But how can PDC be expected to cope with just the 382 players we have on the books?
Funny!

Seriously...
@The_Swine_Don: Fully supportive of the transfer embargo. Heard the #STFC business plan currently requires us to get 11,000 every home game to break even.

Hopefully the League Cup game will help?
Not sure it will. My understanding is that a projected turnover is agreed at the start of the season and then reviewed in January with the caps being a percentage of the figure agreed. Not aware of there being any re-negotiation inbetween. Besides, the League Cup isn't worth that much. We just get 50% of the gate receipts for each game after expenses have been deducted.

A visit to Old Trafford in the quarter finals might be different.

Wray said that anything past the Villa game will be extra as that game is already budgeted for.

With the greatest of respect to the board, how can you predict we would get to R4 of the cup as a minimum? Surely it would make sense to budget for first round cup exits away from home, then anything over and above is a bonus. At least if you privately state to PDC we have to finish x in league and reach round 2 of each cup, then there is a target to work to.

The budget will change as the year goes on. I think he meant that the recent wages percentage calculation included the Villa game which would make sense as we can spend more as we receive more. It's no problem really, the Villa result will determine our entire survival.

Because then the 65% you have to work with is lower and you reach your wage cap sooner.

It's not the FL fault that we've sailed too close to the wind.
