Seems to be a number of "undisclosed" there though Wakey.

Plenty of undisclosed for both sides but you can't argue that Bournmouth have bought better than us.
Buying the likes of Ritchie and Pugh(the latter won't be £500k) for less than £1m has been a real steal for them, the same applies to Kermorgant
RE: Bournemouth v Huddersfield Town match thread - Marco4 - 16-02-2015
In some ways, Bournemouth are travelling on a bit of momentum (and why not). My worry is, if that slows, where will they go then? I thought Brighton were set for a few years of serious playoff threatening, but their bubble has burst a little now.
RE: Bournemouth v Huddersfield Town match thread - Terrier1987cas - 16-02-2015
I don't look at many people in that Bournemouth team and think 'they must be on a fair whack'... They've sold well and bought even better, credit to them, they're not breaking any rules and if they get promoted they're sorted financially and the 'risk', if there's even been one considering they're already making profit, has been worth it.
RE: Bournemouth v Huddersfield Town match thread - theo_luddite - 16-02-2015
What do you mean making a profit? - Those numbers are minus numbers i.e. what they owe their rich benefactor, as are ours.
RE: Bournemouth v Huddersfield Town match thread - MNTerrier - 17-02-2015
Have Bournemouth bought better? i dont know , certainly bought earlier the average age of their squad is 26.9 years old whereas Towns is 24.3 years old
for comparison Bournemouth have the 7th oldest average age in the champions ship , Huddersfield have the Joint youngest average age in the Championship
so experience must count for something ,
The Market Value of their squad is also more than 4 million more than towns ( althought the value given was in euros) , 19.75 million E compared to 15.2 million E
my point wasnt a comparison between the two clubs finances my points was how will Bournemouth hope to survive in the Prem with a very small stadium ,althought they have bought smart and early what revenue streams do they have to be able to maintain that team.
from what i can gather the windfall of 7 million for Lallana saved Bournemouth from being in breach of the FFP, in april of 2014 they posted a loss of 15.3 million pounds , that year clubs could only post a loss of 8 million.
RE: Bournemouth v Huddersfield Town match thread - theo_luddite - 17-02-2015
They'll survive the same way as Blackpool and Wigan, who rarely filled their ground. Most of the income comes from the TV deal, a chunk more from whatever the owner is willing to throw at it. What they take at the gate is secondary. That and they could decide to charge "Chelsea" prices rather than £20 odd quid a match.
Prem Clubs in particular and many clubs in general (not all) no longer live off their gate money alone. It just helps to control the debt.
