That report was published in May 2012 and the info is from the start of the 2011/12 season it looks like. They've bought a fair few players since then.

Their squad size has reduced by a couple in the last 2 years, & a few of the old big earners have moved on (Barton, Nolan, Smith). So I can't see it having increased above ours since, as Ashley had forced it down to that level deliberately

I don't think it's above ours tbh, just don't think it's miles smaller than ours.

What are we discussing now?

Newcastle???

Is this Football365 lads?

 

[Allezfan]

Maybe not, but I seem to recall a wages table that had us in 7th only behind, Man UTD, Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs and QPR

I would like a link if true.

The Guardian has us 10th in 2010-11 and ESPN has us 9th in 2011-12. There's no way we pay mroe wages than Villa or Liverpool, imo.

 

[Essex Blue]

We're well better than they are and have a higher wage bill and much less wealthy owners. plus we'll sign 2 before the window is out.

Is Ashley richer than Earle or Woods?

It wouldn't surprise me if we actually had wealthier owners than Newcastle, but their major shareholder is willing to invest in his club/business, whereas none of our's are.

This, Liverpool is the team that pays their bench players 70k a week ffs.

[AaronTheBlue]

David weir is a coach

 

[ToffeeMike]

David weir is a coach

He also scouts, I've seen pics of him at other games wearing Everton tops etc...

 

[AaronTheBlue]

He's been to see Vegard Forren, Along with steve round and david moyes, He may have been to watch players but his job role isnt as a scout, David Moyes, Steve Round, Have also been to scout players but it does not make them scouts.
