The players, although shown not to be good enough for the premier league, will think that they are too good for the championship. Not too sure many of them playing tonight will be playing for us next season.
Still hoping that we can pick up some valuable points before the end of March. But if we do go down it will be very difficult to bounce back straight away.
Well worth a read of the FFP rules in the Premier League/Championship. As a club over a three year period we could make losses of up to £80-90 million dating back over 3 seasons if we were to go down. As far as I know, I think we've always ran at a profit to ensure we have this advantage if we were to go down (looking likelier by the game!)
The parachute payments we'd receive after being in the PL for quite a while would also be substantial, so I think we could see Lai and co gambling on reinvesting on a huge scale on the squad. We'd have the advantage financially over many clubs from the get go and should be in a better position to challenge to get back up.
Let's be honest, Wolves have made the league look piss easy and they have 3-4 really good players and the rest are your average Championship type players. We just need to make sure the right players are brought in and the right ones sold for decent money.
