Only seen the headline figures in Keegan's article but I always get the impression there's not a lot of spare cash floating about considering the level of revenue they generate. Last year was a funny one as they had no CL so a low base from which to compare. Also they only had 3 home games in the 3 months to 30/09/14 compared to 7 this last quarter so that would make a large part of the difference. Costs have increased by £23.5m over the quarter, which could mean nearly £100m increase over a full year. And they'll be paying the Glazers £15m a year from this year. Player amortisation will also be on the up over the next few years, which will affect their profits.Mike Keegan doing his best to big it up in the mail with lots of numbers. I wonder if he ever takes his utd pompoms off.
What is the bottom line PB, they have made the cash most expect but then most is going right to the Glazers ?

I've always thought that they're running to stand still financially and that hasn't changed.
Total revenue was £98.5m 2 years ago, compared to £123.6m this year so it's about 25% better.Never mind comparisons to last year's corresponding quarter (no CL) how does it stack up against 2 seasons ago?
