    Indian government have told Indians to cut overseas spending. Because of this Blackburn aren't apparently signing anyone else even on a free or loan and look like losing their manager.

    With us having an Indian owner I think we can assume we will be affected too. It's looking that way with either key players sold or loanees deciding to sign for league rivals or not sign new contracts like Luke Thomas or being linked to or signing non league players or seemingly low balling clubs for league players.

    They might look at what we are spending and tell us to spend more

    Never known a pre-season where fans have lost the plot more than this one

    The people at the club have said the plan is to be self sufficient
    Only spend what’s coming in /to going out.

    If you take that literally ,the wage bill will have to lowered 25/50/100//200 …. %
    I will leave it to the resident accountants as to what a more accurate percentage figure that would actually be.

    If that is to be the plan.
    looking at players and staff who will command those kind of lower wages would align with that strategy

    I will be impressed if they get the wage bill down by 200%. Are they going to let supporters pay to have a game?
