Two ways I see this

1) interest rates are low and our owners are possibly very capable of getting a greater return on cash investments than the interest on the loan.

2) loan interest I believe is offset against tax, so in effect it could be in interest free loan.

I'm not an accountant but I certainly don't think it is anything for concern. Our owners are a very astute group business wise.

Brighton didn't; they did have the money just "lying about". I await an explanation, if there ever is one, but I question the point of billionaire owners if we have to go cap in hand to a bank.

Anecdote does not a case make. How do you buy a house? Do you save up every single penny first or do you take out a mortgage?

I am not meaning to be flippant, but a business borrowing money is so bloody standard I just don't think there should be any cause for concern.

This will be to manage cash flow.

^^ This.

The loan is earmarked for a brown envelope, forwarded to BFS as a "Thank you".

 


Systematically dragged down by the lawmakers

It's not the first time we have done this. I am sure that there are more financially astute than me that can explain the mechanism properly

And there's me thinking it was this very kind of thing that screwed Leeds over. Surely we don't want to be going down that road.

 


Cynic or realist? It's a fine line!

The external capital brought in don't pay for 100% of capital investment. It's there to leverage debt, which will be serviced from the increased revenue the investment yields. Bog standard capital financing. Nothing to see here, move on.

It's a fact not an anecdote; Brighton have no debts secured on the club.

Others have made the case that this is probably just to deal with a temporary cash flow issue and I expect they're right. But, however you slice it, if we need to borrow now, unless we increase our income, the next time there's a good chance we'll have to borrow bigger.

If we need every red cent to stay in the PL, I'm beginning to think that improvements to the infrastructure are beginning to look like pie in the sky.

Iirc there's was on gate receipts which weren't guaranteed and at a high interest rate. This is guaranteed income hence the low interest rate

 


the dignified don't even enter in the game

The Barclays doc is unclear, but if might just be the creation of a credit facility which is guaranteed via the charge on the club.

This is quite common.

So we have a credit line we can use as and when it is required.

Yes Arsenal borrowed money for a new stadium - we are not developing the stadium, in fact the stadium development has stalled.
So it would be nice if SP can explain this charge in more detail to alleviate concerns.

Brighton didn't go into debt only because their owner put in c150m to build the new ground.

I'm not 100% that this is fully kosher.

If you see the attached snapshot, it has the address asHolmesdale Road, whereas Selhurst Park's address is Whitehorse Lane ???
