Why is our budget probably the lowest in the division
I keep hearing this trotted out but do you have any evidence?
All I’ve heard put forward is:
‘KC mentioned good housekeeping’
As there has virtually been zero match day income this season and no teams have gone bust it looks like most if not all teams have practiced ‘good housekeeping’ because of COVID and reduced their budget.
‘KC said he missed out on a lot of key targets’
There is always going to be big competition for the most sort after players and most clubs will miss out on many main targets. Morton & Wharton were 2 key targets which we missed out on because of Appleton’s links with WBA and the other wanting to fight for his place at his parent club. We later found out Miller & Edmondson were another 2 key targets who we were able to sign at Christmas, both have been as poor as the rest of the squad and just prove this summers recruitment process was poor.
‘Look how bad the squad is’
This could be just poor recruitment. We will finish above Bristol Rovers and Swindon so do people feel these these two teams also have lower budgets than the more logical options of Accrington, Crewe Rochdale & Wimbledon?
