Mid Sussex Royal Fezza PieEater So are we in trouble after having failed to sell anyone during this transfer window?
I got the impression we needed to in order to pay wages AND the 125% wages.
Didn’t we sell Puscas for £4 million and a youngster for £1 million?
We also had 4 home games in Aug
Yes. Although the majority of home attendance comes from ST sales which happened a couple of months ago. As did both of those transfers. So very little of that is recent revenue and was available when we couldn't pay our tax bill two months running. Similarly I think the TV money gets front loaded pre-season too.
On the other hand August will be a far lower wage bill than July.
Our squad is pretty big again. Though young and mostly on new contracts. There are plenty of good L1 players in it.
I would not be at all confident that we can pay the bills and cover the 125% of wages that need to go into a separate account.
