I now understand a bit more where you’re coming from but, you cannot have change without change. At some point we had to do it and if we didn’t we could’ve carried on with the previous and made the situation worse. Every club outside about 8 or 9 are in danger of relegation so what’s new? And I’d actually argue our current player assets would be of more value and use than the ageing players before we started the new strategy with Eze I think it might’ve been. You might be right in thinking that a fair few palace fans will be deluding themselves they we aren’t a selling club even though that’s part of the point in buying Eze, Olise, Guehi, Andersen etc, but most of them will be kids with the odd few who are clearly part time fans, and every club bar a couple get frustrated with transfer and selling policies, so what’s new there? Not a lot. I think the best thing to do is be confident we have freedman, Parish and Textor, or whoever provides the cash at the time, and Vieira to stop us being relegated and progressing the plan and strategy even if we don’t finish higher season after season. League finishes don’t always give a true reflection if the players who go aren’t replaced because the squad and club management is shambolic or just complacent. Parish had obviously been planning this strategy for sometime with the appointment of Freeman, who isnt a great manager, but a good spotter of talent that fits into the team. Following the Stoke model of buying old experienced players can only last for a limited time, as there is no resell value, only high wages.

I agree, the Stoke model as you refer to it, has a limited and expensive life cycle as has been clearly demonstrated with the clear out at the end of season 20/21; hence the model Palace are going down is so much more sensible on so many fronts - it's not just about the potential re-sale of some really talented players but also the development, through the academy, of others a number of whom look really promising. Add that to a significant upgrade in facilities and the whole scenario makes real business sense especially given south London is such a hotbed of young talent. My sense on the financial front is that the owners are prepared to invest in such a strategy given that it will grow the business value of their asset for eventual sale; Parish might be much more emotionally tied to Palace but it seems very doubtful if that applies to the others.

Reading this Topic is we are doomed if we spend and doomed if we dont the 2 years you are talking about are covid years , Parish made a promise he will not let us go into admim again and worked out the financial plan to that , its been small steps to get big rewards a class academy , younger team , change our DNA of the way we play , I really dont know what people on here want, as Accountant friend said to me look at man utds accounts there one step away from going bust like most top clubs

Funny name, Eagle Football. We are sure unrelated to Palace?
If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities. |

Released this morning: (Print it out, staple together, drop on the floor next to the loo.) Without reading in full, I always jump to this number. However, and very important, our accounting reference period changed by one month, and our latest fiscal year numbers reflect an 11 month FY. Having not read the report in its entirety, I do not know the how, if, and to what extent DeloitteUK recognized the fact in its representation of Palace financial data.

Spend as much as we like, have as many players as we like, tap up everyone, the rules don't apply to us. Sorry, thought I was on the Chelsea or Man City forum.

Must be f+××ed. The net outlays and high wages just cannot be sustained. I said this about a week ago, just thinking about the financial aspect of Kouyate's time with us. I know we acquired some nice players, but one bad/unlucky season and the club is in a world of financial trouble. We will need to sell some significant silver very soon. You may be correct but I would need to see a deep forensic accountancy report before coming to any conclusions,football clubs have many revenue streams and it is hard to judge wether we are solvent or bust.

Its not the spending transfer wise, Tomkins, McArthur, Jairo and Luka are together about 230kk a week, compared to Guehi, Eze and Olise on about 110k a week,

No but like anyone else, I can read an income statement for the 24 months through June 30, 2021. And then consider the huge net outlay on players last summer It's a bit more nuanced than that - the income statement needs to be taken in context of the group and associated accounts. Of the nearly £98k loss over the two periods - £84k was depreciation and amortisation. Numbers are funny things and all of this is historical. You can't read an income statement on it's own - and football clubs have unique accounting rules to boot.
