our wage bill really is not tiny

We paid out approx £82m to finish rock bottom of the PL (adj from the 13-month accounting period)

Sheff U spent £72m and were mid-table
Wolves spent £95m and were 3 pts off qualifying for Europe.
In 18.19 Hudds spent just £64m

I mean, last time in the PL we were among the 45 biggest wage-payers IN EUROPE!!
