The PFA wouldn't take very kindly to that
Ah, the gravy train.

Genuine question. Would you be happy to have ambitions of (say) finishing 14th in this division next season, or pay a bit more and go for the play-offs?
Pay less and go for the play-offs.
Fair enough, you want more job losses then.
No. Where did you get that idea from?

Catch 22.
We are losing circa 8 million quid a year so need to cut costs as this is unsustainable, the biggest earners at the club are the players.
To plug the losses we NEED to get to the Premiership, to get to the Premiership we need the players to get there, they cost more.
Glad it isn't me making the decisions.

2 decent signings might just do it....
I am getting fed up with all the increases here and there if this answers your question.
You said you were being bled dry and wanted to pay less.
I agree, and as shown before, getting rid of 50 stewards will make a 1.5% reduction in our losses, but not even get you one player on an average salary for this division (£350,000 a year).
We have lost Bridge and (probably) Upson, so 2 decent signings on top of those two are probably needed.
On the plus side, we should have CMS and Hoskins back next season.
What increases here and there HT ?
Just over 21 nicker a game last season, a fair increase this one with the added travel cost which was not being adaquetly covered in the match ticket last campaign. Not sure where the here and there bit comes in. Grub and beer ?
Yep. TBH, I'm still worried about a striker. Leo was great when he was good, but he did go missing a few games. CMS likewise, and I'm worried about how many games it will take for him to get match fit. I'd feel happier if we had a striker who we could rely for 20-25 goals - is that either Leo or CMS? I have my doubts. Also, a LB, ofc. Hmmm, maybe 3 decent signings then?
Spend my money in pubs like Craft that deserve it.
Since they stopped The Hophead they don't get any of my hard earned other than the match ticket so I suppose I don't notice it that much. Spend my money in pubs like Craft that deserve it.
At the risk of sounding like an Uber Fan, which i'm not, I do make a point of spending some money at The Amex, Tony Deserves it.
Good point. I just seems wrong that supporters are being bled dry and staff are losing their jobs all so we can allow very average players to live a life of luxury beyond their wildest dreams.
