Referees ain't cheap...That £408m is net debt, which is gross debt minus cash at bank. One reason it's gone up is because they'll have less cash now than they had in June. The other reason is that the debt is in dollars and as the pound has gone down v the dollar, the sterling value of the debt goes up. Their actual gross debt is now probably heading towards about £600m based on relative exchange rates.
LOL.Referees ain't cheap...

BBC article has now been changed to include reference to the debt increasing but still leaves the question as to why it wasn't there in the first place.
Since the BBC moved to Salford it's become more Raggish than ever.
Each club would lose an average of about £15-20m a season if you're talking about a 3 year deal, it wouldn't kill any of the larger clubs (and the smaller ones like Burnley/Bournemouth seem to be more cautious with costs) but it would restrict spending - that's enough money for each club to fund a KDB-size deal.Lets say the next tv deal drops by a billion how would this effect all the clubs who budget to the tv money?

And Celtic haven't lost in 24 league games this season so is this 'magical, best in Europe, unbeaten run', in all competitions or just the league? Either way it's re-writing history to suit a narrative their idiotic masses will lap up.
They can absorb it into the existing profit margin though - hence while it might slow their spending, it's not going to be the straw that breaks the camels back.15-20m for a club in debt and that debt rising its an awful lot of money.
They won 27 consecutive games, I'd hardly mention them in the same breath as that Ajax team though.And didn't TNS beat some record set by Ajax ?

Fair enough, they wouldn't be that far off the rags tbf. ;)It wasn't a comparison, it was a reply to United's amazing unbeaten run.
I know nothing about high finance (or even low finance for that matter!), but if all that translates as 'trouble-ahead-for-the-verminous-bastards-at-the-swamp' then I am overjoyed. If it doesn't, tell me something else that will cause the scum serious problems (financial or otherwise) because Joy and I like being Over.
The Rags debt is in the US and is in $. They are generating £ and using it to pay off $ debt. The exchange rate fall is making it harder for them to pay their debts. This will be hurting them bad!
