Have a look at your income and expenses to see which areas you are receiving and spending money from. See if improvements can be made. Aside from that though a lot of clubs receive a big chunk of income at the beginning and end of the season so its not odd to see a small loss on a monthly basis.

ATW Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Aside from that though a lot of clubs receive a big chunk of income at the beginning and end of the season so its not odd to see a small loss on a monthly basis. This. Do not worry too much about monthly loses. I would be more worried if you were set to make huge yearly losses. Season ticket, prize money, sponsorship etc. all happen at beginning/end of the season, while ticket money does go in weekly - it will be not as much as the other income. Expendenture (wages, rentals, other things) is taking out on a weekly/monthly basis so it is very normal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWaRFeGa Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 What about loans? Aren't Arsenal still paying for the stadium? I'm sure eventually you'll start making money - but there might be a long way to go yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickisarsenal55 Posted May 9, 2011 Author Share Posted May 9, 2011 last season i made 277m and lost 278m so not bad but dont really want to lose money with Arsenal's good financial reputation P.S i have a bank loan of 189m in 2014.so i owe 1.3m a month until 2029.Dont know if this is from the Emirates but it could explain me consistently lose 5 to 10 million every month Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Pauli Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Every club in the EPL will lose money most months (aside from transfer profits) because some of the major income factors (PL money, competition success money) are doled out as lump sums. The board have no clue about this income stream, so I've had projects cancelled because of lack of funds days before receiving millions (but I've also had euro 38 M of interest free loans from the chairman for the same reason).

Robioto Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I lose about £3-7m a month on my Man Utd save but still turn a profit come the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Play Up Pompey! Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Do you pay high appearance bonuses and goal bonuses? If every first team player has £20k appearance bonus you could be spending over £200k every game which would be more than £1M a month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacticalGenius Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Arsenal have high outgoings in terms of loans, a massive backroom staff and a big squad - once you include reserves/youth. In my current Arsenal save I've cleared out over half the scouts, all the youth coaches and trimmed the wage bill by kicking out many of the reserves and youths that won't ever get a game.
