I wonder where we'd be in a list of Championship clubs net spend, I don't have the courage to look.

So is posting the sums you have when they're not net spend and thus don't take into account player sales.

Nobody is saying Arsenal didn't spend money, but their net spend has never been massive.

Not massive but their outlay, factoring in the high wages they do pay means Arsenal do spend a lot more than teams like us. They may not spend as much as Man City, Chelsea, Man Utd etc but they do pay their top players about twice the amount of money we pay ours.

That makes a huge difference, and if you can afford to pay high wages you often don't have to pay high transfer fee's if you're careful in the transfer market and are viewed as an attractive club.
 
Not a single Championship Club has a bigger minus net spend.

But only 1 team, Norwich have spend more on players, gross.

Although they spelt Yeovil wrong, and that's over a much longer period. But I don't care.

I think to improve our negative net spend we should do the following

Sell, Barkley, Stones,Coleman,Baines and replace with Titus Bramble, Jean Beausosaur, Stephen Ward and Franck Moussa
