Does anybody know the schedule for payments from the premier league/sky.
If tan was driven out would we have a cash flow problem.

So if we have wages of say 30k a week minimum for our squad of 25 that's 750k a week plus all the others call it 150k a week.
That's 900k a week plus other running costs.

About 6000 walk ups every 2 weeks at £30 a go and we have the princely sum of 180,k a fortnight coming in that's 90k a week cash coming in.

Looks like we could have a problem considering that 90 k is only when the season is on and the 900k a week is all year.....

This is why Terry Celtic Manor won't get involved.

How do you propose paying Tan back?

He can get his money back from whoever buys the club from him!

Who's gonna buy a club that has a loan of £30m or more? at 7% owed to Tan and a weekly income that covers 10% of the weekly wage bill?

I take it you are not including the TV money/ season ticket money in the weekly income figure quoted ?

Might be wrong but I think QPR got around £40 million last year, so based on figures above. , wouldn't that almost cover the weekly wage bill?
