That will no doubt be the same at every club. Nobody bar the top clubs will get the players they desire most.Most clubs aren't spending on the cheap like us. And I thought the whole point of 'The Plan' was to allow the manager to be backed better once finances were ok.
I dont think personally that that was the plan per say, as it doesn't make much sense to cut costs then increase them again. We needed the wage bill to he at a 'sustainable' level, whatever the hell that is. But if we are there now(I think we are) any outgoings can be replaced like for like.
Ireland left so that was 65k off the budget, so we have used that money to bring in Holt and Bertrand(both on about 20k a week?) Leaving the rumoured 25k a week wages for Houlohan.
