And how much is Tan putting in or did he say at the last time it was talked about?
I'm assuming those other clubs have owners covering their shortfalls too? If not, how do they do it?
That wage bill has risen under the ownership of Tan so if he needs anybody to hold accountable he should look in the mirror.

Don't you understand?
He probably doesn't care
It's his club , he can do what he wants
He is not going to look in the mirror , this is just peanuts to him

He owns the club sludge. I get it.
The club is that of the fans for me. Without them Tan owns a club that is worthless. People should remember that. This club is nothing without the fans. A shell.
If I was him I would care though. If I could change what I did and save myself millions and get more success into the bargain I would listen to the advice and change my methods.

How much larger is our wage bill than say your Blackburns or Millwalls of this league? Is our squad much more extravagant than theirs? I mean this season, not seasons gone by when we had PL or parachute payments.
That's cool. We will have a £10,000 a week wage bill. We will be £130m+ in debt, but we will have a £10,000 wage bill. :hehe:

I was joking by the way.
I did not think our entire squad would be paid a total of £10,000 per week. I thought the ridiculous figure made clear it was a pi$$ take.

Surely it is longer than 20 years - when did the fans have a say in the club - not in my time following them?
People also make the voice known on the product hence why crowds fluctuate usually based on success on the pitch or not - this was the case long before we were called customers?

It wasn't the realism of the £10,000 it was more the idea that we would be better off 'starting again' on a smaller cost base in League One would be one to go for...which I think I've seen similar mooted in another thread and think Ive mixed up threads.

I've not suggested dropping into League 1 would benefit us in any way.
It just seems Tan wants to get as many youngsters or cheap options in regardless of the league we're in.
I realise it will be a bit more than £10k 😄

Indeed, it would be between Tan and CCFC should he ever say enough is enough. No-one would win.
