Championship Wages League Table (FLW)

[UTB Blade]

Football League World have revealed the estimated players' wage bill for all Championship clubs this season, with ours being the fourth highest, leading to FLW slamming our use of parachute payments as "spectacularly wasted", and calling us "the Championships biggest underachievers".

As depressing as FLW's judgement of us is, it's impossible to argue with it, at the moment.

The players should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.

The wage bill might be estimated, but the fact that we have parachute payments is just that - a fact.

Do you disagree that for a club with parachute payments, a club that finished third last season, our current position at the foot of the table represents huge underachievement?

Do you disagree that a bunch of players who've spent much of the season phoning it in, instead of doing their jobs to the best of their ability, or at the very least with a modicum of competence, should be ashamed of themselves?

Next season's going to be tough. No parachute payments. Best players will likely be gone. Could be another rebuild on the horizon and unlike last summer it'll be harder to attract good talent.

We’ll definitely be in the top 6 wage spends in the league. These estimates can be wildly wrong though.

That's just the point, though, isn't it? However inaccurate the estimates are, we do have parachute payments, and we will have a higher wage bill than many in the division.

Whether or not FLW's wages estimates are correct, they are absolutely correct in saying we've seemingly wasted our parachute payments, and are hugely underachieving this season, given our shocking start to the season, and our league position.

Yes and yes.

Yes and yes.

You seriously don't think we're underachieving this season?
