1.In 2017 they had losses of over 1 billion rubles. You declaring that now they are profitable after one plus year is a stretch
2.SKA earns 1 billion rubles from commercial income according to Rotenberg. The rest(according to you, it's 2,5 billion) comes from non-commercial sponsorship. And who is a main sponsor? Gazpromneft. So it is a state corporation, throwing it's money at SKA. Players salaries budget is way higher than their commercial earnings.
3.Leafs earn like 100 million USD on tickets alone.
LOL You don't need a degree to understand what profit means, right? Profit means that SKA returns more money than it spends. No matter where the money comes from. Gazprom does not lose money through SKA. It can't.
Just as Rogers with MLSE. If an enterprise is profitable the owners make money with it.
Thus:
1.I do not declare anything. You are declaring stuff of your own. I quote official sources. And if you knew a thing or two about those things, you'd know there is nothing that unusual about going from major losses to major profits or vice cersa in a year. Your argument is pretty meaningless.
2.What is that "according to Rotenberg"? There are official numbers. And income is income.
3.Thank you Captain Obvious, MLSE makes more money than SKA. But then again by your logic. They(TOR) can't even pay their overpriced superstars from their income from the gate. All is lost!
The only thing that matters is the result.
