Osbourn, Cash, Worrall are Academy graduates so we get 100% of cash this year to spend for FFP
We get 100% of the cash from sales allocated to the current years accounts regardless.
The rule of thumb on this is all sales are registered in the current years accounts and all purchases are spread over the length of the players contract.
Incoming transfers are amortised over the length of the players contract - a player costing 5m with a 5 year contract means 1m is allocated to the accounts for each of the 5 years - all incoming transfers are registered in the accounts in that manner.
Not 100% true, we get 100% of the sale minus remaining amortisation. So hypothetically if we sold grabban for 6mil (what we paid?) and he’s on a 4 year deal say we’d only see 1.5 mil in the accounts as accounting profit.
Whereas selling an academy player means 100% accounting profit as we paid nothing for them, I think that’s what was meant.
