I’m all over the place with these financial results and Levy’s bonus.
Every rabid ENIC Out poster on here wanted Levy to remove himself from football operations and he has appeared to do so, at least to an extent. Therefore, any bonus he is awarded probably shouldn’t reflect the on pitch performance and should be awarded for the fiscal performance instead.
Whilst we have increased revenue massively, we have also posted a big loss. So, does Levy get his bonus because of the revenue, or should he lose it because of the loss? Does he get more of a bonus if we had not signed players and made a profit? Which would have lead to a worse on pitch performance.
Are we still holding the like of Bloom at Brighton up as a guy who “does it right”? Selling loads of their best players, making massive profits and using a decent percentage of these profits to pay back owner loans? Even though a few of the ENIC Outers said he was putting his own money in and wouldn’t be taking it back?
It’s a fine line here, as our huge revenue is down to Levy. And we need to make reasonable losses to keep up on the pitch. So should Levy ever get a bonus? I’ve no clue.
Does seem to me that he already makes a handsome salary and as part owner of the club, he’s got a nice nest egg there too. At the very least, we need a new PR company to point out that the timing of a lot of our announcements sucks. Don’t be announcing increased prices and restrictions on concessions a short period before announcing a massive bonus to Levy.
The club does seem very amateurish when it comes to this kind of thing.
