Question's for accountants?

Initial contract was 5.5 years since January 2019

 

We should still be trying our absolute best to offload the likes of Fraser, Hayden & Lewis to help trim the wage bill further.

 

Hence why I said same expenditure or thereabouts

 

Yes but his initial contract was how long. If it was 5 years but he signed a new contract 3 years in there would still be 2 left.

Unless of course they released the full amount to the P and L which I very much doubt.

 

Oh well more or less gone. Has he really been here that long.

How the feck did that happen. Lol

 

Well it sounds like Fraser is being a twat, wants full pay from us and no transfer fee for Southampton.

Hayden isn’t worth anything but we should just get the wages off the books.

Lewis still has potential but what a flop he has been.

I would add Krafth to that.

 

Inflation.

Or maybe Covid - that whole lockdown period ****s with the mind regarding the perspective of time.

 

Covid and the fact that he’s scored 11 goals and made 17 assists in 756 games.

 

Previously, if a contract was renewed, the remaining amount to amortise is then amortised over the further years. Was another way to squeeze the PSR number. Not sure if that's still valid.

 

Max of 5 years though now isn't it?

 

Certainly is for the initial amortisation period (presume you can no longer extend), so it depends when Miggy signed his extension vs the Chelsea ruling mate.
