Josh Murphy £25k Highest paid player at Preston.
Gavin Whyte £8.2k Highest paid player at Oxford.
Max Watters £3.9k 3rd highest paid player at MK Dons
Ryan Wintle £6.7k 2nd highest paid player at Blackpool.
You look at that and I think our future is going to look like players and wages similar to Watters & Wintle and that will place the club around the middle of League 1.
One thing that stands out is that the wage bill at the club currently is less than £1m per month but no doubt Dalman will be saying VT is still putting £2m per month into the club.
Wages aren't the only outgoings to running a club. Don't we have tens of millions in debt? Staff and a giant 34,000 seater stadium to run/maintain. It's easily believable that we're spending 1m per month ontop of wages.
I agree but when you consider the last time we were a Championship club with no parachute payments the accounts show £34m in revenue. Another outgoing could be instalment payments on players we have signed but that would likely be partially offset against players we have sold. With a wage bill of £12m per year and say the same in running costs and past revenues around £30m I just cannot see why the club needs a further £12m from the owner.
Gary,
The Accademy kids are not given signing on fees, just happy to get professional contracts at low wages.
Tan has not been putting money in, it’s been the parachute payments going back in the last few years.
How can you say tan isn't putting money in, read the accounts .with no parachute payments our outgoings are much more than our income its not rocket science, our income probably wont even cover the wage bill of the 1st team , the wage bill will be a lot higher than 12 million that's just the ones on the list I know our 3rd choice keeper takes home 1k a week ,1st years players get 800 a week ,the whole club wage bill will be over well over 12 million ,people are forgetting that this years season tickets sales are in last years accounts due to covid most are freebies this year so no income from that too ,without tans loans we would be in Derbys position.
