An interesting fact: we're the club that spends the 8th highest amount on wages out off any sports club in the world.

That's where the majority of those wages will be spent.

In FM2012, older guys like DVB, Tymo and Olić also have very high wages, like 100k a week.

The brand is effectively worthless, just really an indicator of how well the business is perceived.

Brand Equity is how much your "brand" name's worth. So it's essentially something that can be bought.

Tbh, I'd rather have CL #5 in the trophy cabinet than being second on the list.

But every cloud and all that...

So we made more money from losing than we did from winning, I guess. So that's nice. Especially Schalke missing out on a couple mil.

Thats probably cause we played the qualifying games

No, the whole "bonus clauses" thing that would've made us pay millions to Schalke and Hoffenheim had we won.

O yea whenwe got Neuer and Gustavo my bad....

These figures aren't what we've actually made. It's a theoretical value place against our name. Say, should we wish to sell all our image rights.

I'm talking about the bonus clauses, dude, the bonus clauses.

Adding insult to injury!

Guys I've been hearing this FFP every now and then in the recent few years ?!
When will it be implied exactly ?!
How would it affect us "to that huge extent" ?!

Lol. Again second . No more second please !!!!:smile:

There are hints of it being pushed by next season (possibly in the middle of the season) -- especially now that chelsea won the CL, and they aren't meeting the FFP.

FFP would force clubs to balance their accounting and not go into massive debt buying players and what not. It would also limit these rich billionaires from buying whoever in the hell they want and weakening everyone else. Bayern is in prime condition to meet FFP, as we never go into debt buying players, we always keep a positive balance with huge profits season over season, and we rarely spend huge amounts on individual players - as our biggest was like €30 mill. While we have seen other teams approaching huge amounts up to three times that (Real, ManU, etc.).

I really want to see this happen, as Bayern wouldn't have to change hardly anything all the while still being hugely strong. In spite of FFP we still managed to make 2 CL finals in 2 years.
