You take a squad of 20 and that’s £125,000 a year per head on average. Some Sunderland players will be on that a month. Yep. Percentage of turnover is the only realistic way to get this into the game. Indeed. Where’s the £2.5million come from? Is it completely arbitrary? Sunderland will basically need to buy a whole new team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full case report out Monday 17th. Case report is actually shocking. The EFL was writing out to clubs telling them that Birmingham City were being told to sell players in the January window (which depressed the price) - at the same time as they were telling Wednesday to backdate a ground sale so they would not fail. It's the epitome of bias. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Quite stunned to find out that some Gas (Bristol Rovers) players were on £1,000 a week, if that's across 52 weeks then thats scandalous for a mid standard League One club, no wonder we're in trouble financially ! Think there will be a couple more Bury's before long,sadly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 All relative I suppose, 15 players on £1000-£2000 a week, we only get around 7,000 at home, £19 a head on the day, disregarding season ticket holders money already in the bank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What criteria applies for leagues to be considered important in your opinion? Is it the case that this league is unimportant to you for no other reason than you have no affiliation to any of the teams that play in it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
