I don't think all money go to Real Madrid.

 

That's not even close to what 345K shirts would bring in so that 20m number could be pretty close to accurate. Either way, they're making their investment back at a ridiculous pace.

Happy days for me! Spurs signed both Vorm and Davies, who looked really good in his first stint in Toronto. Takes care of two needs, and offloaded Siggy to Swansea, which lightens our midfield.

The Toronto game made it blatantly obvious that we need to offload Dawson and find another CB. I'd still like to see us pick another clinical striker, but Lamella coming good would help alleviate the concern in the front three. Our defense should be the focal point though, even though Verts is still out of preseason due to the WC duty.

 

At times, we looked very porous.

20m divide by 375k will equal to 58 pounds or $100.  That's how much jersey cost not how much club makes.  Big difference.  Adidas pays Real Madrid 26m pounds a year and they own a right to sale  Real Madrid brand merchandise plus supply the team with all needs in return.  Adidas sales Real Madrid stuff and gets about 85% of all profits.  In average, large European clubs make only 9 pounds per shirt.  So, multiple 10 pounds by 375k and u got 3.38m pounds.  Not even half a James annual salary.

 

Do you honestly think sports clubs get 100% of profits from jersey sales? LOL!  Sponsors like Nike and Adidas get their money back from jersey sales.  That's why Nike dumped Manchester United because Manchester does not buy anyone exciting.  

 

The real winner is Adidas.  They got their money back.

 

 

For instance...  In NFL teams get only 12% of sale.

 

 

 

In a good year, a typical NFL team makes about $5 million off merchandise sales, which worldwide totaled $3.2 billion in 2006. However, because of a wacky economic scheme, the teams don’t benefit all that much, sharing only about 12% of the wholesale price of an item.

I read multiple articles that state... Oh this team sold 30 jerseys for $100 each so they made $3,000!  That's terrible reporting and person that writes these articles lacks common understanding how sports sponsorship business works.

 

If Pepsi puts Panthers logo and picture of Cam Newton on every can.... Should Pepsi give 100% of it's revenue to Carolina Panthers? Think about it.

I must have missed where I said that they get 100% back....

Multiple websites report that Real Madrid almost made all their money back on jersey sales alone, one of those website is a link you posted. They don't say it buy they clearly implying it. I said its incorrect and I showed you why it's incorrect.

I read comment section and all Real Madrid fans acting like they got James for free. That's far from reality.

I know, I know ... MLS. But New York City FC introduced Frank Lampard today and he'll join David Villa in the teams first season in 2015. I want to get tickets but they're playing in Yankee Stadium the first season or two. I'll wait til they get their soccer field built.

Nice. MLS the retirement community.

The website I linked didn't say anything about monetary value. It said 345,000 shirts were sold. That's it. There's no implying there. Whether you choose to believe the reports legitimacy/numbers accuracy is up to you.

      Greg Cosell: Bryce Young is a complimentary piece

      By amcoolio · Posted

      I hope not. 3rd-5th round QB's are historically awful. Most of the time that team is just drafting another QB in the first the following year. Look at the Saints, if they continue to suck this year they are just taking a QB. And if they do they just threw away a 2nd round pick that they just drafted. We did the same poo with Clausen, Greer, Pike, that guy we drafted a few years ago who is so irrelevant I forgot his name...  Just take a 1st round QB if Bryce isn't the answer and be prepared to live with it

      This reminds me on Madden where you create an alternate uniform and the pre-recorded voice overs talk about how hideous your uniform looks. 🤣

      Trade for a QB?

      By amcoolio · Posted

      There are people on this forum that just want to see a lot of passing yards....number go up. That's all it is, really. They are thirsting for a 350-400 yard game. The idea that Jameis Winston is going to come in and play like a star and lead us to wins is ludacris. He's the 3rd fuging string for a 2-5 team and has played horrible for years now. Sure, passing numbers will go up but you'll also get a lot of dumb plays, pick 6's, and incompletions en route to a frustrating bad offensive performance, just in a different way. I think these people are yearning for another Delhomme situation, and the odds of that happening are very very slim. It's way more likely Howell or Jameis comes in and looks like Jack Plummer or Andy Dalton did in the preseason. There just isn't that much good quarterbacking in this league right now. And if we draft another QB in the first round, there is a good chance they bust. It's not a guaranteed carrot. The reality is, as mediocre as Bryce has been, the risk of bringing someone else in in-season and releasing Bryce becuase you aren't happy with his current performance is staggeringly high. Don't want to re-up his contract and search for a solution in the offseason? Sure, I'm on board. Bryce hasn't been good enough to warrant a second contract. But It is very. very unlikely that bringing someone else in midseason is going to give this team more wins.
