Plenty of Aston Villa fans have been reacting to the club’s end of year financial accounts on social media.
Villa shared the report on their official Twitter page on Friday afternoon, 24 hours before the 2-1 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield.
The club announced a financial loss of £99.2m during the pandemic hit 2019/20 season. £36.1m of missed revenue was announced, with fans being absent from Villa Park for more than 12 months.
Dean Smith’s side saved themselves from relegation on the final day of the previous campaign, and that achievement of another season of Premier League football now looks to be a crucial one.
The club spent more than £88m during the 2020/21 season, with Villa comfortably avoiding any relegation battle this time around.
