountants, that you're not a very good one if you are not aware of "creative accounting" in which you can move money around in order to pay less tax etc.
None of it is illegal either.

The thing is, if we sell so many players yet we STILL have a shortfall, we're either TERRIBLY run or there's no smoke without fire as the accounts go. You don't see other clubs selling over £20 million of players since going down, bringing next to nobody in and still supposedly struggling financially. Our negotiated salaries, sponsors etc must be absolutely atrocious (Madejski's fault) or the money's coming out somewhere.

Royal Lady So, how much worse off would we be this season if we hadn't sold Sig?
Well, despite what others may say/wish to believe, I still think that the football club aided the hotel expansion in some way - maybe I am wrong - but I just don't understand why, particularly this season, we were said to have a £4 million shortfall, then despite selling Sig for £7 million, not accounting for any other sales at start of season/savings in wages - we're still told there is no money.

ZacNaloen We spent everything we had.

Wycombe RoyalRoyal Lady I thought for the past couple of years we've been in debt? How else do you account for the figures bandied about by the club about how we have to cut our cloth, season upon season?
This season alone, we've had £7 million for gylfi, plus a small bit of transfer fees, plus saved wages on those players and we've spent, what, £100k? Yet we can't afford any more players? Surely, we didn't actually PLAN to sell Gylfi at the beginning of this season and had already allocated the money on the debts we have incurred?
That is the result of relegation. Revenues fall far quicker than costs due to the length of contracts. It is how you manage that mismatch and RFC did it very well. They attempted to hold on to their better players for one season after relegation in an attempt to bounce straight back and came very close. Then they had to start getting rid of them all.
We could always have taken the Sheffield Utd approach and kept the higher earners for longer and made even bigger losses.
I'm beginning to realise that you just don't understand finances at all and that maybe you just shouldn't bother either. Have a nice afternoon.

If that's true, which I doubt, we spunked it away on Stephen Hunt's wages of £25k a week, shit negotiation, Madejski's fault.

Hammonds fault, Madjeski doesn't negotiate anything football related.

ZacNaloen Business background means nothing when you take into account that Madjeski hasn't a clue who's worth what in football.
