Swans Accounts on 15:12 - Apr 3 with 6768 views | andypitt56 | I am not an accountant but it looks like a loss of £50m without taking into account drop in wages and that. we must have got more than £20m of that back by getting rid of all the players in the summer surely?? this £30m deficit doesn't add up to me. Someone with a financial background can probably figure it out. | | | |
Swans Accounts on 15:12 - Apr 3 with 6767 views | PozuelosSideys | The trick is going to be getting rid of the Ayew's, Bony etc off the wage bill in the summer. If we cant, then we will need to sell the likes of James, Socks and VDH to cover that. | |

Swans Accounts on 15:29 - Apr 3 with 6684 views | majorraglan | The headline figure of a £3.2m loss isn’t as bad as I expected, that said the massive drop in income will be this year. Increasing the commercial side of the house by £2.6m from sponsorship deals is a decent result to be honest, good work from the Marketing team, Pearlman or both. I would like to hear the views of someone like Lisa re this. | | | |
Swans Accounts on 15:33 - Apr 3 with 6663 views | thornabyswan | Bony is gone for next season. The 2 Ayews are key though. | |

Swans Accounts on 16:49 - Apr 3 with 6464 views | Dr_Winston | Increasing sponsorship income by £2.6m despite the team struggling is a decent result. Just underlines what a f*cking waste of space Dineen was when the team was on a high. | |

Swans Accounts on 17:48 - Apr 3 with 6286 views | Swansea93 | Yeah Bony free agent in the summer, along with the Ayews we still have Narsingh, Borja, Fer, Olsson, Routledge, VDH Montero, Carroll & Naughton all likely to leave and all on big wages, should free up some financial strain we currently have and by keeping the likes of MCB Grimes Celina is vital.

Swans Accounts on 17:50 - Apr 3 with 6269 views | blackswan | Wages down by 8 million but operating costs up Around 25 million wonder where that's gone | | | |
Swans Accounts on 18:16 - Apr 3 with 6171 views | jasper_T | The stadium after the acquisition would be part. | | | |
Swans Accounts on 18:21 - Apr 3 with 6155 views | LeonWasGod | Is this what you’re referring to? “Total operating costs, including an increase of £27.7 million in player amortisation costs of £51.9 million, amounted to £175.1 million compared with £150.8 million for the previous year.” So in otherwords it’s the increased costs associated with all the new, expensive, transfers that season (Bony, A. Ayew, Clueless, Sanches loan, etc). | | | |
Swans Accounts on 18:24 - Apr 3 with 6137 views | Darran | From what I was told by someone down the club Dineen secures the front of shirt sponsor because we didn’t have one. I’m not sure if you remember but I posted about us not having a shirt sponsor last summer. Just saying. | |
| |
Swans Accounts on 18:32 - Apr 3 with 6107 views | jasper_T | Don't think Sanches comes under amortisation as a loan player isn't an owned asset that can devalue, he would just be a substantial wage expenditure for the year. Bony would account for £6m in amortisation "costs" on his own due to the high transfer fee and short contract. | | | |
Swans Accounts on 18:34 - Apr 3 with 6098 views | Badlands | Pay reportedly Narsingh, £30,000 Borja, £45,000 Fer,£45,000 Olsson, £33,000 Routledge, £36,000 VDH £15,000 Montero, £30,000 Carroll £35,000 Naughton £32,000 Bony £90,000 Jordan £50,000 Andre £40,000 (ambiguous or £80,000. Dyer £32,000 Hard to know how much some of the players are really with to he club - are we paying any part of loanee wages, how much will we save by offering deals to he likes of Routledge on significantly lower wages compared with cost of replacing them. It was obvious to even the most jaded that last night players who showed a different class included Hoorn, Dyer, Rutledge and Naughton. | |

Swans Accounts on 18:37 - Apr 3 with 6086 views | BillyChong | Maybe we’ll hang on to some players in the summer then and actually make some signings..... | | | |
Swans Accounts on 18:43 - Apr 3 with 6065 views | thornabyswan | I think we will yes. | |
| |
Swans Accounts on 18:43 - Apr 3 with 6064 views | Badlands | The next set of accounts will include the massive drop in revenue as a result of relegation so I doubt we will go mad. In truth we have, with the youth coming through, a vey large squad. In lots of ways the summer will be as much about keeping this squad together as bringing in many new faces. | |
| |
Swans Accounts on 18:51 - Apr 3 with 6032 views | jasper_T | One reason for the lower wages is that figure includes performance bonuses (and survival bonuses) paid out and we were shocking almost all season. | | | |
Swans Accounts on 19:04 - Apr 3 with 5982 views | monmouth | I think most would settle for that, but the Ayews and Borja Bastard might scupper it. Maybe we could try and sell DJ on sale and loan back like other clubs do, but sadly, I think the team will be broken up. | |
| |
Swans Accounts on 19:32 - Apr 3 with 5883 views | LeonWasGod | Would Sanches’s significant loan fee be included (rumours it was ~£6m, no idea if true)? Soon adds up doesn’t it. That ~£6m for Bony, same for Ayew, ~£5m for Clueless. Which if fine as the Siggy/Llorente fees largely offset. We’d probably have been in the black if not for yet another mid-season sacking and all the compo and extra fees. £2-3m loss on top of what we know from previous accounts mean our net debt going into this season was tiny. Which further suggests this ‘black hole’ is simply the difference between what our operating costs were last year versus expected income this year. Which is expected and perfectly normal. | | | |
Swans Accounts on 19:35 - Apr 3 with 5863 views | jasper_T | Maybe it does get added as amortisation when there's a fee, and it's just a single year loss, I don't know. | | | |
Swans Accounts on 19:40 - Apr 3 with 5848 views | LeonWasGod | Me neither. Not important in the bigger scheme of things is it. All I was trying to do was head off the inevitable claims that money was being siphoned out to pay for Rooney’s hookers or some other nonsense! The rise in costs due to higher amortisation is easily explainable. | | | |
