Any side gambling with the parachute payments generally has backers prepared to make up the cashflow shortfall. Our owners either can't or won't.So what's the difference between our parachute payments and the ones that are supposed to give ex PL teams a big advantage over non ex PL teams in the Champ.?
The £40m probably isn't required to be bridged through sales, it'll be a combination of sales and reduced wagebill by shifting off higher earners and replacing them with lower earners. Ramsdale brings in £24-30m in fees plus £1.5m wagebill reduction; releasing Jags, Lundstram, Bryan and Rodwell probably frees up another £2m of wages. Leaves £5-10m to find, hence toting all the strikers and reserve left-backs around.
