Anyone care to take a punt on how much of what we make goes on player wages?

In 11/12: Everton 79%, Fulham 79%, Bolton 95%, Stoke 75%, QPR 91%, Man City 87%, Blackburn 91%+...

95% of income going on wages? Seems a mental way to run a club - FFP will change that, surely?

I would guess, from Barber's various pronouncements, the fact that we're an emergent club (i.e. not holding loads of Prem players on Prem wages) and anecdotal contract rumours on here (specifically Murray/Dobbie/Bridge) that we'd sit at the lower end of the scale?

You have to wonder where QPR sit on this scale right now. Is it closer to 200% than 100% ?

QPR on 91% last season, before they made all those big money signings this season.

They have 92 million quid in interest free loans from Fernandez and the Mittals.

Anyone want to trade places ?
Ahoy shit creek ahead, expect Redknapp to jump ship taking the paddle with him.

Think so, on income of about £22 million.
