That shits hosed up. You hear about players not being paid for months often. I recently heard about it happening to Parma a few years back. They weren't paid for 7 months. So really even if you are a bit time player earning half a million euros if you've got a morgtage thats a few million then you are going to be hurting. Of course it never lasts long enough to be a real problem as most people nowadays can earn enough in one year to not be too hosed over if something happened. But in the early 90's before salaries started to really skyrocket that wouldn't have been a good situation to be in.

Iggy Pop Barker posted:it's not his fault but he's still a loving vulture taking money from the club and setting himself up to take loads when we've found buyers, stiffed everyone with a derisory CVA etc. He should have been banned from controlling clubs the second the full extent of Leeds' problems got out but, y'know, the FA are a shower of impotent and incompetent cunts. Football is dead You need to post those quotes from people saying how good it was all looking for them.

I thought this was never going to happen because if he bought the others then he has to buy Usamov's who could then pretty much jack his price up 100%? And if he didnt then Kroenke would be forced to sell the ones he bought. Or am I wrong.

^^^^ You mean Niue?wicka posted:All of their Formula 1 figures are grossly inflated, those are most assuredly not base salaries they have listed. Kimi's still getting paid by Ferrari. His contract with them was $50 million a year. Vettel is on a low salary but massive bonuses for doing stuff. Hamilton and Alonso's salary are probably a bit more confusing because whilst santander is conisdered most likely a promotional thing I think they actually pay their salary to be on the team. It is a lot of guesswork this stuff. Are figures quoted in the media pre/post tax and all that?

s0meb0dy0 posted:I don't see how that would work. As far as I know, it's an isolated incident from a player who gives his all on the field. Yeah it sucks, but I don't see how it's grounds for unilateral dismissal. Depends I guess on whether its been happening before and if theres stuff happening we don't hear about. From what I gathered he hasn't been that cancerous to his other team mates. Its all hearsay at the moment.

Crazy Ted posted:Arsenal got £100 million for 15 years when they opened the Emirates Stadium. That works out to about £6.7 million per year. The 2 million is what they pay the council for the rights to name the stadium. The Arsenal deal is what the sponsor pays similar to the 35 million Man City get from Etihad. Its a different scenario because the stadium is owned by the council rather than the club. The council could probably sell them to Etihad direct but I assume they are happy with the fact the Sheikh is pumping so much money into the area.

Modus Trollens posted:Great read. I would have thought their contracts would be like "12 million paid over 3 years with so and so for winning the league or for each game played" but the press just uses weekly wages because its easier to compare. They probably still get paid monthtly with appearance bonuses and other stuff coming into that or maybe paid quarterly or at the end of the year.

Whilst City had a huge loss based on buying ALL the players and wage increase surely for next year that should be down a whole lot? I can't see them buying many more players to be honest. Well not to the level of what they just did and the Champions league money is going to start kicking in. As well as the fact you'll probably start getting the bandwagon money coming in.

Mickolution posted:Wow. How far apart are the two teams based? Worst I've seen in that regard was 14 at a League of Ireland game a couple of years back. The away team were only from around an hour away. Gold Coast tend to have no fans as its a new club and run by guys who didn't do a very good job. Its also a couple thousand KM's from Melbourne In Sydney they like to use the Olympic Stadium as much as they can so its not a white elephant and this means having 10-20,000 people in a stadium that seats 85,000 and isn't generally in the right area anyway. That really annoys me as they do it for all sports.

TyChan posted:GD, I know we've asked you about this before, but how much of the attendance figures are due to disenchantment from Calciopoli and long-running problems regarding controlling the behaviors of ultras? I'm no expert but I was under the assumption that immediately after the Calciopoli poo poo a lot of supporters gave up their season tickets and stopped attending. No idea if its recovered but I believe that the average was much higher pre 2005.

belgend posted:Some newspapers over here publicized a list of the annual average wages of clubs in Belgium, and it surprises me how much of a difference there is not only with the big European clubs, but also with small clubs (albeit from big leagues). There are 2.Bundesliga teams with about double the wage salary the biggest paying club in Belgium. It's madness really Whats the average person earning the belgian league?

JunkDeluxe posted:Most of these players have 10-12 years to earn a lifetime of wages, so they should take whatever they can get. Players are incapable of getting a job after football? Just because you played sport professionally for 10 years doesnt mean you retire.

EvilHawk posted:Chelsea will be in real trouble if/when Abrahmovic leaves. We can see already that they're struggling to keep up with United and City, and teams like Tottenham are starting to catch up to them. Whilst they have a worldwide fanbase now, many of those have either come of age or starting following Chelsea when they have been successful - a few seasons outside the top 3 (or even 4) will see those fans lose interest. People thought he would leave when they won the CL. What happens if he sticks around for another 10 -15 years or when he sells he sells to some other billionaire sugar daddy.

Nate Silver did a thing on the distribution of fans across different sporting leagues. http://fivethirtyeight.com/datalab/the-distribution-of-fandom-in-pro-leagues/ I find some of it flawed when thinking about the premier league but it does make a good point that there is no middle class in football.
