My main mam James Lawrence Alcott has done his 10,000 simulations of the Premier League season. There's a couple where Man United get relegated, and I think it was 50 where we win the PL. 

 

Be nice if we could combine one of those two sims. 

Just don't predict either, please.

So that makes it a 9 year contract?

[Toonpack 9165]

So if a player signs a contract extension, does their amortisation amount recalculate for the longer term ???

[Gemmill 44245]

They'll have a book value at the point that the extension is negotiated. That book value should be amortised across the remaining (extended) contract length. 

 

That's how I assume it will work. 

 

So, buy a player for £100m on a 5 year deal, that's a £20m amortisation charge per year. 

 

If at the end of 2 years, you extend their contract by 2 years, you have:

 

Book value: £60m (£100m minus 2 x £20m annual amortisation charge) 

 

Newly extended contract length: 5 years (original 3 plus 2 year extension) 

 

New annual amortisation charge: £12m per year for the next 5 years.

That's some mighty fine maths right there.

 

Pity that contracts can only be amortised across five years so none of it matters in Palmer's case.

[Gemmill 44245]

What would you know of fine maths?! 

[The Fish 10681]

Bear in mind he signed a 7yr deal and, as I understand it, the amortisation goes across 5yrs. So his £42.5m fee is spread across those 5yrs, not 7, and certainly not these extra 2 years. 

 

The fee was £42.5m (£8.5m p.a.), less the year he's served there leaves £34m, so the yearly commitment drops to £6.8m.

Ewerk finished first.

Did you miss those words? How I responded is how a normal contractual situation works but I because don't memorise all the PL's stupid rule changes, I might have messed up. 

 

However. The most instructive thing here is that I clearly could have told you FUCKING ANYTHING and you would have believed it. 

 

So THAT'S INTERESTING.

The same way players who go to Liverpool develop asthma.
