99 Problems

https://www.spotrac.com/epl/leicester-city/jamie-vardy-22799/ various sources quote between £140k to £160 a week for Vardys contract. He’s likely on more than £100k and even that is going to look eye watering in the championship next season. What on earth was the point of giving a 35 year old a 2 year contract on those kind of wages? Did we seriously expect him to be scoring 20 goals a season in the PL as he approaches 40??

No he wrote off a chunk of debt the club was never going to be able to pay off in what was effectively a tidying up exercise (as explained in the athletic). There’s no injection of cash or a translation into additional funds The losses make for very grim reading. If we relegated we’re going to be stuck paying the likes of Vardy £160k a week while losing the revenue streams from the PL that allow us to do that. It’s going to be a disaster
