Because they have more money than us, and Wayne always goes for the money, as some bluebirds have said
Decent squad player not convinced we should be selling, but good signing for you guys if you get him.
So Leicester in the Championship has more money than us now that we're in the Prem? Fat load of good it's done them the last couple of seasons.
they were bought last year, and have spent over £5m on a player already, so it looks like a serious effort to promotion this season coming http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...t-Thai-businessman-Aiyawatt-Raksriaksorn.html
Plus, they're willing to spend silly money on wages, and we're not. There'll probably be players from five or six clubs in the Championship next season with wages higher than our highest earners.
they will be a bit knackered if they don't go up though, as the 2012/3 season will see the new rules coming in about about wages to linked to income, its 65% for the championship I think.
Indeed. At least you're guaranteed success if you load a Championship team with overpaid journeymen! Hang on, that's not right...
