I am saying £15m. In fairness its an estimate but if you look at

our accounts ticketing revenue is consistently just under £10m per season. Catering is £4m. Commercial is £8m although i think Kensell said he'd increased that to £12m last season.

In fairness it could, therefore, be up to £22m (especially if our parachute payments have been impacted at all) but that would probably mean we are getting no income at all from i'follow or any of our sponsorship deals or any other source of commercial income for the entirety of this season.

So the sale of one of these players should cover us for losses this season in a worst case scenario. I accept that may be necssary. However, its not necessary to sell 4 or 5 of them.

        Surely the point is that Covid has changed everything somewhat? (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 09:36:39
        
        Yes its changed things by about £15m (this season) if we can't get fans in at all. (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 1, 09:56:57
        
        To be fair we've always said we'd sell if the price is right. (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 10:03:09
        
        Who is saying £15m? Have the club? I genuinely don't know. (n/m) (NCFC) - Azteca, Oct 1, 09:59:20

        Not that I've seen. But I'm guessing it's a per game calculation. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 10:04:04
        
        Ok, but then there's talk of TV payback (NCFC) - Azteca, Oct 1, 10:07:03
        
        I'm assuming thats in the loss they had already allowed for (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 1, 10:10:49
        
        Agreed. (n/m) (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 10:10:16
        
        Well they would have done for half a season surely? (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Oct 1, 09:52:07
        
        Well the idea at the start of last season was to not spend big (NCFC) - Yellalee, Oct 1, 09:58:15
        
        It’s a point well made I meant ... (NCFC) - loz, Oct 1, 10:07:26

        I think "we don;t need to sell" is (or certainly was at the time) true (NCFC) - Jim, Oct 1, 10:16:08
        
        We always knew we would be selling this summer, and planned for that (NCFC) - jampersands, Oct 1, 10:39:05
