Its also a very confusing picture because our year end is June so in a promotion or

relegation season its not an accurate picture of the finances moving forward over the next 12 months.

For example, if I am reading them correctly (and its possible i'm not) these figures include £10m of promotion bonuses and also several million in extra transfer payments (Buendia) triggered by promotion to the premier league but they do not include any of the premier league TV monies which ultimately will cover those costs (and then some obviously).

£472k to the highest paid Director is interesting. I can only assume that was Steve Stone but given he left in October 2018 (i.e. 3 months into the financial year) that represents another significant wad of cash sp**ked up the wall if that is the case.
