It’s a total bullshit site. Why anyone believes it I’ve no idea

There's always one.

If you believe Tavares earns far more than MVE than that’s great.

This is a thinly veiled sulk thread I think but I'll bite. Don't see that it needs to be a play off place. Under MR I lost count of the "next season" "rebuilding" "gelling" comments. Top ten this year given some of the pish that MR bought in last 18 months. Thereafter pushing for play offs every season is the new standard

So doesn’t the new manager get any gelling in time?
Seeing as the team, that is virtually the same as last year has been allowed the leeway to have?
So that’s a 10 game free hit surely, whilst he gels with the team & set up?

Exactly

There's already people making excuses for next season, let alone this one! Heard people saying how hard the championship will be next season with Prem clubs being relegated and that is unrealistic to assume a new manager will be pushing for promotion next year, its crazy.

People were doing that under MR and countless other managers.

Some of the mental gymnastics and double standards on here are great.

You may.

It's been reported in a number of places.
Such as capology. (To name just one)

2024-2025 Coventry Salaries and Contracts

Capology | Football Salaries & Finances

www.capology.com

Although I believe they can't always be trusted, for example, I've been aware that Binks was on £30k a week before we signed him and we agreed to continue to pay him that as there was no big fee involved.

I've also been made aware that Dovin's wages demands were exceptionally high, and the transfer fee was negotiated down to allow us to come to an agreement over his wages.
Which explains the delay in completing his transfer. (His wages are allegedly far higher than detailed by Capology)

In what other profession would employee salaries be available freely online?

Think we have to look at next season really , ofcourse magic might happen this year and if it does great but realistically we just need to set some really solid foundations to carry us into next season

What's your point?

Quite. People who always urged patience and claimed we were rebuilding every season now wanting instant success. Utter nonsense based on nostalgia and emotion. The success of the club is more important than whether you like the new manager. I think people just see FL as too big time. They will be throwing rocks at the moon later

They’re made up. Bologna are a medium sized club in Italy who’ve punched above their weight recently, they weren’t paying a reserve player 30k.

Cally Fedora · 2024-11-28T18:28:19+0000

Expectation is mid table this year and top 10 next. It’s where we are as a club. It’s by no means a bad place either

quinn1971 · 2024-11-28T19:04:30+0000

expectation is play offs but there shouldn’t be a meltdown if we don’t, robins has had 3 seasons and 45 million, give Lampard the same budget and see how he gets on, pretty sure he wouldn’t be getting players off Barnsley. Huddersfield and Peterborough

If Dowie can do it, anyone can.

Remind me sorry ?

Got to give Frank a bit of time to get to know the squad, his philosophy to download to them and to get into a flow. He will then know where the gaps are and he’ll want to bring a few more bodies in and ship some out. This season if we do something special it’s a bonus.

The figures are rubbish. The total wage bill is half the clubs total. It’s shite data.
