Sunderland have had two relegations in a row, so like Wolves when they were in same boat their parachute payments will be huge. That said, they might be far worse off financially for all we know.

Think I read they are 137m in debt, and that was last year. Their owner has stopped putting money in, so any parachute payment may not even go near the squad. They’ll still have a huge budget for League 1 i would imagine, but i’m sure players like John O’Shea will be on 30k a week from their premier league days, just not sustainable in League 1. I could quite easily see them doing a Sheff Utd and being in this division a number of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disjointed Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Bolton were in the same boat financially and managed to go straight back up, albeit with some of there debt being wiped off the slate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our wage bill is no longer the 25k a week it was under Corney, you can double that at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My logic is saying maybe that's why its handy still to have Corney around just in case things like this turn up. We still haven't had an outcome from the HMRC pre-xmas visit Unless I am being totally stupid, surely when the takeover happened both parties would have agreed who was responsible for what bills before/after take over Or am I totally being naïve?

I don’t know about that Tracey..... if Mr. Corney has committed the club to costs & liabilities that require settlement, they are now Mr. Lemsagam’s concern. I find it odd - after being around for long enough now - that Mr. Lemsagam wouldn’t know about all the debts the club has. He either agrees with or disputes them. There seems little room for any middle ground, other than the same incompetence / austerity we operated on under Mr. Corney. I’m unsure of the purpose of the HMRC raid, but if it was to investigate individuals and not the club, Mr Corney’s presence is an irrelevance.
