What's our wage bill at the moment £3 mil a year ? say we write off what we earned from our sales to pay for the training facilities , how much would the upgrade to the Liberty cost ? Anyone know ? If we say £20 mil, That would still leave a good wedge for some new faces and leave some in the pot.
Our wage bill must be much bigger than that surely? 1 player on 30k a week would be 1.5 million a year without bonuses
I don't know that's what I'm saying but matchday revenues must be contributing to that surely? So if we say £5-8 mil tops I think we will still be on a sound financial footing don't you think?
I think you'll find that wage costs are about £30m a year, and out turnover for last year was £65m or so http://www.financialfairplay.co.uk/resources/Swansea City PROPER accounts 31 May 2012.pdf
I have requested this before but it all falls on deaf ears in The Liberty..... Hooters Bar and a descending pole onto the centre circle at half time I have heard this girl is in for an interview, all pints shaken not stirred .....

Thanks for that interesting reading matchday revenue was 6 mil then which will increase with the proposed upgrading of the Liberty. As you say wages were £ 30 mil but still we are in a very healthy situation as compared with many other teams.( mentioning no names but would love to see them's down the road balance sheet ) Can't fault the board can you and did I read right that Mel Nurse and co are still ' owed ' 400k . There should be a statue of him outside the Libert too imo .
I met Mel about 6 months ago, I was doing some work in some of his properties, he was exactly the same as on that fall and rise programme, very passionate about the swans and came across as a lovely guy. And I agree about the statue for him, he helped save our club.
Gentlemen, Swansea had revenues of £108,000,000 confirmed as of last week and that did not include the commercial side from Dec '12 to May '13.
