John Lundstrum on 13:14 - Apr 19 by ElderGrizzly | We are going to have to pay some eye-watering salaries when/if we go up. If you think Norwich were (sort of) prudent and they were spending £50m+ on wages in the PL, which is 3x where we are now. |
Norwich spent £118M overall on wages in their 21/22 PL season, plus a net spend of £22M in transfer fees (£55M spent on arrivals, albeit amortised in their accounts, with Buendia sold for £33M). They were a parachute club with £62M wages in 20/21 though, so building from a higher base than us. |  |
