Because of the structure of the group including a parent in the Caymens which does not have to file accounts its is impossible to be conclusive (That is why they go to the Caymens anyway). However what we can say is there has been no new capital put into Liverpool FC. They did lend the club about 80m, which is now 100m+ with interest roll-up. This was most likely borrowed by Kop Caymen and what was used to secure it is no known. A further approx 35m rolled up to 44m was lent to Kop Football.
Did they put their hands into their pockets? I doubt it.
I said I'd stop flogging the point in the other thread. That doesn't mean I can't chime in here.
I think you - and every other financially genned up person in these threads - massively underestimate how much money G&H have taken out of the club.
I have no accounting insight whatsoever but I can apply logical thought quite well. And the financial logic of what has transpired since the sale tells me that the money borrowed [even using Jack S's figures] plus the extra over increased revenues [£165 million] has significantly exceeded the extra over costs [including interest payments and additional wages etc] during the same period.
In my ham fisted approach I get this to around £60 million.
But - I'm not interested in precision. I'm just intersted in the principles governing - determining if you like - the actions of G& particularly H.
I think the figures are configurated to confuse you all no matter how good you all might be in interpreting accounts. I remain convinced there is no break even here but rather a significant amount that has been taken out. If you discount the accounts interpretation and think purely about the logic of it, I think all of you will be forced to agree.
Neither JS nor Manila nor Xerxes 1 nor Titch nor your goodself nor in his fleeting posts TTNBD have come remotely close to dispelling my 'logic based' conviction on this with their attempts at interpreting figures which do not tell them the full story.
I ask - once you have accounted for interst payments and additional wages - where has the rest of the money borrowed and earned since they arrived gone?
