I've seen other folk claiming higher wages Wakey, though some of them seem to think we're still paying a few Prima Donna League wages.
According to Companies House filings for the season ending June 2022, our total wage bill (players and staff) was £20m and change, with income including the back end of the Prima Donna League payments at £30m and change. We'd 80 players and 157 "other staff" on average on the books. I'd assume some of the "other staff" are match days only unless the Stadium Company picks up that bill. Either way they aren't on £20K per week, most of them won't be on £20K per year. Our matchday income is only £5m, commercial/retail etc brings in around anther £4mish so it's not hard to work out why Deano was coughing up £5m per year on average. Take £21m out of TV and League Income and we're heading for a larger loss than that in the last and current season unless our players wage bill dropped a bit.
