At least it gives us a league table showing how “competitive” our budget is

I think it's very misleading presenting such exact figures with no explanation for how they are calculated.

I think like a lot of your sensible posters on here have said it is rubbish. We probably have paid decent wages but we have the smallest squad in the league, which is hampering us now. An example is that Coventry have 36 players on their books. Someone said we had under achieved which is ridiculous we have just gone for a small squad of higher quality (Which I agree with). Clubs are much more transparent now, with FFP and have to release figures twice a year - Our chief executive said that based on this at the start of the season we had the 14th highest budget in the division, so we have over achieved, hugely. Its just we spent our money a different way. https://www.lincolnshirelive.c.....lincoln-city-1550127

City have made a good stab at putting a decent squad together, sadly we made a right hash of it this season, the worst I can remember. However if I was Jolley I'd be rubbing my hands together at the opportunity he has been presented with. More or less a blank slate in terms of players forced on him and with a competetive budget even at last year's levels. With very few big hitters, 3 automatic promotion places, and the 4 beneath judged as success of sorts it's a great opportunity for any manager to make his name in this division.

I agree, I think he seems a decent fella. He will need to make you an attractive proposition but there are plenty of decent players out there. I would certainly think you will be top half this coming season.

I am pretty sure we won't make it this year but with a few tweaks I can see us pushing for automatic the coming season. As you say, hardly any big hitters coming up or down.

It's the management team that's the problem - I suggest they go for a couple with more League experience - Slade and Wilko...

And the feck to Scunny and Bury pay on average £2.5k a week on pitiful attendances - how much cash can the Owner put under Financial Fair Play...?

Isn't it as much as he/she wants provided it is not in loans?

League One money is significantly higher from TV etc
