There goes my joke about 2 imaginary oversized City fans, before I even knew who they were. Ellie and Mike are doing a great job.

Mr Popodopolous Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Perhaps I misheard but did Kieran say our wage budget was £35m?? In 2020-21 it was, was £30m for the collective in 2021-22, ie Club, plus AGL consolidated into Bristol City Holdings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CodeRed Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 No news revealed on SOTC, the club do excell at one thing though which is preventing any news leaking out, hell even Trump leaked the plans to attack Iran and before ministers have left a cabinet meeting in No 10 they're texting journalists . Yet BCFC have kept things tighter than a ducks arse. Chapeaux! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Kieran does a lot of radio rounds, think he may have accidentally mixed up 2020-21 and 2021-22. Either way the Holdings wage bill for that season was £30m and the club in isolation was somewhere between £23-24m. We may have been in or near top 10 that year but we were still in fiscal retrenchment. Edited November 6, 2023 by Mr Popodopolous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenred Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) A pretty damning verdict from Kieran there - probably the finest mind on football finance in the UK, if not further afield.

I wasn’t listening live, but you are spot on….Holding Ltd was only £30m, let alone “playing squad wages”, which is much lower. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There again a £35m player wage bill does look like a top 10 budget so maybe not. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Team Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 As I’ve said on another thread: credit where it’s due, Hadwin did well on Sound of the City tonight, called out both sides and offered up criticism and analysis of the Lansdowns. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed Fevs. I’ve been critical of Radio Bristol of late, particularly since GT left but fair play to Hadwin, he did well tonight, more of the same Ed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
