An average attendance of 10,000. We usually double that on a bad day.
There is absolutely no way they are adhering to FFP. They're essentially cheating - I hope it all goes tits up for them for that reason.
SSN saying they have had a £5m bid rejected from B'ham for one of their players, how can they afford this, where is the money coming from, are they adhering to FFP or are they gambling to reach the prem this season??!
To be fair to them, it's entirely possible that they're not going to ever be in a better position to push for Premier League Football. It's now or never. It is a huge gamble, but one I can actually sympathise with them for taking.
If this is true - then what's our excuse for not reinvesting in the squad, seeing as we sold key players for more than £10m last summer too. Additionally, we have more than twice their attendances.
IIRC Bournemouth were losing £15m a year a couple of years ago, which was slightly more than we were at that time. None of it makes sense, they're either cheating or simply a better run club than us - I doubt it's the latter.
Can't afford not being promoted but yet are the best run? Those statements fly in the face of each other.They can't afford the gamble of not being promoted like we did last season. They are the best run football club in the Championship and don't make mistakes like Kemy.
