Just read the editorial in the March edition of 'When Saturday Comes' on the growing financial divide between the Premier League and the Championship. The gamble that 'Fuson International' took at Wolves to bank roll their promotion paid off, though they could be in bother with the 'fair Play on Finance' rules. That won't worry them because they are in the 'Prem' and will stay there this season at least and their fans, in the main, are happy. Compare that with Chansiri at 'Wednesday'. Despite ploughing millions into the club and with losing in the play offs in consecutive seasons, Wednesday are in financial trouble and the fan- owner relationship is fractious at best. Chansiri blames the Leagues 'Profit & Sustainability' rules which allows EFL clubs to lose £39 million over three seasons. Wednesday lost £10 million then the following year £20.8 million. In order to raise £15 million Chansiri says he needs to avoid P&S sanctions, he is looking to the fans. He has introduced "Club 1867" which is a scheme to sell Premier League season tickets to be redeemed when and if they eventually get there. The cheapest is £455 for one season, the dearest is £3200 for five years. This insidious ploy is a typical example of how desperate and irresponsible some club owners have become in their search for the 'Holy Grail' and an object lesson for our own club. For every club like Bournemouth or Wolves there must be four or five like Wednesday. Clubs like Huddersfield should be applauded for achieving their success by decent methods, although it won't give them sustained Premier League status.
Obviously didn't learn the lessons from when Mandaric had to save their ar$es. Should be made to start again from the Conference. Make sure they don't do it a 3rd time in 15 years.
