Bournemouth....worthy of a separate thread perhaps...but how on earth do they do it ? 2nd in the Prem with attendances of 11,000. Im afraid im well out of touch with how football is financed these days. Doesn’t
Fairplay rules or whatever it's called prevent you from spending more than a certain percentage of your turnover? How are they affrding premiership wages?

Apologies for being so naive.

Attendances are prettt irrelevant. Other stuff far more relevant...TV money...player sales...good accountants etc etc

Jay Rod has been removed from Wrexham's 25/26 season player roster due to a foot injury, which is far more serious than first expected.

Yes. His career could well be at an end. Shame to end with an injury, at a club where the fans didn't see the best of you.

Owned by a consortium led by American Bill Foley who is worth 1.2 billion. They also own several American sports teams so will know their way around ahem, 'accounting'. This might have something to do with bmouths success.

That must be hard for you. I couldn't stand it. Still, they'll all be ST holders when their new 200,000-capacity stadium is ready.
