    How costly is the bottom 6 finish?

    A couple of million for the transfer market in the summer from the Foley investment, the rest on infrastructure. Call it 2 million. How much cash will we lose with a bottom 6 finish compared to top 6? League placing prize money, tv money, drop in attendance money, drop in general sales, merch/hospitality etc, drop in season ticket money, compensation money for sacking manager/coaching team.

    Couple million from Foley added to budget minus money we would have budgeted for.

    This bottom 6 finish really is a disaster not just for this season but pegs us back for next season aswell.

    Pretty accurate especially when you factor a Derby at home in.

    Potentially less ST sales too. However a quick start to the Summer Transfer window with positive signings could compensate that.

    Club ambition is consistent Top 4. Whilst this is not what has been achieved historically by the club, it is not unrealistic based on budgets and resources now available to HFC. Failure this season will result in a seven figure deficit which is not sustainable and will set back our investment plans in the summer. Too many employees simply aren’t up to the job and massive overhaul in footballing matters required asap. Really hope Foley and the BK Group can support us now.
