Why do you think our wage bill is larger?

I doubt that it is.

And the original point is that we couldn't spend 15m and 50k per week on two striker in January. Hull were able to offer much more than we could.

Jelavic... 3 in 6 - Long... 2 in 5 (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 20:18:46
- They did indeed (Other Football) - Hootenanny, Feb 22, 20:49:35
  - yes, it's a shame we can't compete financially with the likes of Hull (n/m) (Other Football) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 21:12:36
    - Shame Hughton cant sign good strikers like Bruce can (Other Football) - Fozzybear, Feb 22, 21:25:25
      - They cost roughly the same as RVW and Hooper (Other Football) - Common Sense Police, Feb 22, 21:57:52
        
        Apart from their mammoth wages? (n/m) (Other Football) - Huge Small, Feb 22, 22:07:31
        
        RvW and Hooper must be on a fair old whack.. 35K/week or so (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 22:21:36
        
        Who knows? (Other Football) - Huge Small, Feb 22, 22:31:39
        
        We are paying Gutierrez's wages... So clearly can afford such a salary. (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 22:33:08
        
        for a few months I presume, rather than potentially comitted (Other Football) - Dirty Delia, Feb 22, 22:39:24
        
        Yes agreed, we have no asset at the end of the deal. (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 22:40:24
        
        pretty sure we could sign Gutierrez for free at the end of the season if we wanted to (n/m) (Other Football) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 23:03:21
        
        On 50K a week, I am sure Gutierrez would bite our hand off (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 23:10:31
        
        But not the ?9million pounds transfer fee? (n/m) (Other Football) - Huge Small, Feb 22, 22:38:03
        
        Hull spent 25.7 million this season, less than us. (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 22:39:50
        
        and on wages? (Other Football) - Huge Small, Feb 22, 22:44:00
        
        ?36 million before the transfer window... Less than us 2 years ago. Up to 41 million now (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 22:47:14
        
        the difference in those figures suggest that Long and Jelavic are on 50k per week each (Other Football) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 22:52:41
        
        The 2nd figure... was made up by me, taking the scenario they are on ?45K a week (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 22:54:42
        
        but 50k per week over four years, which was reported (Other Football) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 22:57:09
        
        Our wage bill is larger than theirs.... That means the club can compete on wages. (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 22:58:42
        
        Why do you think our wage bill is larger? (Other Football) - Mecagoenti, Feb 22, 23:01:42
        
        Because 2 seasons ago under Lambert it was ?37 million. (n/m) (Other Football) - phrankin, Feb 22, 23:04:48
