I only hope that may be the case only until we get the wages and commercial revenues sorted, and then we put our big boy pants on & start behaving like we have a pair.
Were going to break even as usual. It's not a matter or pants.
Sure deals will go up. And other clubs get those improved deals aswell so players wages go up as a result.
We'll have money but not an obscene amount.
IMO the 'traditional values self funding policy' is little more than a comfort zone to hide behind, as an excuse as to why we do not compete amongst the elite in terms of titles and silverware in terms of our position amongst the top10 clubs in terms of revenues (9th) and value (6th) . It's passive, self induced, lacks ambition, self fulfilling and it's BS.
I'd perhaps have more tolerance IF we reinvested those revenues directly into the team, and then aggressively sought to maximise our revenues on and off the pitch, but we don't - as a football club we generate financial profits FFS.
