Andy[ro] Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Hi, I have a simple question. Finisished my first season with everton. At the end of the season i had the balance -5 million$. Finished 10, awarded around 20.000.000$, so my balance went +15.000.000. At the start of the season i recieved 48.000.000$ from tv rights, 9.000.000 from sponsors, and 12.000.000 from season tickets. But my balance is now only 25.000.000$... So where the hell did all those money went to? I should have the balance around 75.000.000$ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
backpackant Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Rent, wages, bonuses, upkeep of facilities, loans... are Everton a PLC? If so, there's probably a shareholder dividend to pay out too. There's a more detailed screen within Information -> Finances that should itemise everything.

TheShamanOfFm Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 well i would imagine the board pocketed it xD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy[ro] Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 i dont know what PLC means, but i didn't recieve any news about divident payouts. Wages and bonuses are shown separately, costed about 70.000.000. Rent and upkeep of facilities cost no more than 5-6 millions a year. Also the loan is shown on finances screen, but the 50.000.000 that are missing doesen't say anything about them... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
koli99 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Tv rights are spread over the year..., you don't get 48000000 in june... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis_D Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Tv rights are spread over the year..., you don't get 48000000 in june... This is correct. OP - Surely you have played FM for more than one season before to know this?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
harris Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 yeah, all of the funds they say you get at the beginning of the season is basically what you will receive throughout the following season obviously, ul get season ticket sales straight away Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your Club runs on fresh air, had no debts, players need no wages and doesn't requre general upkeep,you would sack the groundsman to have an extra 20k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is so obvious, He must think he is on FIFA Manager where they give you the balance to buy players. But the FM Finance 'Balance' Still isn't what you can spend, your transfer budget is seperate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk54321 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 The finance in this game are the most realistic ever. Match day costs, tax, non football cost, other, are all nice and high. Also, players wont accept £0 as a signing on fee like in the past. Helps keep the game a lot more realistic, apart from a few clubs with rich owners and a very few select clubs that can make a profit without outside investment, football clubs are generally not cash rich. Most struggle and are losing money and are hugely in debt to banks and the like. In past versions of FM it as all too easy to make money and the expenses were never high enough, now it is a lot harder to turn an average Prem club into a mega rich club and is ar more realistic.

Andy[ro] Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 I NEVER said that i wanted the balance as my transfer funds, don't know how you understood that. I didn't know that the tv money are spread all over the year, i thought that give me that money at the start, thank you for informing me on that. The truth is that i'm really interested where even a single dollars is going, so i was kind of mad when i saw only 25.000.000 in my balance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
