Fair enough. So the question then becomes something like is Ingram good enough to get us there or is Darlow considered to be that bit better and therefore more likely to help us get there. I honestly don't know the answer or the thinking going on around this subject.
He's a fantastic talent for a champ team, there's absolutely no denying that. Hopefully we get to see how he and Ingram fair in the PREM with us
I thought the most recent accounts would show last season's wages? I'm sure I've seen people saying that we had a top 6 wage bill this year.
Our wage bill for players is nowhere near £427k a week, I can tell you that for a fact. That figure must include staff, in which case I doubt it's correct for other teams because like hell WBA are spending less than us with Livermore, Albrighton and Adam Reach apparently on north of £40k each.
Darlow has to weigh up, which I think he already has, whether to join an EPL and maybe sit on the bench again like Newcastle, or join a progressive Championship club which I feel we are now, and get regular games. I certainly think it will be the latter.
