Shame he didn’t decide to spend that money at the start of this season isn’t it?

You DID see how Hurst spent the money he generated in the summer, right?
Now, there's a stronger argument for letting Mick have a few more quid... |  |

Probably for the best given that Hurst would be bankrolling new stands/dressing rooms for League 2 and National League sides in exchange for isolated strikers, defensive midfielders and right backs. |  | | |

Oh, and Tilt. What did B'pool want for him £1M ? Talk about a kid in a sweet shop. |  | | |

How far would £5-6m have really gone in todays market? Plus with Hurst spending that money I doubt it would have gone to good use. |  | | |

No. It is perfectly acceptable to demand that Evans spends even more of his own money than he already does. And call him nasty names if he doesn't |  |

Difference is I’m not the owner so I haven’t voluntarily chosen to take on the duty and responsibity of investing in the club. | | | |

Pukki was a free transfer! Bargains out there if you know where to look! | | | |

How much of an owners own money must be invested for you to consider that he should not be called nasty names? | |

We had a manager that used to be able to find them last season. People wanted him gone. | |

No, that is silly.
We will not keep the same budget if we are relegated, with Evans making up the £7m loss of TV money.
We will simply scale back our budget to that of other L1 clubs. | | | |

That is any 'Owners' choice and calculated risk isn't it?
How many on this forum thought, at the time, P Hurst was going to be the answer to long unanswered prayers? | | | |

Why don't you get a pro managers licence before commenting here then by that logic?
This is literally the most moronic response to supporters criticising the owner. Come on then, tell us in detail why you think Marcus Evans has been a success here or are you just another tool? |  |

Poor Marcus, it's our fault he bought the club. Can you please let us know why you think he's done so well as owner?
Do you believe his spending plan has been adequate? If so why are we not able to compete?
Why do you attack supporters? | |

You mean the £9 Million wasn't enough investment on top of the £6 mill he'd already put in in the summer? |  |

No choice but to scale back.
League 1 has a rule that says wages cannot be any more than 60% of turnover.
Now apparently our wage bill has been around 16 to 18 million recently at or above 100% of turnover.
Using those figures means new wage budget on current turnover would be around 9 to 10 million, now take off the lost 5 million to revenue and you are looking at a wage budget of about 7 to 8 million mext season supposing all other revenues in stay the same.
So interesting questions around season ticket prices, tying up wage budget on experienced older players Chambers Skuse Bart, Judge Jonas, mean any players on 20k a week is 1 million of your budget in 1 go. Can't afford many of them.
We could boost turnover by selling Bart or Dozz or anyone someone makes a bid for. |  | | |

Apparently the average wage for League One is £2000 a week. So I would imagine that if as has been hinted by ME that contracts contain clauses so that wages would presumably fall roughly in line with those of other clubs then some players are going to take quite a hit. | | | |

All Town contracts according to the EADT have a relegation clause with most dropping by 50% if we get relegated. | | | |

That will be fantastic if true. Ok, players will still want to move if they get an offer to stay in the Championship on more money. But to not HAVE to sell players simply because they're no longer affordable will put us in a much stronger position than we would be without such clauses. | |

I've heard the relegation clause bit, but not the 50% drop. Where has this been written? |  |

It was on one of the recent Kings of Anglia podcasts, the other plus is that any player under 21 and that comes through your academy their wages do not count against any FFP rules. | | | |
