weeyin Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 2 hours ago, Ya Bezzer! said: Bodo Glimt have a £31 million wage bill and have spent £38 million on their current team. I'm sure if we can match those figures Jens will be happy to stay! Is that number accurate? I'm not saying you're wrong. Only that represents a huge hike from a Deloitte report from 2024 talking about how healthy Norwegian football was. From June 2024, it says the league champions Vålerenga had the highest personnel costs of 20.8 million Norwegian Krone, which is only about £1.68 million.

weeyin Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 Still having flashbacks to the Well Society Board members who wanted to accept Barmack's offer. What was it again? He put in 10p, his wife posted about us on social media, and the Well Society had to put in 1 million quid (although I may be slightly misrepresenting the offer).

"In terms of their wage structure, Glimt maintains a wage-to-revenue ratio of approximately 45%, which is significantly below the average in Europe, and this helps the club to remain profitable even in years when they don't qualify for the Champions League group stages. Despite that, Bodo/Glimt have been able to multiply player wages by no less than ten in five years and still manage to maintain a sustainable structure thanks to income from the European club competitions. Salaries have increased in line with their achievements, and Bodo/Glimt clearly top the rankings in the Norwegian Eliteserie in terms of the wage bill. Last year, the club paid out 346 million Norwegian kroner (approx. €31 million) in salaries – an increase of 116 million Norwegian kroner (approx. €11 million) from 2024. In comparison, Brann had its best financial year last year. The Bergen club paid out 142 million Norwegian kroner (approx. €13 million) in wages, over 200 million Norwegian kroner (approx. €17 million) less than Glimt." https://www.flashscore.com/news/soccer-eliteserien-bodo-glimt-s-transformation-from-near-bankruptcy-into-70-million-arctic-powerhouse/xxYV93Jj/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuwell2 Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 From what I can see here is the money available per round if eliminated Q2 - €175k + €350k (£450k) Q3 - €175k + €550k (£630k) playoffs - €175k + €750k (£800k) If we reach the promised land League phase qualification €3.17m (£2.7m) then €400k (£350k) per won match €200k (£175k) per drawn match For an example Hearts made £4.96m in 24/25 season from this competition and the payments are the same. This year 1st in the SPFL league gets £4.58m. (Yes I can’t bring myself to say winners ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 I guess it all depends on who we draw and the costs attached, but given that the early rounds are regionalised now and we are likely to do pretty well out of the home leg attendance, I would have thought, even if we do get put out at the first time of asking, we should make pretty decent money out of this. Does anyone know what we made out of the League Cup this year as a comparison? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mio Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 Like to get a Welsh side and scud them early. Nice wee trip down there at a reasonable cost. I’d then love a trip to Poland after that…. Been a few times over there and it’s a brilliant place to visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
