And also for letting JE shape things on the pitch with RA and Dav off the pitch with others doing the Community involvement credit where its due the whole club is on the up and others are looking in and some are looking over their shoulders

Naturally where else would such news appear first. It is a large loss and I'm not entirely sure how it was managed but I've not gone through all the thread yet.

| Wouldn't the loss be relatively large due to the season ticket money being lost to the old regime?

| I'm sure we didn't receive hardly any season ticket money for that period, as he honoured those previously bought before he came in. he also didnt get much sponsorship money either, during this time he also payed off 600k the old club owed whilst making improvements to the ground (did not include the roof) inc improvement to bars, asthetics, tidy it up. Also paying for rent of the ground which is a large sum too apparently
I'd say the majority of new business lose money in the first few years with start up costs etc.
Obviously we don't want to continue to do this for a fair few years but I'm sure A Glover knew what he was getting himself in for.

| It is a large loss but I would put this down to it been the first year of new ownership. Season tickets allready sold (about 300?) would account for some of this. Still - when you have an interest free loan of 450K from WY Windows it's very generous from Mr Glover and a sign that he his prepared to invest.

Season tickets & shirts, plus all other merchandise bought for xmas etc, was lost. Sponsorship had been paid to the old company along with two sky payments and the millenium magic payment. Throw in major investment in the gym & changing rooms, new shops etc as well as tidying up the rest of the ground then its not surprising that money was lost. Next years figures are the acid test.
