My Sestao board are rather thrilled as well.

It could be that they expected us to get relegated for the nth time and I still manage to keep them top half for the 2nd season in a row.

I had a chairman whom I owed 75k per month.

He never asked for a sacrifice to ease the payments, but, occasionally put 200k into the club.

Same chairman wouldnt allow anyincreasing of the wage structure!

Point being: If he can afford to inject cash to a club to keep it afloat why the hell doesnt he refuse his 75k per month and allow extra wages?

General question.

Do all CEOs expect a return on their money?

I'm trying, but failing, to understand that and coffee isn't helping. I think you're indicating that you're paying off a loan at 75k per month (and here's the puzzler) to the chairman.

I've never heard - in FM/CM at least - of a club owing money to its' chairman, so I can only guess you've got it a tad confused.

I'm prepared to be wrong, however, if you're certain.

There are a number of clubs in FM and in RL who have loans from the board. A number of clubs especially in Germany who are paying big sums of money to the board from the start of the game.

CEO's expect return on their money, football is a business, and a difficult one at that one at that. You could make millions and get no silverware and fail, you could win lots and go bust!! Harsh but fair.

That sounds a little counter-intuitive to me, but then again I suppose there's a reason I've got a £1500 overdraft limit.
