Daily Mail (MOD: Article on our debt)

Must be players wages and agents fees.. It can't be transfer fees as our club record payment was £370,000 in 1993!!! Transfer fees at our level haven't really gone up in 30 years. Remember that in years gone by, we used to recoup a lot of money from selling our top players. We don't have this luxury now as they either get poached from us as kids like matt macey, Scott sinclair and Donovan Wilson, giving us just a poultry sum in return or wait until our players are nearing the end of their contracts like agogo, cureton and matty taylor and force us into accepting a small fee (no doubt the same will happen with jch). Also the PL are to blame with their ridiculous parachute payments of 60m a year over 3 years to championship clubs who have gone down. They then set the standards in terms of the wages they can offer and the rest of the football league clubs have to try and play catch up or risk losing their players to mediocre championship clubs who can afford wages just as we found with losing the likes of Chris lines and Tom lockyer.
