I am still gobsmacked that nobody cares about those wages and what it means for our club.
Wow.
What wages? The £185,000 a week being reported by the press or the unreleased figures by the club or player but said to be in the region of £120,000?
If EVERY City player was on £200,000 a week that would mean City's wage bill would be £260,000,000 for a squad of 25. As it happens it's around £140,000,000.
So the average for each squad player is £107,000 a week. Adebayor is leaving, Jo who was on huge wages HAS left, and several more players are on the way. If Tevez leaves this window that's another £220,000 a week from the wage bill reduced. also FFP comes into effect in 2014, at the moment this period is for each club to be seen to balance the books.
Last season the club spent over £130m, this season just £74m (on four quality players i must add, in contrast United spent £55m on three kids). Plus we have some of the greatest business brains on the planet who have a track record of operating a profit at some of the biggest businesses in the world taking care of our finances.
You're right, i'm bricking it....
