the monk Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Strange how the mindset of fans has changed to almost wanting bad news, happy to believe a figure plucked out of thin air by The Sun ( with a few exceptions) That said obscene amounts of money is/isn't being paid for what ? Footballers that struggle to trap a ball,cant pass it back to the thrower without kicking it out of play , cant get a corner to land in the area or in Harris's case the pitch !

0114 Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 1 minute ago, prowl said: We've lost a lot of big earners from the wage bill since then. Jones, Pudil, Abdi, Hooper Boyd & Joao were the big earners to leave after the 18/19 accounts showed £32m. Say that’s around £125K p/w off the wage bill, that’s only £6.5m a year saved. Yet that doesn’t include the new signings we made that season like Luongo, Borner, Odubajo, Harris. Neither does that include our expensive loan signing wages of Wickham, Murphy, Da Cruz & Windass. It also doesn’t include Jordan Rhodes wages as he spent the previous season out on loan. It’s likely to not have dropped that much in the next years accounts.

Daavies; Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I think this might be the beginning of the end. I've never hated my club more than i do right now and that's a very sad thing. I'm 26 and i can remember 3 good seasons of football since i started following SWFC at around 6/7 years old. My parents have seen FA cup finals, League cup victories, european football and even finishing 3rd in the top division. I just hope my kids, in a few years, have a much more pleasurable experience supporting this club than I have. This is the 2nd time i fear for the existence for our club and i'm not even 30 yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked the accounts up to 31st July 2019 and the wage bill was 32m That’s two seasons ago though.. and this report implies the wage bill is now £36m. We’ve since released Hooper, Abdi, Jones, Boyd, Matias, Pudil, Fletcher, Fox and Forestieri, and replaced them with cheap dross. The wage bill for 2020/21 probably is more like £19m.

Sheffield Wednesday is not Bury. My worry is until we get a serious investor, this will be the pattern - a fire sale L1/Championship yo-yo club.

nbupperthongowl Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Irrespective of whether it's £12 million or £12 if no money has been received from the owner for wages in the past 4 months it would seem unlikely that any more is going to be forthcoming, so that amount is almost irrelevant 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to get to a point where the buyer can come in and pick it up for next to nothing. Milan paid £7m for us didn’t he. So things have to get worse before someone will take it on. While existing owners ask for £30m or more then the upside is capped and potential buyers just wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
