Wow Leeds paying 3 1/2 times more than us Eye watering

[taio]

Appreciate it's part and parcel of football, but the vast sums of money paid to agents still gets on my tits.

[Leisure]

Thought ours was a hell of a lot until I saw the Leeds figure!

[distortiondave]

The anomaly there seems to be Hull in terms of performance vs cost.
At least 1st, 2nd and 3rd on that list are 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the table.

[BurnleyHeff]

Leeds spent 30% of the full division total

Chelsea nearly, but not quite, managed to outspend the whole championship:

Whereas the League One spend really shows the gap between Championship and League One

.... And they spent more than 12 Premier League clubs!

Plenty of spending on players leaving as well as those coming in (and new contracts):

Almost hard to believe really. I think we had more incomings/outgoings and net spend than them over the same period.

Exactly my thoughts COM

A few Agents with surnames matching footballers
I presume family relations getting in on the business

I quite like that to be honest if its the case, why not use your Dad and make him a few quid at the same time

Surely that’s not an official document?

Names in lower case? Sam Waller being spelt with a 5

[AlargeClaret]

Great ( if eye watering insights ) no suprise that the 3 newly promoted and quickly relegated teams had the lowest fees ,says it all

[AlargeClaret]

*** correction ^^^^
I see Everton spent slightly less than Leics

The underlying pdf is the official one. I just quickly copy/pasted the Burnley bit so I could put it in the thread and a few errors came in.

What Leeds spent on agents' fees is higher than the wage bill of most of the Championship clubs.

[Petersa]

I presume these fees include what clubs pay to offload players surplus to requirements. Suspect if Man U eg can get rid of quite a few this summer then agents fees could be money very well spent.......at least better than what they paid to recruit some of them in the first place
