Where we have spent about a million quid on transfers, signed no quality players, have a first choice centre back who is 30 plus and his legs are shot, not won a game all season, seemingly carry no goal threat. The team performance, recruitment and squad quality is lower than I could have imagined in my worst nightmares. I was referencing the financial position and people's misinformed analysis. The 2 will interact when season tickets go on sale if something doesn't change quickly. Something doesn't seem right to me on the money front. I'm not financial wizz but I hope we spend some money in the next window.

or maybe he wouldnt have outside investment because they would scrutinise where all moneys gone and want to look at books.something doesnt add up to me šššššššššššš What a prat. We know the money came from DH. So at worst, the money would have fibre back to DH. Why would he need to hide it? He invested Ā£50m in the club, delivered prem footy vs a guaranteed income of around Ā£380m over 5 years. When we were running at a loss of about Ā£5m/year on a Ā£12m wage bill. Are you saying that (if he did) he didn't deserve his money back? im entitled to Talk about Ungrateful im entitled to my opinion i take it your one these people whod let dean take a shit on your head and thank im for it.happy clapping fool

I think Phil is asset stripping us to fund a Southport FC assault on the League. Expect to see them in the Championship by 2025. You heard it here first.

7 of us today have not been able to work out how we have spent all out first years parachute payments we showed a trading profit in the two years I the Premiership I think last year was Ā£25m we get Ā£42m this year as a parachute payment plus Ā£20m transfer funds and we are making exactly the same mistake as last year by not investing the money we have in quality players for the division we are in. Yes I am only guessing I donāt know the facts but in my opinion it looks like the DH loans have been called in as that is the only reason I can think of that leaves us with no monies from our time in the Premiership.

It was all in place everyone lost 40% of their wages. 40 per cent reduction on too much may still be too much? That is the problem, remember we went up with a wage bill of around Ā£11m and now I'd guess it is close to Ā£30m still. People think the parachute money is free to spend when its to cover the massive loss of income the club has and get to restructure the squad. Yes the wage bill has cut massively but we will have a much bigger than the club can afford. The trouble is that most clubs who come down with parachute payments gamble and massively overspend so appears its due to parachute payments when that isn't the case

Genuine question rather than a sly dig at Dean, when he bought HTFC's shares back off Davy he did say that they would be put into a trust fund to safeguard them for the club in the future - have they ?

Are we going to have the same thread every time we lose a game? The answer is the same, it doesn't matter, there's nothing we can do with the money, the transfer window is closed. Ask again in January by all means but the witch-hunt every week is really irritating. We can't buy anybody with the "premier league money", the "billing money", the "Mooy money", the season ticket money, Dean's money, Phil's Money, or an Arab Sheikh's money even if we wanted to. The only thing we can spend on now is a new manager, let's see what happens, it's been 5 days. And let's not ignore the fact that we've just shelled out on binning Winkler, Bell and Siewert, that wasn't free. Can't we bring in an out of contract full back ? Midfielder ? So there is something we can do with the 20m.

I have read and heard quotes of a 60m wage bill in our first season in the premier league.... That's equivalent to 24 players earning Ā£48,000 a week.
i understood Hogg to have had a new contract at Ā£20,000.
How therefore did we get to Ā£60m, ok we had Wagner and coaches etc but even if we had 12 players on 40k and 12 on 20k that would total Ā£37.5m so plenty for manager, coach, employees but not 22.5m.

Does the 60 include agents fees, bonuses for promotion ?

I think you have to include agents fees, coaching staff, office staff, etc. - even so, 60 million is a huge amount and really underlines the pointlessness of reaching the PL elite for clubs like us (as we are atm).

Iām not a Town fan but I was perplexed to say the least when Matt Glennon made comments on Radio Leeds the other night suggesting that Townās āfinancial cupboard was bareā.
How come? You havenāt ādone a Fulhamā , Dean Hoyle has never struck me as an asset stripper and your new owner hasnāt had time to do much at all. It just doesnāt add up.

If we get there again I think I would prefer us to go up and invest nothing and just let the championship team have a real go at it. Then come down having banked a fortune plus parachute payments then have another go with a better squad. Looks like Norwich's plan. otherwise as you say... It's Pointless reaching the premier league from a financial point of view. Clubs chasing this pot of gold are not understanding the associated increase in spend.

It's Pointless reaching the premier league from a financial point of view. Ā Clubs chasing this pot of gold are not understanding the associated increase in spend. It seems like teams turnover their squad 25% per year. (Six in six out?). When they win promotion, it seems more than that. Why then, should players achieve promotion? Money. Agents can add. Transfer fees are 50%, wages and agents fees, the other 50%. 12 million transfer fee, double it for full impact. Towns number one priority is getting the money scaled down. Squad turnover rate gives the three transfer window, accelerated plan. If a relegation blows away the special fitness and commitment requirement, how do you turn that around? Get back to having fun on the job. Find a "Warnock like" motivator, A savvy leader. Tough times ahead before this ship geta back on course.

Not being up on the length of player contracts etc, I worry that we will still have a lot of highly paid dross on our books when the parachute payments end.
I hope I'm wrong.

There's no way towns wage bill this season will be more than 30 million
So we've got 45 million coming in from parachute payments, 4 or so from tickets and commercial stuff and 20 plus so far from player sales. That's a surplus of 40 million.
The only explanation as to why we're skint is that Phil is having to use this money to purchase the club from Dean
