word is that this all stems from killian brennan who was demanding a wage higher than any other player at the club, since he's since signed for bohs i would guess that they are the team that these comments are being aimed at

The Big Club pays Big Wages - naturally we don't do things by halves (unlike our smaller cousins across the League)

It's the way of the world ofc

[dcfcsteve]

Obviously if their was an all island league, then our budget would go up considerably.

How ?

Still shows the difference in value of player in each league.

You mean 'quality'....

[pineapple stu]

How ?

Presumably the same way an All Ireland league would dramatically improve the quality of it, and make everyone want to come out and watch it all of a sudden.

[Lim till i die]

In the First Division, Kildare and Kilkenny both turned profits.

That's some achievement in fairness

[MariborKev]

I'd guess that Cork, Bohs, Derry, Drogheda, Galway and Pats would be above that wages figure. Possibly Sligo as well.

And it's my guess before somebody gets all flustered.

Our wage bill for Y/E 30.11.2006 was £393k for the year. That included all staff on and off the field though.

i assume thats a typo unless theres a serious fiddle going on up in the brandywell.

[MariborKev]

I'm sitting looking at the copy of the accounts which I got at the AGM.

Staff costs £393,102 which was up from £243,285 for Y.E 31.10.05

If its any help, I raised my eyebrows at it as well....

Thats about €550,000 pull the other leg lads.

No doubt Pineapple Stu or some of the other accountants on here with access to Companies House Data can provide the relevant screen shots.......

Bear in mind, that was the figures given to the Y.E 30.11.2006

and your point is ?
by my recollection in 2006 you finished second on goal difference and won two cups due in no small part to your full time manager and playing staff. something is incorrect with those figures. fact!

[MariborKev]

The point I was making was that I would say our wage bill exploded this year due to new contracts and the donkeys brought in by Frodo and Robbo.

[gufct]

so your full time players were on about £15k stg a year yea right.

[OneRedArmy]

Opinion actually, but I see your point.

[Dazzy]

Only a handful of our players are full-time. Others have 2nd Jobs, we just train like a FT team, i think. Shocked to see that the firgure is that low.

Care to outline which players are not on full time contracts.......

It must really hurt you when people quote from official reports which take away from your nonsensical rantings.

Maribor - the accounts you got at the AGM would have been full accounts, whereas abridged accounts are filed with the Companies House. Best I can tell from Derry's 2005 accounts, for example, is that youz lost £17k that year. Bet you wish you were as well run as Galway and could keep your losses down to a mere E80k!

[MariborKev]

Indeed,

Have to say that a number of us are rather sceptical about the figures involved though.

For the record we made a profit of £31,262 for the Y.E 31.11.06
