As the CL UEFA payments change next season, I expect to see it cost any club (Manure and the arsewipes) at least £50 mill in prize money + media money and around £15 mill in lost ticket revs (hospitality packages and ticket prices are in more demand and command higher premiums), the great unknown is how much it will cost them in Sponsor rev's - shirt deals will, for example, have penalty clawback clauses if you miss CL football two or more seasons in a row....
This can only be good news for us, as it will affect their plans for transfer spending as well as force adjustments to salaries. It will also mean that in terms of commercial sponsorship growth for us (an area we have lagged behind in) we will be ranked as a higher value partner than the arsewipes, if not yet the Manure. I already know of one sponsor who has changed their marcom plans for next season :-)
I expect our 2018/19 turnover to exceed theirs, and the gap in 2019/20 (assuming we get past the group stage next season to exceed £50 mill.
