He calls one of us a prick and we still don't bar him.
That, my friends, is Civilisation. Not seen in Croydon since I last drove through it on the way to Ikea.

Where did I say the 80% is unsustainable, or even refer to it? Take that debate up directly with whichever NSC member made that judgement. If it was on this thread, you can do that for us all to see.
My point is a separate view, backed by Company Law, Insolvency Law and football authority rules. That clubs that met FFP rules in the EFL whilst for a number of seasons incurring accounts losses due to payroll costs exceeding income, bankrolled by owners, have kept within the law and not harmed any entity or person.
In contrast to a company's insolvency, which harms a lot of people and the public.

I might have this wrong but the year you've cherry picked includes the bonuses paid to every single member of Albion staff from canteen to boardroom for achieving promotion.
Maybe look closer to the top of the chart for a cautionary tale on running an unsustainable wage bill.
You are a hard man to avoid, but it's well worth the effort.

I never said you did, in fact you quoted me.

Your wage bill + player amortisation is more than your turnover.
In the Premier League.
No other club did this in the 2017 reported accounts, in the Premier League.
Championship figures are completely irrelevant as almost every club makes a loss. Some within the rules (like us) and some not.
Why is it so impossible for you to look at facts before embarrassing yourself by posting nonsense?
Your club is losing money despite £100m+ income from TV companies. Your £12m "profit" was from £30m+ player sales and £4m from that **** Pulis (deservedly so, he tried to **** you over and failed).
Without that, you lost money. The only PL club to be in that situation.
So yes, it's unsustainable. Simple really.

Sadly can't view the TV show as outside UK, but the podcast was a good listen
