    Sorry but that's not sustainable surely 

    https://www.spotrac.com/epl/manchester-city-fc/payroll/

    Man City's wage bill. How on earth can Phil Foden be on 12 grand a week, Zinchenko 20 grand a week and Charlie Wyke 10k two levels below? Just seems ridiculous
    How can Foden be on £12k a week and Mesi on £400k a week ? Not saying they are on a level par but are they £388k a week different ?
    Messi is on about 1m a week, there's no way he's only on 400.

    Even Bale is on 600k.

    Even more reason to think it's all mental mate. When you watch Wales can you see the difference between the player on 600k a week and the one on 6k a week ?
    Bale isn't 100 times better than Gunter and for the last two years in game time, not as good an option. 
    He’s 100 times better when he sitting in the bench

    On the subject of wages in the Champ take a look at this… so maybe a desired free agent on £18k isn’t so laughable after all.

    So back to Jordan Ibe…was that being classed as a no way,not happening type thing…?
    I've not added it to the list as I don't believe it was ever a serious rumour by a Lifer. No idea whether there is any truth in it.
    On that note, I have it on good authority that Ibe will be signing for us tomorrow. 
    Signed sealed & delivered maybe…😉

    The spreadsheets (not made in excel) are keeping track of the Lifer rumours. Messi's salary really has fuck all to do with Charlton rumours.

     How does a club with not a lot of support in a run down shack manage to pay that much for one player.

    So what is Taylor on ?
    I'm sure Luton aren't paying Ince anything.....he plays for Stoke. He was on loan at Luton last season but I doubt they were paying much towards it.

    not charlton related but doesnt seem like we have any rumours ourselves...but wigan have reportedly offered Charlie Wyke £10k a week to join?! Outrageous amount for a league one player but shows how much Wigan are throwing at it this year
    Seems a lot but if they offered him £10K a week for 2 years thats a 1 million pound investment. We paid c.£500K for Stockely and have given him a 3 year deal on c.6K a week which equals an investment of c.1.4m.
    Plus we offered Graham 9k a week but he got over double that at Birmingham 
    2 things - do you genuinely believe that we would offer a player 9k a week? And do you genuinely believe Graham is on 18k a week at Birmingham? 

    Leko is on a reported £7k a week and he signed from a (then) premier league club. No way has Graham has left a middle of the table league 1 club and got a deal that is 11k a week more than him. Also, Graham was on just over £2k a week at Gillingham - so he goes from £8k a month to £72k a month…. Ok. 
    Around 25+ years ago I slightly knew a Premier League footballer who was transferred around a bit over a few seasons. I recall he went from £750 PW at Chesterfield as a first team teenager, to £2,000 PW at Southampton when sold. After a year or two was sold again to Blackburn and was put on £13,000 PW. I know this was some time ago but it seems that in football, wage rises appear to go up without reason or proportion, to the lay person who argues the toss over a 1% annual rise.

    Look at me being patient.
    Prediction based on current squad: - Heroic failure.
    We await further developments

    There will be nothing heroic about failure this year. We had a full year to prep for it, and everything is in place. Promotion should be expected. As it stands, the squad is not good enough for that, so we need more players. I'm confident TS/SG/NA know what they're doing... we're still in the 'cut-price' and free market now to see how we can fill some gaps, then we move on to the full-price market to get those 2 or 3 we really want, then the loan market to shore up the remaining gaps. We have no reason not to trust the current set-up other than years of misuse by previous owners...of course, that's quite a big reason. In TS and NA we trust.
