We gonna get a nice slice of that pie...

Premier League clubs' revenue reached a record £2,360m in 2011/12, according to the 22nd Annual Review of Football Finance from the Sports Business Group at Deloitte.

In total, the revenue of the top 92 clubs in English football exceeded £3 billion for the first time.

Dan Jones, Partner in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte, said: "Despite operating in a challenging economic environment, English club football's profile, exposure and increasingly global interest have continued to drive revenue growth for the top clubs.

"The combined revenue of the Premier League clubs increased by 4% to almost £2.4 billion, with another year of impressive commercial revenue growth, largely focussed among the highest ranked Premier League clubs, and relatively stable matchday and broadcast revenues."

Almost 75% of the Premier League clubs' revenue increase in 2011/12 was spent on wages, which increased by £64m (4%) to £1.7 billion and resulted in the overall Premier League clubs' wages to revenue ratio remaining at 70%.

Alan Switzer, Director in the Sports Business Group at Deloitte, said: "The aggregate operating profit of Premier League clubs improved to £98m in 2011/12, though this is a margin equivalent to only 4% of revenue with half of the clubs making an operating loss.

"The Premier League clubs have agreed to a system of enhanced financial regulations, designed to improve the sustainability of its clubs.

"The successful implementation of these rules, coupled with the imminent boost to broadcast revenues, could provide huge benefits to the long-term development, growth and stability of the game and its clubs."

Revenue in the Football League Championship increased by £53m (13%) to £476m in 2011/12.

This was driven in part by the number of clubs being in receipt of parachute payments from the Premier League and the change in the mix of clubs.

All made possible by Malky and the group of players that won enough points to get us promoted. Dave Jones proved that you can have the players but not get what is required out of them.

It's been said before and it will be said again.. For every fan who walks away,there will be several waiting in the wings. Sad I know,but true. With a waiting list of over 3k for season tix and growing interest everyday,if we can be successful in this league the Prawn Sarnie brigade will have a monopoly on our fan base. Blue or Red, that is inevitable.

Thanks Vincent Tan.
