Financial Fair play


Premier League clubs earn anywhere between £110 million and £180 million per season. These payouts—often finalized and audited by July following the campaign's conclusion—consist of an equal share of broadcast and commercial revenues, UK facility fees (based on how often a club's matches are televised), and merit payments (based on final league position).

These annual earnings are distributed across four main categories:

  • Equal Share: Every club receives a standard, equal cut from both domestic (£29.8M - £31.9M) and international (£56.6M - £59.2M) broadcasting deals.
  • Central Commercial Revenue: An equal flat distribution of about £7.9M - £11.5M for all 20 clubs.
  • Facility Fees:
    Additional individual broadcast payments based on the number of times a club is shown on live television in the UK.
    • Merit Payments: Scaled prize money based strictly on finishing position. Each place is typically worth roughly £2.6M - £2.7M.

Payout totals are heavily influenced by TV appearances and final league position. For example, champions and top-tier clubs often finish the season taking home upwards of £170 million when merit bonuses and facility fees are factored in, while teams finishing at the bottom of the table will collect approximately £110 million.

Yes, but i agree with something someone said on another thread somewhere about the Chairman wanting us to be squeaky clean.

And do we really want to be spending over budget given the shoite we got ourselves in with Reid and Keane's spending sprees ?
 
Three packs of baccy and some whelks from the fish bloke who turn up to the club on a Saturday night. My dad told me Mbappe is signing tonight as well, so you figure out which ones more realistic.
 
Given we are still beholden to the model, PSR, Euro spending rules,and our revenue streams still arent what the traditional clubs get, I’d be surprised if it anything more than 90m
RLB has already dampened down expectations with talk of 2 to 4 players
Hope it’s more but we have prudent, smart cookies who know their stuff and especially around football finances

What’s our expected budget this season?

Possibly something similar to last season I would think.
Rough estimates would be a turnover approaching £250M.
Allowed to spend 70% of that, so £185M.
Salaries maybe £80M.
Running costs £20M.
Ongoing annual amortization £40M
Would leave us with plenty of room to match last seasons sales without needing to sell.

Disclaimer: The numbers are likely to be complete bollocks.
