Can be dangerous talking money on a Leeds forum. Only a matter of time before someone mentions that stupid Delphi deal whernwe got 200 million or something and none of it can be found in the accounts. Oh no I've just mentioned it

Not sure how Leeds would cope with KB at the helm- expectation from the fans- our current wage bill of £7.7 million would be difficult to maintain- MOT

....................................................................................................

According to your latest accounts, your current wage bill is £20M!!

Not True - £7.7 miilion was in last accounts- we have trimmed the wage bill since releasing our biggest earners Michalik, Robinson and Beckford.

Show me some evidence of £20 miilion wage bill TC.

MOT

Well in 2008/9 it was 12.3million

2009/10 It increased 22.7% = £15M, AND IF Ken Bates is to be believed, it went up another 25% last season - you do the maths!!

Also - we have trimmed the wage bill since releasing our biggest earners Michalik, Robinson and Beckford.


Yet Paynter is on £3k per week more than Beckford was, Schmeichael is on more than Robinson & Michalik put together. You were paying 50% of Watt's £12k per week wages, McCormack £10k per week, OBrien £11k per week, not sure about Lloyd Sam, but I know he was on £9k per week at Charlton
Nunez, Lichaj, Bannan, Bessone & Connoly would have commanded Championship wages (at least £7k per week)


So please - do behave

You made all of that up quite clearly- Put some facts behind your statements.Bates runs a very tight ship in terms of wages you should know that by now- Its why Kilkenny and Johnson have not signed new contracts- Bates and Harvey work on a very tight wage structure overall but keep spouting the opposite.
