Title: Wage Bill Post by: Dazzza on Wednesday, May 24, 2006, 21:43:00 Anyone know roughly what our current wage bill is?
Just read that Watford have the fourth lowest in the Championship at £3.5 million per year. It would be interesting to see how we stand by comparison. Title: Wage Bill Post by: STFC Village on Thursday, May 25, 2006, 02:32:02 I'm probably being extremely naive here, but i'd imagine it was somewhere between £800k-£500k p/a, as a guesstimation. Method to the madness....
If the average wage for the squad was around £500p/w ---> £2000p/m ----> £24,000p/a. Around 20 contracted players, so 20 x 24,000 = £480,000p/a on wages. If it was more like £800p/w ---> £3,200p/m ----> £38,400p/a. 20 x 38,400 = £768,000p/a on wages. Obviously, there will be a few players earning double the average, but that'll be offset by the loanees/youth teamers in the squad. Can't see it being much more than that anyway. But, of course, this is all complete guesswork, and has been posted as a timewaster while i'm meant to be working, so is probably best ignored :D EDIT: Of course, i'm talking pre-Wise/Poyet/anybody else that has/is joining over the Summer Title: Wage Bill Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, May 25, 2006, 12:13:49 Our wage bill in the 2003/04 season was just over £2.7m and was around this figure the 2 seasons prior
Title: Wage Bill Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, May 25, 2006, 12:15:11 That's total wages btw. I think Village is so naive, yet so.
Title: Wage Bill Post by: Ralphy on Thursday, May 25, 2006, 12:45:07 Pieman, does that £2.7 m wage bill figure include playing staff, coaching staff, backroom staff etc or just first team players?

AceTitle: Wage Bill Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, May 25, 2006, 15:31:44 That's fairly impressive from Watford's point of view considering they're not far operating our bargain bucket trough. Plus food for thought what can be achieved on a budget not a million miles from touching distance.
Title: Wage Bill Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, May 25, 2006, 15:34:17 It is a couple of seasons ago, but we did spend more than a fair few teams.
Title: Wage Bill Post by: Ben Wah Balls on Thursday, May 25, 2006, 15:37:12 In 2001/2002 our wage bill was £2,892,162 but that's for all of the 82 staff we were employing, 69 players, coaches, administration and ground staff and 13 commercial activity staff.
