Think wolves might be the most affected ,their owners are a travel company and seemed to have been struggling financially even before covidI agree with everything you’ve said. Although the is poor in terms of PL funds he did spend £60m last year which for us as a club I believe is a good amount.
The pit fall of Covid is some chairman will bridge the gap financially others won’t. The ones that don’t will end up towards bottom of the table.
So that's a no to Assombalonga. Too big a namecant find the tweet now. Think it was Andy Giddings interview with CW. Said something like we won’t be signing any big name players.
Spurs 170 million.There’s really only 3 teams in this league who can throw shed loads of money around
city / Chelsea and Liverpool
The rest are just as tightly ( financially wise stuck together )
Spurs just borrowed over 125 million due to losses due to C19
Manure will lose 50 million if they dont get champions league , and
Arsenal are really badly in debt and won’t be spending big according to there manager
I prefer our steady as she goes approach get good mid range ( for other clubs 10 to 20 million) for us top end and build for the future , to push us on to the next level ,
please for the love of god , don’t go all billy big bollox thinking we’re it when it’s only our 2nd season in the premier league ,
if we’re in the premier league in 5 years time , after banking over half a billion pounds then we can realistically think bigger and push on to the next level
Constant top 10 to 6th every season
£50 million plus whatever we make on the sale of other players.How much do you think our transfer budget is for next season?
Wilder has already said “don’t expect any marquee signings”.
Also how many first team players do you reckon we will get?
I don’t think they’ll be any big first team signings due to covid. I think we will get some cover players and only get first team starters, if we lose a big name to another team.
And VillaSpending money does not necessarily equate to being better. Ask Fulham.
I think you’re wrong about Liverpool and Man Utd in particular as Liverpool have limited funds and Man United will spend big regardless of if they make the CL, but I get your overall point.There’s really only 3 teams in this league who can throw shed loads of money around

I agree but realistically we are not competing with those 6 clubs : yet.I agree but I can also ask Man Utd / City / Chelsea / Leicester / Wolves / Tottenham and they’ll say if you keep spending money eventually you’ll get it right.
It’s easy to use an example where it implodes. But money in this division is still 90% of it all.

True, but the original point is that just throwing money at it doesn’t necessarily work.I understand the point you are making but if you take a look at the league table you will see that we are indeed competing with those clubs. Sure we have possibly over achieved this season but CWAK & the board will be striving to improve the squad & kick on from here, if you fail to prepare then you prepare to fail. We cannot stand still as it equates to going backwards, he will be telling the players they have to do better year on year, once you think you have made it things start to go wrong.

You need to check yourself
This attitude is the biggest threat to stability and progression that wilder and the club faces
Call it the Charlton effect they wanted rid of curbishley as they were sick of just surviving every year ,now look where they are
Surely you meant Colin Morris?Unfortunately the man in the know Mr RC is unavailable.

Just roll the conversation back to the first post; we can compete with Wolves and Leicester but in addition to the other 4 named it's Arsenal and Liverpool we won't be competing with - on financial grounds. Of course as we, Wolves, Leicester, Burnley have proved once you get on the pitch it's a different matter.I agree but realistically we are not competing with those 6 clubs : yet.
WSB .....that's an exotic username. Stocksbridge branch of SUFC? LOL!I see all the rumours thus far seem to be linking SUFC into recruiting either yet more midfielders or defenders. I truly hope that’s all there is, just rumours. Surely the lack of an attacking threat is much urgent? It's hard to see a team to survive in the PL without any proven goal scorer capable of shipping them in more than a handful in a season.
I thought it was no budget and no signings this window ..... every single day in January until Sander was signed and then disappear.It's Collins Morris. Sorry to be pedantic. There is a big marquee signing about to be unveiled and I can't say anything more. That's the type of guff he posted. MB. Lol!![]()

Knew it was a big wedge alright ,Spurs 170 million.![]()
We get £xxxxxx. I'll catch you one day across border in Belfast. Spoons in the centre is good fun.Knew it was a big wedge alright ,
they earn 800,000 pounds per home game , through catering
If ever your down this neck a the woods , give us a shoutWe get £xxxxxx. I'll catch you one day across border in Belfast. Spoons in the centre is good fun.![]()
I understand that to mean no chance of landing the Greek international Theodorous Giannfantissimmo Popadissolous Wankimo.I reckon around 40-50m but when he says no big name signings I understand that to mean no 15/20m players. Can see us getting 4-5 in with the budget and a loan or two

We are not going to be competing with any of the Big 6 any time soon as Spurs the poorest of those had an income of £380m/annually. (7th was Everton £180m) So as much as people want us to push the boat out it will make no significant difference to the players signed and is just jeopardising the clubs future.
