How much would we have to spend if we were to get promoted
#1
Fulham got relegated after spending £100 million. If we were to get promoted, we'd easily have to spend equal, if not more. Our squad is awful. Do you trust Luke Dowling to do the, and identify the right players. I don't. Plus how much would Guochaun Lai give our new manager.

Fulham spent 100 million on luxury players and massively over paid too.

It's of no concern as we won't be spending anything, as we ain't got no money.

Remi are we that badly in debt, are the owners banking on us going up. Worrying times if we don't then, worrying Summer. Could you see another Villa, when they nearly went bust. Undecided

We borrowed a few million from "Barclays" in January as Lai wouldn't or couldn't help out.
We borrowed against end of season payments from the EFL - hence we can pay that off but will have no money for transfers.
Unless we sell first. With approx 12 players leaving anyway - free transfers - loans or cheap buys will be what we are looking at IMO.
We won't go bust, but parachute payment support drops a further £10 million if we don't go up. So the first £10 million of sales will be needed just to cover that. If we go up we potentially get a further £50 million even if we finish bottom.

Worrying times, if we've don't go up. Renewed my ticket on a early bird. Can't see us attracting a decent manager with no budget, can you. Hope he sells up and goes.

Fulham wasted 100m. 

We would need to replace; 

Foster
Nyom (did he leave because he thought he was too good for Chump?)
Evans - buy him back as he never plays for Lester
Chadli - answers on a postcard - Bowen?
Brunt - massively under-rated and will take some replacing - quite a unique player is Chris. 
Morrison -   Dack?
Rondon -    Jansson from Spuds

You won't do that in one window.

Let's see where we are come end of next month.
Most newly promoted clubs struggle, two set to go down this year.
