As wage budgets are not reported by clubs how the heck can anyone know where we are in relation to other clubs? Plus a wage budget is not static, other things come into play (as we saw when 5USports came along) which make budgets fluctuate for any number of reasons, cup runs, sale of a player, unexpected costs, all can change a budget from any given figure to another figure.
Its all speculation, we probably didn't have the biggest budget, we probably didn't have the smallest....who knows?? I'd suggest our chairman, manager and finance director know ours....and tha'ts about it!
My thoughts exactly...

Was this while you were jostling him for an autograph?
Why would JB confide in you any more than anyone else getting a Sponsors' selfie?
Why would JB have access to all the other clubs' financial dealings and thus budgets?
The above posts of 17th, 11th, 10th positions clearly show no one is 100% in the know from their hearsay contacts on the inside!
Precisely Coolie - precisely.

I’m sure that I’ve heard previously that club’s get to see a league table of budget’s and are therefore able to establish where they are within that table - I’m pretty sure that they don’t get to see which club has which budget though.

Regardless of the budget I would just like an update from the club over what the latest situation is with regard to signings. I have paid for my season ticket and I would like to be reassured I have a team to support next season.
The headlines on the clubs website when I looked this morning was about a sausage and cider festival.
Other then the club are in talks with potential signings, what more of an update are you seriously expecting

For Christ’s sake, why does every thread have to degenerate into abuse and name calling?
Anyway, back on topic - the County must have a bit of money behind them this year (possibly from The Hundred?) as Chris Lynn and Jimmy Neesham for the T20 won’t have been cheap.
I wonder if sometimes with the County overseas signings because they are quite short-term whether benefactors/sponsors fund these? Easier to do for a 2 month cricket contract than a 12 month football one. I think they do receive £1million pound for The Hundred. I guess that was the carrot to get the Counties to agree to it and the schedule changes as a result.

I suspect you’re right and I’m sure the County have some well-off benefactors that are bankrolling Lynn, Neesham and Willey. It is noticeable that Northants seem to be one of only a few Counties that have got high profile overseas players this year.

He's certainly attacking...and all the more competent than Super Sam at skying it!

We are all mostly on here Northamptonians who like to see all three major sporting activities of the Town , County and Saints do well. So if the County pull of some decent players good for them! If you are a neutral that is perhaps an issue for you.

As far as I am concerned, cricket is the most boring game in the universe although golf probably runs it close. My only interest in Northants CC would be if George Hill gets signed by them from Yorkshire as he was Big Boy Bingers best friend at nursery. Over than that, I am not right fussed.

Out of all three sports I have played in Cricket for me was the most enjoyable. Going into bat against hostile WI bowlers on the Racecourse and surviving in match saving 37 not out is hard to beat.

They don't tcobb - they parcel their opinion as fact. It's probably or even maybe; I can never get close too in pronouncing a fact on here!! Too many self opinionated/egoists experts who more often that not have some sort of agenda to knock the club/owners /Council/Trust and even Hoskins. No wonder people get fed up reading the sort of opinion which Jean G rails against. Now we have one punter claiming that the apparent split in club support might damage, put off or reduce our Budget/Investment Policies.
