I am interesred in the financial state of the club. From your postings last year you gave the impression that you had some expertise in this area. Could you then bend your brain around the following queries please? ( most relate to this current season except where specified) a)How much will we owe iyo on the new stand at the end of the season? b)What is the projected income for the club from season tickets, gate receipts,catering,T.V.,shops? Have I missed anything? c)If we finish in a CL position which of these guarrantees us the 10 million? Is there such a sum for the UEFA cup and what is it? d)Do you have any idea what our outgoings are? e)When and how much will we as a club receive for Tv rights next season? f)What is the current situation with NTL?

If you can answer some or all of these it is NOT a matter of life or death. Thanks for your time.

Hi Spence. As a life-long fan and smallish shareholder who has lost a few grand on NUFC shares, I have taken an interest in the company's financial affairs, as publicly disclosed.

I'll try to provide some of the information you request when I get a quiet half hour.

I may simply transmit some extracts from the most recent Annual Report - you can of course readily access a copy of this yourself and study the full details.

If the e-mail addy on your post is not legit, perhaps you would e-mail me an accurate one.
