Looks like promotion or bust for the Derby owner.
Expensive business sloshing around in this league without the Sky money.

Yes FM, we must be losing a lot more than that I would imagine?
We're on less than 55% of last years revenue but we've only really shifted Shaqiri and Crouch of any major consequence off the wage bill. We're subbing the wages of high salary loan players like Imbula, Ndiaye and Wimmer.
Mean time we shot £65 million on Ince, Afobe, Clucas, Baart, Vokes and Woods while adding them to a burgeoning wage bill.
Next season parachute payments are 45% and then 20% and then gone. To add some context to that average media rights revenue in the Championship is £6m for the season.
We do really need to escape from the financial hell hole of the Championship or completely downscale the operation.
We don't seem able to do either.

Would we get to keep the comb that two underperforming bald men would be fighting over in this battle?!

Once the parachute money goes, every non-promotion season is like a hefty kick to the balls! |

I’m looking forward to Derby away. Tickets purchased and hopefully we can ruin their season, despite ours being a sack of shit.
Hello schadenfreude, how are you?!

I'd love that personally, I'd just like us to finish the season on play-off form, not necessarily in them.

As a club Stoke will have a big say in the chase for promotion this season, but unfortunately I doubt we will be in the chase ourselves ! We still have games against most of the pacesetters so what better opportunity to raise the fans morale and gain some momentum going into the close season by turning a few opponents over ?

They are both absolutely shite.
As were United and Wednesday last night in fairness.
Reece James looks quality for Wigan. Proper athlete.

Once the parachute money goes, every non-promotion season is like a hefty kick to the balls! I hadn't seen that 50% figure, is it even remotely plausible? Good news if it is ! Hard to know really, isn't it? But there seems to be enough noise around about big cuts to suggest we've actually been pretty shrewd for once. And Nixon was suggesting that there is even a further wave of reductions to come this summer, presumably for the Rowett signings? www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2018/04/27/southampton-stoke-west-brom-face-reality-relegation-will-mean/Stoke are understood to have installed pay reductions of around 30-40% into the contracts of their players if the club suffers relegation. www.stokesentinel.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/stoke-city-jack-butland-contract-1750391Jack Butland took a whopping 50 per cent pay cut following Stoke City's relegation, The Sentinel can reveal.
And it is believed that most of his team-mates have probably suffered a similar drop in wages following the loss of their Premier League status.

Although that’s what’s reported I’ve heard from a reliable source that Butland as well as Allen, Shawcross and Bauer are all on their premier league money. Hence they are the ones the clubs wants to get rid of in the summer... |

Due to the fantastic commitment of the owners , I’m not sure the actual numbers are the primary issue as opposed to managing the FFP regulations , Led to believe £39m is the maximum permitted loss so we are going to need some clever accounting over the next two years .

I wonder. If England's #2 or #3 keeper in the prime of his career has just sat back without a murmur while his wages were slashed in half then fair play to him . I thought he would have gone anywhere, I mean anywhere to avoid that. He did fire his agent once the dust had settled but, good heavens, that's quite a call and another season to come living hand to mouth unless he gets a summer move! |
