2014 League One Champions?

They can pay 60% of their turnover which will be huge given that they are still getting parachute payments. Hence their resources will far outweigh anyone else's in the division.

but if they got Wilson in they would fail and fall short.

Wolves - on the one hand they look as though they will be miles in front of everyone else in terms of income. On the other they look like a Portsmouth waiting to happen.

Wolves income is about the same as ours, but then they have £16m in parachute payments. However thay have a wage bill of about £30m a year. Doesn't need a degree in Maths to work out they need to seriously trim that wage bill. And if you're there as a player with 2 years left on a contract at £15k a week who is going to buy you after successive relegations?

A squad full of players you can't get rid of, who don't want to be there and think they're better than they actually are. Unable to sign anyone and having sanctions dangled over your head because you are still not complying with the 60% ruling, with a possible points deduction down the line after that.

Could be a tough season for them I reckon

We would if we had the money!!
SUFC love a poor deal.

Wolves' turnover is enormous. They will of course have to cut their cloth but they will be fine.

Edit- Darren beat me too it.

Anyway blt, what's your United prediction? 120 points and both cups? United to go up in 2013-4 because we went up in 1983-4?

Next season to be like the year we went up with Leeds.
Two clubs running away with it; us trying to keep up with Wolves.

Come on its going to be Uniteds time to shine ..... I wish

The way things are going at the club I think we are more likely to finish in the bottom 10 of league 1 next season

 

[KenMcnaughtsNuts]

people voting for us are seriously deluded. who said were a miserable bunch??

wolves will almost certainly be up there, could go either way my jacksy.
peterborough will be there if they keep their manager.
brentford will be there if they keep their manager.

the rest will be a bit of a dogs dinner like this season

Note:

That was under McCall

Only hope now would be someone with experience like Jacket.

Starting a freshman because he'd take on the shit will be a disaster.

Hope has gone on holiday - for how long?

I've decided to part with my pessimism from recent years and actually say we'll win the league.

I think McCall will be appointed manager, he'll make some good cheap signings and clear out a bit of the rubbish. He may even get the best out of some players that I've long written off.

I need a lie down.

I would like to retract this post thankyou.

 

[Grecian2000]

Just had a look at who's voted for us. Oddly enough it ends with "Living in a fantasy world". Is this a punter or a comment?

When we were relegated we were granted exemption from FFP for the first season to allow existing contracts to be honored. I would guess that Wolves would get the same leeway even if there wages exceeded the salary cap.
