    Parachute system is one of the reasons why I will never see CAFC a top flight team again in my lifetime.
    Ipswich and Luton have both been promoted to the Premier League in the past couple of seasons without parachute payments

    Same with Sunderland last year, whilst two other Play-Off teams: Coventry, Bristol City didnt have them either

    Personally think Wrexham have had a great transfer window, arguably the best in the league. 

    We would all love to be in their position with spending surely, I know I would. 
    A net spend 3x higher than 2nd highest. That isn't a great transfer window, that's sheer indulgence 
    Not sure I'd be trusting Phil Parkinson with £35m personally.... 
    led them to back to back to back promotions. I’m sure they trust him more than enough 
    Can't see him lasting the season , they'll get itchy feet if they aren't top half at Christmas.

    Tom McIntyre joins Bradford on loan , but they failed to sign Dobson from Wrexham in time 
    This is some of your greatest work. In awe

    It will make it all the funnier when they fail 🤷
    They best Millwall at the Den 2-0.

    Want to put money on us doing the same there ?

    Southampton showing how fucked the parachute system is, got absolutely rogered all season last time out, spent the most, sold the most, net spend is the "best" in the league, so essentially can try and throw money at it and go again safe in the knowledge that the coffers are fine for several seasons
    To be fair, they’ve brought in over £100m in sales fees

    Sunderland owned by the one of the richest men under 30 on planet earth and Ipswich bought by owners who had a fund of $13bn & $700m in available capital, their first act as owners was to wipe out £100m in debt. Bristol City owned by Steve Lansdown of Hargreaves and Lansdown ( they don't invest directly on the pitch as much but have invested huge over the last 10 years in Bristol sport) 

    Coventry & Luton more comparable to us, Coventry are where they are because of either luck or smart player trading (Gyokeres) which leaves Luton where a certain individual allowed them to build a squad where the group was able to achieve a lot more than the sum of it's parts. 
    Yeah I get they had money, but it doesnt shy away from the fact that its not impossible to get promoted from the Championship without Parachute Payments... I mean Sheffield United (who will recover), arent exactly doing great even with them now.

    Yeah that's what I meant, they have basically been able to sell players for loads, and then buy players for loads too, but they'll still make a profit because whilst they've "lost the Prem money" they'll still get parachute payments on top of the 70m they've made on player sales.

    Great stats there, thank you... Interesting to see the big swing in signings from abroad (assume that's other) I do feel we've missed a trick there in terms of both value and ability.

    Looking at the signing by team it feels like Blackburn have had a bad window, lost key players and replaced them with unproven talent. I could see them getting dragged down into it. I feel Oxford and Portsmouth haven't done enough and will be down there with us, Wednesday and Hull.

    Yes other is basically abroad, with just a couple of players that had been out of contract for long enough where I didn't class them as joining from their previous side also in that category. If people are interested, (I might anyway, because I am) I could break that category down into countries where those players have come from. To see what markets clubs are buying from.
