Surprised this has gone under the radar a bit, but the club provided an update last week on financial matters:

https://darlingtonfc.co.uk/news/post-ye ... -statement

-Net profit made for 20/21, slightly higher than £14,045 last year.

-Net cash has improved on from 19/20.

-The £64,800 loan from the DCMS is a low interest (fixed-rate) loan over 20 years.

-826 season tickets purchased (including 500 Club members) up to 15th July.

-Club have managed to pay-off fans loans within the year (these amounted to £37,337 in the 19/20 accounts).

-Loss expected for 21/22.

All in all, really positive. Club have managed to navigate during a really difficult period (cup runs helped) and reduce debt/increase cash in the bank.

I for one think Rishi is doing an excellent job. Can you imagine if we still had Cameron and Osborne in charge with their austerity will cure everything belief. Even worse if it was Corbyn and McDonald !

Rishi might be doing a good job, but he won't make a profit this year

I think you comment is "Old school economics." The Gov have borrowed more than any other Gov haven't they? Don't think they can just print money anymore. Money they borrowed has to be paid back by future generations!

Who did they borrow it fromImage The Bank of England. In other words themselves so how would they go about paying this back? Genuinely interested to know the answer.

Sunak is not doing a good job. He is fiscally illiterate.

You assert that Sinai is not doing a good job after showing you don’t have the faintest knowledge of economics. Hm not a very convincing argument.

Try this which although written nearly 2 years ago still holds true. My friend is a Professor of Economics and has confirmed this......end of discussion for now.

That article refers to the government borrowing money from financial institutions. The government did not borrow any money, ok just 20 billion to pay for COVID. They created new money. Only the government can do this.

Agreed, all I wanted to do was to congratulate our management team in guiding us successfully through a financial minefield of a season & end it with a quip. Instead I stirred up a bigger sh!tstorm than Dominic Cummings - sorry 🤐

Back on thread the Club management have done a great job thanks. I am reassured about the future. You would have to be a TIT to have posted on here with your Political views and not once referred to this.

bga you were the one who said my friend is a Professor of Economics like that somehow elevated you to the top of the class. For every Economist that says the Government are following the wrong strategy there will be others who say they are correct. A lot will likely depend on the political leanings of your friend the Prof but to take the word of one person without looking at the bigger picture is not wise.
For the record I am very grateful to Andrew Stockdale for the way he has managed the club’s financial affairs through these difficult times.

To be honest I was not trying to "elevate myself". I was merely trying to correct the earlier post that suggested the Gov simply printed their own money which is not 100% accurate as I think any Economist would agree. Of course these experts will disagree on how much to borrow or how much money to print. Glad we agree about the good work the Board are doing. We move on.

:thumbup: Hoping to get to Stream the game on Saturday. I guess it is not yet possible to have both a Virtual 50/50 draw and one for the fans who actually attend unless you actually have two draws? I will ask the Club.
