Also the narrative that you need more money to compete isn't quite right. If you spend wisely you don't need as much.
Indeed. Greater revenue would enable us to spend more on transfers but that guarantees nothing. Look at Spurs.
Spurs were renowned for being careful with their spending until this summer. lets see where they finish at the end of this season. SCR only starts this season and it is expected it will strengthen the correlation between income/spending and league position. Also we have a large waiting lists of fans wanting to attend matches but can't. They are the fans of the future and if not able to get to watch games they will go elsewhere. I am alright because I have had a season ticket for years and keep renewing but I am in my 60's and wont be going forever. We need to bring new fans in.
