Ian Evatt has spoken about them....... https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/spo...an-evatt-surprised-league-one-budgets-season/ The article gives an idea of what we are up against next season to be competitive and put in a promotion push. Lots of former Premier League clubs and teams with decent crowds for that level who are willing to try and spend their way out of the league.
12500 season tickets is pretty impressive. Even allowing for the good news we've had in this last week I'll be amazed if we top 7000. Shows what we'll be up against.....
Didn't Khalid say our budget was going to be about 12th next season. So anything above mid-table will be a result.
I like Ian Evatt,he's done well this year. The transfer average of 270,000 is interesting, a bit like the 1980s. Mind you the country reminds me of 1980.
Average wage bill of a league one team is £6m pa. If Khaled has made that statement that we will be around 12th then it implies that the wage bill will be reducing by around £8m from the current £14m.
