Quote thursday gossip pages. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/gossip_and_transfers/6153278.stm Clubs promoted to the Premiership in May will be guaranteed a windfall of £50m. (The Sun) Ever get the feeling the 3 year plan got a little ahead of itself... murphy's law at its finest or what!!!
Yes. Lots more. Continued gate receipts, shop sales, advertising money, TV money, league position finishing money, etc etc. Plus an extra year of parachute payments if we go down the year after. It's a money making machine the Premiership.
i know that... and i am glad we are up... was just making the point that if things had gone to plan we coulda come up with £50m instead of £32m The extra 18m coulda gone on players gving us a better strike force to stop us worrying about things like finding the back of the net like we are at the moment.. the team are doing fantastic keeping the others at bay but wouldnt it be great if we could score against them rather than the bore draws and 1-1's? How many times have we missed chances that coulda won us the game.. that extra revenue might have made the diference between 9 points and 18
wfchornet2 I don't recall a bore draw this season outside the CC - I think we have made our games very exciting, end to end and nail biting. Crewe away two season ago was a bore draw, oh what a bore draw that was.
i would rather be in the prem now than having to play southend 'n all them + we wouldn't be guaranteed to go up with good teams like birmingham, palarse and west brom coming down
