    but we are embarrassingly bad, sunken to 3rd tier and getting absolutely battered by Wycombe Wanderers

    yeah a team that has the 4th lowest payroll in the division and was traditionally non league amateurs when we were in Prem - how far we've fallen that was the point

    Well I'm gutted but it was obvious. We can't defend...best thing I did was when we scored I backed wycombe to win...4/1 odds...I knew we would lose but money in my pocket makes things less painful...we can't keep clean sheets...

    if you're happy with that performance fair enough, I personally thought it was a bit embarrassing

    Think Wycombe's budget will be higher than ours. They have some money behind them these days.

    their transfer spending was higher but their club costs are way below ours, we have bigger and more established infrastructure across the whole club, more coaches more youth players more staff etc

    Yes, you may be right there. Our overall costs will be higher due to overstaffing on the coaching side, stadium maintenance and the academy.
    I was meaning transfers and wages.
