Just reading last years accounts, £6.7m from commercial revenue doesn't seem a lot, hence RK saying this is an area in need of development. Kind of illustrates how important a rich benefactor has been and is maybe a reality check for the Cortese lemmings expecting champions league football?
I'd like to compare our commercial revenue with say Newcastle's or even Sunderland's. I recon both sell a lotta shirts get big crowds and have wealthy benefactors.
One looks certain to be playing championship football next year and the other is owned by a man the supporters hate.
Why can't we just be happy and not get ahead of ourselves?

Not a transfer rumour, but apparently there have been discussions of saints having a preseason friendly against Real Madrid this summer. With Real doing a repeat of the Bournemouth friendly from last summer prior to this.

Personally would love this to be true and does fit in with the Bournemouth/Real Madrid board room connections. Would be nice to welcome Bale back to the club and get us some acknowledgement in spain.

We only need to much acknowledgement abroad however
