Isn't the amount of wages needed related to the average/median/normal wage range at the club? In which case we might not have to pay as much as Watford (it'd still be a small fortune though!)
I thought I read somewhere that it had to be top 50?
Looking at that table, I started wondering how we managed to get Tomer Hemed (Israel are at no. 82); it turns out that Hemed's mother was Polish, so he has a Polish passport. Never knew that before................
