Rangers in line to face long-term sustainability issues amid recent £11m development
Rangers recently revealed an operating cost increase of £11million with the profit only being £252,000, something that could have long-term ramifications.
While financial volatility is considered normal in football, the increased operating costs for Rangers, as acknowledged by finance expert Dan Plumley, could pose challenges for the club in the future.
The dependence on factors like sporting performance, transfer activities, and European competition introduces a level of unpredictability, impacting the financial stability of Rangers.
Plumley emphasises the pressure on the club to maintain high standards, especially after successful Europa League runs, which leads to increased investment in players and managerial staff.
This heightened expenditure can contribute to fluctuating figures, potentially straining the club’s financial health.
With the nature of Scottish football presenting uncertainties in European qualification, the lack of guaranteed access to lucrative tournaments like the Champions League adds an element of risk.
Rangers may face difficulties in sustaining consistent financial success, as the broader picture suggests a delicate balance between achievements on the pitch and financial stability.
While not an immediate concern, the long-term implications of financial fluctuations underscore the challenges Rangers might encounter in maintaining a robust financial position amid the competitive and unpredictable landscape of football finance.
Gers have been down on the path of sustainability and being self-sufficient, so things behind the scenes need improving quickly.
