    but **** me £28k a week at leicester is barmy, rising to £40k if they get promoted. with the new financial rules starting next season, how can leicester possibly stay within them if the don't go up?

    Fire sale. The new owners will have put the bare minimum in hoping for the rewards of the promotion. If I remember correctly they weren't exactly well off when Mandy sold it on. They have spent around twenty million since the summer if reports are correct. That doesn't include wages.

    It's going to take a club from the premier / top of the championship to go to the wall before the message finally sinks in with these clubs. Its scandalous that clubs are allowed to keep spending like this but get away with no more than a slap on the wrist when it all goes wrong.

    Its funny lol, Leicester probably know they wont meet the new financial rules next season if they dont go up. So they are spending even more to try and ensure they can avoid them :)

    A very risky game they are playing

    Don't they only apply to European competition? Long way from having to cross that bridge.

    Isn't it coming in next season for the Football League?

    Apologies is this isn't the case.

    And they are 2 points better off than us, puts it into some perspective doesn't it. I can't see them going up, then what? Trouble ahead for their creditors.
