There very little growth in our clubs , same fan base , same South Yorkshire economy so any ST increases have to be at a minimum , you might get the odd bit of shirt sponsorship change and a few extra bucks but it's not likely to change anything of great significance .

The championship is a real head banger for both our clubs , it's probably the most financially unfair league in the world .

The ex PL parachute payment clubs and the bankrolled clubs to compete against whilst the promoted league one clubs get only £8m .

That said there has to be a degree of speculate to accumulate in order to try and survive .
I totally agree with you.

It comes down to ambition.

Pail warne won't be able to carry on getting us promoted at the first attempt than it will become a bit off a slog.

Tony Stewart runs a tight ship and rufc aren't big payers so that 7 million will go further than say Barnsley who have a bigger wage bill spend more on transfers etc
