Interesting with wages being a far bigger deal than transfer fees these days.
Shame these things are always a year out of date so any conclusions need to relate to the season before the one which ended in May.

Swansea seem to be a very well run club on the pitch and behind the scenes with those figures and their football/achievements

It also shows we've been finishing pretty much where we should, 13 highest spend equaled 14th for the year 2011/2012.

Why are Sunderland the only club referred to by their unofficial nickname? Is it from a Sunderland board?

well this isnt too new is it, wolves and blackburn.. And I doubt many of the Villa kids are on £41k a week! Bent, N'Zogbia and maybe Agbonlahor and Ireland will be on a fair bit but the rest will be on small wages, you'd have thought. |

You ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until the new TV contracts kick in. It is estimated that 80% of the extra £25m each club receive will be paid in wages to players. In the meantime fans continue to have to pay outrageous ticket prices. There has to be some kind of protest from fans but don't know what because loss of gate money will mean very little to most clubs. I just keep hoping that the Sky bubble bursts and payers suddenly have to enter the real world. www.managementtoday.co.uk/news/1185306/ |

This although is far more realistic (although out of date) than the '100m we've blown' that gets rolled out all the time.
Suprised me we're not that far from 8th though.

That Manchester City figure is insane when you consider some of the shite they've signed over the past few years.

28k average with all the shite we've got in the team is piss poor.
For every good player we've got 2 shit. I would therefore have expected around 20-25k average if you consider our top earners are on around 40 to 50k per week...and there aren't many of them.

What does our average shoot up to when you factor in the money we've dumped onto fees to 'hide' the real wage figures?

I just keep hoping that the Sky bubble bursts and payers suddenly have to enter the real world. www.managementtoday.co.uk/news/1185306/i thought the new rules governing sustainability of clubs and expenditure were brought in to make sure that's exactly what won't happen? i was under the impression that there were limits being brought in as to how much they could increase expenditure by meaning that no club will/can suddenly leap from £5mill wages (Man City) to £20 mill |
