Financial Results

[Nicko58]

A summary of the club's end of year financial results have been announced here.

A loss of £9.1m.

[Bruce Rioja]

Well, it's a huge step in the right direction year on year, but it now moves the overall debt to £172.9million. :gulp:

[Prufrock]

Pah, mere pocket change.

Don't we still miss FFP then, albeit by a lot less? Eddie is limited to what, £6m?

[Bruce Rioja]

Dunno, mate. However, I imagine there'll be ways around it if he wanted to put even more in.

Lennon in this morning's pre-Blackpool presser: "I'm not expecting us to have a great deal of money so we are looking at the Bosman market and generating funds through sales."

Commence out-door speculation.

oh alright then. Given NLs views wrt needing more robust players and who we actually have in contract, likely to be sellable/ desirable, I suggest a Mavies

[Gary the Enfield]

I think our most saleable asset at the minute is Lennon......

However in the BN it says he has a bigger budget now than he did at Celtic in the Champions League?!

[jonnycooper]

Possibly true!! But we would be in champs league if we played in scottyland

[Enoch]

I'm fairly confident Celtic's wage bill is higher than ours at the moment.

[Worthy4England]

I'm fairly confident Celtic's wage bill is higher than ours at the moment.

Yes it is.

Celtic 2013 - £40.7m; Bolton 2013 - £37.4m (down from £55.3m the year before)

Celtic 2014 - £37.7m; Bolton 2014 - £28.4m (derived from the Club statement saying we had reduced the wage bill by £9m)

[Worthy4England]

As an aside, when you look at Companies House website for Burnden Leisure Ltd, it shows the latest accounts filing as "Next Accounts Due 31/03/2015: OVERDUE"

Listening to McGinlay coming back from todays game v Norwich he said that there was an announcement due in the next week or 2 about a financial investment into the club. He wouldn't give any further details.

@MarcIles: Strong, if unconfirmed, rumours of talks with Irish and Israeli investors at #bwfc this week. Interesting.

Irish and Israeli?? that's an odd combination!

Do you really think so? Peas from the same pod if you ask me.

[Armchair Wanderer]

It could be talks with two different groups of investors!?

[LeverEnd]

It is. He clarified this in a later tweet, whilst also saying he was sceptical of the whole thing for reasons he would later reveal. Exciting? Not really!

[Worthy4England]

The accounts suggested there were some talks "at an advanced stage". It didn't read like takeover though, rather "additional funding streams"
