Club Costs

What do you guys think the running costs of the club should be?

My thoughts are:-

At the moment we seem to have a squad of 31 including the young players we have just signed. So I would think about 1.6 million a year maximum. Waddock and his team 3-400K? So 2 - 2.5 milllion for the playing staff and developement. It cannot cost more than 1 - 1.5 million to run the ground and pay for maintenance. So all up 4 million. If you take out Wasps 'contribution' of 800K then we would still have made a small profit.

 

you are forgetting the wasps office staff there are loads of them

 

The point is to look at our club as if it were a stand alone business.

 

Don't you mean swarms Rocky?

 

i think in general we have far too many office staff we are a lower league club but steve hayes seems to want everything done premiership style.the one thing i was thinking about this morning about our expenses was the away games i am not too sure if we always stay in hotels before the long away games because that cant be cheap.
