Let me guess, this logic won't be allowed to be applied to a previous regime? I have said all along, even under the 'sweetshop' years, we were only top 10 at best in terms of spend, and I think we still are in the top 10-15 in terms of spend (transfer fees and wages).
Mr Lansdown formerly stated Citys wage budget is eighteen million pounds. That puts the sum outside fifteen Championship clubs. Clubs are also increasing spending to post covid levels and also spending versus projected incomes like TV revenue. Bristol Citys spending is going backwards.
