stemlfc Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Never had this before. Could someone explain what exactly happened and why the initial loan and debt have gone? £44mil in the red and a bank loan of £322mil (£1.91mil a month until 2031) One of my players went to the chairman to get get reassurances that I won't have to sell players to pay off the debt. A day later a message came up stating the AC Milan board restructure the debt. [/img] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham FM Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 never seen that before.. how did you get that much in debt tho? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemlfc Posted June 20, 2010 Author Share Posted June 20, 2010 Well, it was actually my friend who has requested I post this. He took over when there was a financial problem there but still made 40 million in profit from transfers. Largely down to the sale of Pato. Therefore, there must have been a serious financial issue before he was hired. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanstuff Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 This is a bit confusing. The listing of a company voluntary arrangement on your team's finances page, coupled with the balance of 0, suggest your team basically went bankrupt & worked out a deal with creditors. However, this should have had more serious consequences for you - I understand that the football authorities in Italy generally relegate teams that become insolvent to the extent that you clearly did.

pelicanstuff Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 PS I think this is worth highlighting as a potential bug. Does your friend have a way to get a savegame from around this time to SI? I think what should have happened in this circumstance is the whole of the debt + existing loan(s) being refinanced into a larger longer-term loan, rather than a CVA which has basically eliminated the vast majority chunk of the debt without any footballing consequences. Also, the turnover/expenditure/profit doesn't look to add up properly for this season on the screenshot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I initially thought it was a bug myself to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanstuff Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I think it would at least be worth mentioning in the bugs forum to see what they have to say about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pelicanstuff Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 £68 million has just been pumped into the club too. Who by and why? Additional chairman investment? This sounds increasingly weird. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stemlfc Posted June 20, 2010 Author Share Posted June 20, 2010 By the chairman. Who, remains, to be Silvio Bersculoni. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanstuff Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Sounds like he's done a Ken Bates @ Leeds. However, the club should have seen footballing consequences as a result (administration or relegation) and I would call this a very likely bug.

Sunlock Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 I have seen a large amount of debt go away, after they claimed the economy was stabelized and better, so the debt was paid. Maybe something similar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
swisso Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Ask him to get screenshots of Income and Expenditure, because in July and August 2013, the club went from a healthy balance to -£40m and then down to around -£60m. Since the TV Money and Sponsorship comes in then, i can only assume he bought a player or players that cost quite a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFraser Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 As far as I understand it, a CVA is basically your last chance to resolve your problems before you go bankrupt and your assets get stripped. It is effectively your "final warning" as you will not get any more loans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From wikipedia (not always the best source I know): "A company voluntary arrangement can only be implemented by an insolvency practitioner who will draft Proposal for the creditors." This suggests the club should be in administration for a CVA to occur. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddietheorc Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Ive posted a couple of threads on the subject of administration and the verdict from people who posted on there was it needs to be improved massively, at the min the game just doesn't really know what it doing, it does not have much financial sense. Hopefully it will be improved in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
