FA Targets

[eghambee]

Are they badly written or made to easily fudge?

Successfully bid to host the 2018 World Cup
does this mean they have to bid or do they have to get the finals?

Commercial/broadcast revenues increased by a substantial amount at the next review date in 2011
What is a substantial amount?

Wembley achieving an annual operating profit by 2012
By 31st December 2011? Financial year ending 2011?

the National Football Centre at Burton has finally been approved and will be up and running by 2010.
As above - open by December 31st next year?


and finally...

reaching at least the semi-finals of the 2010 World Cup or Euro 2012.
Is this the get out clause to prevent a big pay off?
If we only get to the QF in 2010 the target is gone


I'll go away now.

now they just have to do all of this...
...first and fourth option would be great to see. second and third also important, but the resulting monies must be spent wisely and not distributed further among the premiershite.
reaching the semis... cappello has one mighty job on there. it is possible, but not with this current bunch.

Those targets seem fair enough.

Other than the vague 'substantial amount' in the revenue one, they're pretty specific, though the dates one could have been written a little more clearly

reaching at least the semi-finals of the 2010 World Cup or Euro 2012.

Qualifying in the first place would be a start.
