    It was more to your point about being unsustainable, if we make the CL we could definitely afford £60M in wages. You get a minimum £30M for just getting into it never tickets and merchandise etc.
    It would be sustainable as long as we kept bringing in quality and selling on players for big profits. That’s exactly how Ajax done it.

    I do think our wage bill rises massively when we qualify because its built into contracts. Qaulify and they get massive bonuses.

    That'd be my take too... that we have a pretty strict and restrictive basic salary cap, but quite extensive bonuses. Have a vague recollection that we spent a fortune in bonuses that time we made it outta the group stages of the CL

    Ive always said go for quality not quantity. Look at Sevco, Gerrard has signed over THIRTY players since he started with the huns....and they're still *.
