    20m a season is not a generous owner

    Where do you get 20m for this season from?

    Everywhere I look it's around 80m.

    But we could be owned by Bin Salman, and he wouldn't be able to spend any more because of the PSR limits. Hence why it's important to improve revenue elsewhere, which will allow us to spend more. Annoying, unfair and a nonsense, but them's the rules now.

    (And the £20m thing is some squiffy calculations too).

    That doesn’t include wages. Sadly that is probably all we are allowed to spend.

    Doesn't include TV money, ticket sales or any other retail bits either.

    We sold a lot of players in 23/24 because we got relegated. We literally had to do that. Soon as we got promoted, we were on the spend again. If we had survived this year we'd be spending more. But alas, we are getting relegated, so we will have to sell. That isn't because Solak doesn't want to spend, please understand that. The rules prohibit it. Or do you want us to just break the rules?

    Also, Solak has invested a load into the club, for things other than just signing players. We're in a healthy financial state, because of him.
