Transfer budget next season

[Chester Perry]

IF (and a big one at that) this stat from the gazette on teeside is true - then we are already spending £45m+ on wages - figures here are weekly spend on wages

Watford - £1.55m
Swansea - £1.41m
Middlesbrough - £1.22m
Hull City - £1.22m
Bournemouth £1.10m
Burnley - £954,000

source is dodgy I know but indicates while we are low in comparison to our rivals many think we are having a much more determined go at it and much closer than ever before at this level

Teeside Gazette........Mmm....

Eddie Howe left us for Bournemouth in league one!

Eddie left because he missed his family not because he saw Bournemouth as a better prospect at the time, although he may have heard about a possible foreign investor coming in.

I think it will be as much, if not more than we've spent this year which was/is close to 35m
if my calculations are correct (Brady 13m + Westwood 5m + Hendricks 10m + Defour 7m).

You forgot JBG and Pope

One match at a time.... a long way to go in this season.

If the annual spend is anywhere near accurate our lads are doing quite well; as we must have the smallest squad in the division.

As Jacob Zuma said, one hundred point two million.

What would be the cost of building a new stand around the remains of Matt Rhead?
