Through your experiences, can you provide different ways of making money and boost a club's financial position?

by far:

playing friendlies against well know clubs (like Barcelona and so on.)

Perhaps selling players with a percentage clause when club B sells to club C, you can get some money from it.

I love starting unemployed and therefore need some tricks to boost the finances of a club in the lower leagues!

Re-negotiate contracts of the players you have...thus lowering your wage bill

[QUOTE]

Barcelona always reject if you are a lower league club but their B team and Reals Castilla always seem to accept and you still get a sizable sum from playing them, more so than an EPL reserve team.

Re Negotiate contracts.

It is often worth selling your most valuable player, theres often a free transfer waiting to take his place.

As a lower league club, I sold a player to a top top side with a clause giving me £30 million when he earned his first cap.

Five years on and I'm stuggling in the Championship. BINGO! BIG buys in the January sales and I'm well set up :cool:

Nice one. I hadn't thought of doing that. Just think what I can do with £30M at Padova. :thup:

Try getting a Parent club who not only will pay a sum of money each year but might also loan you players which could help you progress through the leagues.

The best way is to arrange friendlies for your reserve team against Barcelona B team every third day. You get the money while your first team players don't get depressed for losing... You can make outrageous sums of money every season like this... but it smells like cheating.
