    Asif £6 Million in 97/98 would be £53 Million now when inflation is taken into account

    I've not looked at his figures but I read into the tweet that he was basing the allowance for inflation on how much Premier League income had increased over the period thanks to the crazy TV money, etc. coming into the game. That's going to be a much more pronounced difference than if one used a more general measure of inflation, hence our seemingly excessive adjusted spending.
