I read somewhere that we have a lost of 3 Mill € in the first quartal this season!!
I have read it myself in an article. This is about the ethics of commentators, an item usually for sale at your closest Pick'n Save store. :groan:
In general terms I recommend reading "How to Lie with Statistics" by Durrel Huff, originally published 1954 (YES), you can find this classic at Amazon.
The news commentator I read did not mention:
a. often first quarter results of a club end with a net loss, because they include transfer payments.
b. last year first quarter by Juventus included a net loss of 14,9M€, so we are doing better than last year.
