    Essentially, Levy got his bonus because he does things like increase the ticket prices. His performance and compensation is based on making money. If the club made an 'unacceptable' loss he wouldn't get a bonus.

      Well they just posted a loss of just less than £87 million, compared to the £50 million loss on the previous years financial statement. I know there are other considerations like developments and a large chunk of the loss being depreciation etc which isn't counted towards ffp but regardless they have run at a loss and an increasing one.

      But your company put the price up on the price of it's product.
      Would you say. No i don't want my bonus. Just don't put the price up?

    The sad thing is that bonus is for the season he employed 4 different managers and the club didn't qualify for Europe for the first time in years. They then bump the prices up, place more games in higher categories and remove concession tickets in the days before this bonus becomes public, and the amount estimated to be raised by the increase in ticket prices is virtually the amount he received as a bonus. It is not a good look.
