Ah interesting, could this be a tool used in order to encourage certain members of the board not to sell on their 'investment'? Just put that thought out there...... | | | |

To be fair though I think we made in excess of 30 million over the 2 previous seasons combined. So seems reasonable to me. | |

I may be wrong but didn't they also have a £1m pay out for last 2 years as well ? | | | |

This is the third or fourth £1m payout as far as I remember. | |

It's at least the third. Just strange that divi stays same regardless of profit. | | | |

I'm beginning to wonder at the internal workings of the club. Wouldn't surprise me if the reason that there's so much secrecy over this "investment" nonsense is that relationships are strained between certain people. | |

It did, and was announced in last summer's newsletter. I'm not a fan, although it has helped furnish the Trust with a substantial fighting fund which is most useful currently. Anyway, I'm on holiday so haven't had a chance to look at it in too much detail. Cheers to NJ for the detail. [Post edited 19 Feb 2015 22:05]

The accounts are not happy holiday reading now I've got a copy, Ux. I'd wait until you're back. The club looks under strain and the balance sheet is creaking. Cash flow is a problem at times I suspect, and the club looks under capitalised. There is not much of a buffer. Clearly, the spending on Landore And Fairwood has been a strain. Now I've looked at the accounts, it's no surprise the ground extension hasn't happened yet. The club is fortunate to have guaranteed cash flow on pre determined dates with the tv money payments fixed and pretty much certain, which means it can therefore plan around it. Our FD is a busy boy, I imagine. The increase in commercial income is disappointing. The commercial team has grown from 18 to 55, but revenue has only gone up by 2.5m on last year. Most of that was probably from one off deals like the shirt sponsor. It makes you wonder what those 55 people doing - other than crowd facing LED screens which clearly generate next to nothing, but annoy your most valuable customers every 2 weeks. They're clearly not looking after stock levels, which are 5x higher than last year. It's a good job we changed our accounting treatment to recognise players as intangible assets. It makes the overall balance sheet position look slightly less frightening. An accounting profit is nice, of course. But with the way we account for things now, it's a largely meaningless number. The balance sheet is the important thing to focus on. | | | |

There is that. I have no problem with dividends being paid, in fact I'm in favour of it but if investment is so urgently required why not reinvest from profit? It will be interesting to see who in particular will be parting with (some of) their shares. | |

What, commercial team grown to 55 people from 18? How many kids and grandkids have they had? In all seriousness, the jobs for the boys and family member stories I have heard in last few months is amazing. They are now even getting coaching jobs !!!!!! Ffs, sort it out SCFC. | |

Would there have been a £1M dividend if players values hadn't been brought into the books? I wonder if the "commercial staff" include people who work in the shop etc.? Growing by that much makes the whole story of "Huw won't release funds so we can grow commercial revenue" excuse sound like a load of old bollocks now anyway. [Post edited 20 Feb 2015 2:04]
