Caught the first 2 minutes of a Jason interview on burnsy show RH ......... 1st question  was something like "what does last night's result mean to a club like Grimsby " .......... answer was means we won't lose as much money this year...

It was like Jason was reigning us in and saying we aren't sitting on a pot of transfer money


Yeah I’m sure it’s a question that will come up at the forum but JS has mentioned a few times during interviews that he and Andrew were injecting some further money into the club. Given the increased income we’ve had this season be interesting to learn what this money has been spent on. We will probably have an answer by the end of the week.

Yeah I'd definitely be interested to see the breakdown of what we're spending and losing.

This must be a record breaking year for income, even going back to the days of ITV Digital income.  From the outside looking in we haven't broke the bank on wages and there's only Hunt who we've paid any money for.  That should be massively offset by increased gates (season ticket or walk-up), transfers and cup income.  

I know there's stuff that's happened with the pitch and other bits of investment but just genuinely curious as to where it will have all gone if we're talking still about making a loss this year.

The figure quoted by Jason as being on the line for the win and the figures quoted earlier in this thread are a long way apart. I wonder who is correct.

Have people ever thought that JS doesn't want people to know that we currently have a bit of extra cash; as soon as agents/clubs know you have extra, they want their share of it and more. He's probably down playing what we have to stop being rinsed in the transfer / wages department in the summer.

Well if the club hasn’t made a few Bob this season I doubt it ever will

Either way, it’s not £200k of stolen money…

Money has probably gone on all the new staff we are employing, the extra cost of being a living wage employer and the general facilities improvements seen around the stadium and training ground.

Probably all adds up to a considerable sum.  Just another indication of the need for the new income  streams a new stadium  can generate.

I'm sure I recall JS saying, when he and AP took over the club, that they anticipated making a loss for a few seasons because of all the things that needed doing to the ground and club to make it fit for purpose. There was also the need to pay off The Leech to consider. Obviously promotion, sales of players and this cup run will have helped to off-set those losses.
