Relegated clubs this year will not have any advantage apart from Derby who are likely to have a larger turnover. Im sure we will have a higher turnover than Barnsley or Peterborough. Whether there is any desire from the owners to spend based on our turnover is open to debate.
They’ve been pretty clear that we will spend what we can afford to. We are competitive and the manager needs to be the difference. Cook spent a fortune on wages last year and failed as we did under KJ. Football isn’t decided by how much you spend.
unfortunately in general it is, as in life you get what you pay for.
It’s not though as we, Ipswich and Sunderland have proved season after season in L1. There’s examples up and down the leagues year after year. Leicester didn’t outspend the rest of the Prem when they won the title. It just isn’t the case.
Leicester have one the premier league once unfortunately they are the exception. The premier league has been won the other 29 times by clubs spending loads of money. Of the clubs who were promoted this year Wigan and Sunderland almost certainly had bigger wage bills. If you dont spend the money chances of success are that much more difficut to acheive
