What's our wage bill?
After the recent worrying Trillion Trophy financial results I was wondering where we're heading this season and had this stab at working out first team wage bill:
4 keepers (camp 10k, Stockdale 35k, Ramos 10k, Truman 5k)
4 left backs (Pedersen 15k, grounds 15k, Kieta 10k, Seddon 5k)
2 right backs (Colin 25k, Harding, 5k)
3 centre backs (Dean 25k, Roberts 25k, Clarke salter 15k)
7 (!) Centre mids (Sunjic 15k, Bellingham 5k, mcechran 15k, gardners 1&2 45k, Davis 15k Kieftenbeld 20k
1 Right mid who's really a centre mid (Crowley 10k)
3 left mids (maghoma 15k, Montero 30k, Villabla 10k)
2 strikers (Juke 20k & Jimmy Nez 10k), 3 if we call Marabti a no.10 (10k)
Bailey & Bajrami as well (5k)
Comes to £425k a week or £22million a year - which is about same as our income.
Way better than last few seasons in terms of sustainability but still not great and almost a quarter of it is being wasted on Stockdale, Craig Gardner and sick-note Montero.
