Thing that's killed us is wages mate, and sacking managers.
Last 5 years we paid comp to both Saints and I believe Watford for Koeman and the Silva tapping up I believe, then had to pay off Koeman, Silva, Allardyce and Benetez - probably to the tune of 50m+ fir all that alone (conservative estimate) two DoFs Walsh and Brands both paid off too, and all of those managers host if cos hing staff they brought with all had to have their contracts paid off too.
We've likely sank close on 70m in compensation payments in five years just on staff...
Throw on top of that we've been paying massive wages in comparison to our none big six competition and that's why we are in such a financial mess in terms of P&S
