    If they stay up will they get a lot of money in their second season ? Ans/ Yes

    An interesting business strategy - as said above in 9 months time we'll might be thinking what a firkin good idea ! Why didn't we think of that ?

    TS is addicted to Wembley now so what the hell.

    Will they have to spend a lot of money to stay up? Ans/ yes.

    It's all well and good looking at income, but it's best to keep an eye on outgoings too.

    Looking like Stendel is getting a good slice of that to spend this window .
    animallittle3, like I said, you've not hung about with the 4 million increase in revenue......where as we did and didn't recruit well, if at all and it now sees us 4 million worse off for doing so.

    Brin .

    The lad maybe £1.2m but he's still a gamble and not a tried and trusted championship player .

    The lads an opportunity with us but I couldn't say with any confidence that he will be a success .

    Is it ambition or is it gambling?

    Probably both Grist , an ambition to try and at least retain championship status and recognising that it requires a roll of the dice to do so .

    This in essence is how you progress in football on the field .

    Nobody as yet has worked out over here why we are owned by a consortium of billionaires , that is still very much in play but I suspect that playing in league one is unlikely to deliver what ever they are seeking owning a small town club in South Yorkshire .
