I see your reasoning, let me putting it another way so you can see where I'm coming from.
We have circa £35 million parachute payment this season - i'm sure you agree that's correct.
we had a surplus of £17 million on transfers in Aug.
But we have had to ask Watford to give us extra payments on the Dawson transfer last week.
This indicates we have little or no money for purchases now,
I will deduct £9 million put aside (I hope) to pay for Pereira that still leaves a balance of £43 million and it looks like its all gone.
So come next season the parachute drops to circa £15 million
Can anyone explain how we run a club with £37 million less then we have now. (minus £20m para and £17m transfer surplus)
If i'm the only one who can see what's coming if we don't go up so be it.
Of course if we go up, were solvent again for a few years.
2020 the year the bubble burst
