Agreed - that poor fella from the Goonies being compared to CooperA bit harsh, perhaos?

3 years of anything like £170k says all you need to about them…!Why would he let them terminate the contract?
Your Mrs’ boots are mintWhen the Albion were promoted the club owed TB £190m and this had increased to £406m by 2022, so that’s £216m from Sir Tony since reaching the PL, of which about £50m is infrastructure spend on property.
So £166m on players - covered by Moises and Cucu alone - let alone the rest (yes wages etc too of course but still…)When the Albion were promoted the club owed TB £190m and this had increased to £406m by 2022, so that’s £216m from Sir Tony since reaching the PL, of which about £50m is infrastructure spend on property.
Thank you.When the Albion were promoted the club owed TB £190m and this had increased to £406m by 2022, so that’s £216m from Sir Tony since reaching the PL, of which about £50m is infrastructure spend on property.
I saw him play (and score) for Luzern in a 2-1 defeat at FC Zurich back in March. He was the best player on the park for 70 mins or so but faded which enabled FCZ to nick the win. I think he’s still playing regularly for them this season too.3 years of anything like £170k says all you need to about them…!
The lad has flourished since though…

Stats seem good there tbf but it is the Swiss league…I saw him play (and score) for Luzern in a 2-1 defeat at FC Zurich back in March. He was the best player on the park for 70 mins or so but faded which enabled FCZ to nick the win. I think he’s still playing regularly for them this season too.
Most impressive at least cringy thing I’ve seen that man do. Read into that what you will…
Yes, the clubs assets are essentially hisIs the phrase ‘payable on demand’ at all significant? Does that essentially mean TB can decide to take as much or as little back each year?
They do but it certainly is. Wasn’t a great standard tbhStats seem good there tbf but it is the Swiss league…
I think what will really hurt is all the plaudits we’ve had in recent years about our ownership/transfer business and club model. Must drive them nuts that were constantly in the mainstream press being praised for the brilliance of our ownership and football, yet they only pop up when “in crisis”Especially having had the upper hand over us for something in region of 25 years.
Seeing us disrupting the big 6 and qualifying for Europe, all whilst turning a large profit to enable continued investment must be horrendous, especially as the best-case scenario for them is to continue treading water in the lower half of the PL doing just enough to survive year after year.
Thanks El Pres.As requested, here is a comparison of the relative finances of both the Albion and Palace per the accounts (so does not show sales of Cucurella, Caicedo et) up to 30 June 2022.
Income is almost identical, Palace £740m and Albion £736m
View attachment 173045
Wages are the most significant cost. Here Palace are ahead by £117 million over five years.

In the Beaky v PBOBE battle Paul Barber has earned (and is worth every cent) of £1.8m more than Parish, although Parish earns extra money from renting out one of his properties in Central London to Palace, presumably to avoid having to show potential sponsors, players etc Croydon.

Palace have lost £205m in the last five years compared to the Albion's £162m
View attachment 173049
These losses are mitigated by either player sales or owner/third party funding.
Palace's sale profits are £59m (mostly from AWB) and Albion's £77m (White, BDB) althogh expect this to rise substantially.
View attachment 173050
In terms of player signings, Palace have spent £201m and Albion £291m
View attachment 173051
When it comes to funding, Palace owners have lent the club through a variety of instruments £141m and Sir Tony has put in £216m

……although likely our losses would be higher as we chased promotion and didn’t have PL income. Presumably interest costs are significantly different- don’t think Sir T takes anything whereas Palace are paying market rates ?Thanks El Pres.
Presumably if we looked at the five years before these, Palace player purchases would be higher since it would cover their early Prem days?
First game of the weekend away vs. Arsenal. With Forest & Brentford next, both of whom could put them down a further place...

Too positive a view. I think it's clear that with so many people expecting an easy Arsenal win, palace are going to sneak a win. Ah well. At least it'll keep Roy in charge a little longer.First game of the weekend away vs. Arsenal. With Forest & Brentford next, both of whom could put them down a further place...
