Went up with the fourth lowest wage bill in the Championship. Many players received new contracts the following season but we still had the lowest wage bill in the top flight, arguably still lower than some Championship clubs. On being relegated players all had pay cuts inserted in their contracts, so we can't blame the wage bill for the disappearing money either. It's not like we were paying out win bonuses and goal bonuses either! We saved a fortune on those.We've just sold another of our crown jewels for £24 million, on the premise that we couldn't buy until we sold. It now seems we are shopping in the clearance aisle (Guardioura), so what makes you think the Prince will give Slav the £10 million should we get that? We've had 2 years premier league money, a £45 million parachute payment, and £24 million for Ramsdale, and we seemingly still don't have a pot to piss in. Something not right for me.
