Last accounts (to 30 June 2013) showed turnover dropped by 17% to £3.8 million.
The FFP rules (or SCMP) in League 2 cap the wages at 55% of turnover, which would be just over £2m on that basis. If our turnover increased during the last season then it may have been a bit more - but that's the best I think we know at this stage.
if we keep our attendances up with a winning team, plus TV money from BT, I'm not sure our revenue will drop that much - plus we have the Rickie Lambert money.
I suspect we we will not pay our new recruits as much as the likes of JJ so I'm not sure that we will lose more money next season - we could even be better off.
Not a definitive answer but as nobody had replied I thought you deserved an opinion.

Latest Board Meeting Minutes:
Mr Higgs asked Mr Watola to confirm the total wage bill for 2013-14, and to give his views on the forecast losses for 2014-15.
Mr Watola replied that he had not finished his calculations on these matters, but had read some plausible numbers from a poster on the "Bristol Rovers Independent Fans' Forum". Mr Watola suggested that, for the time being, these should form the basis of next year's forecasts, in the absence of anything more tangible.
Mr Higgs agreed that this would be a sensible solution.
After a show of hands, this action was AGREED
