Bournemouth say have a wage bill of say 20m and therefore can increase to 54m . Some will be taken up by contract increases, but even if they double they can spend 14m on new wages

We can spend 4m unless we sell. Hmmmmm

It depends on how the money is spent though, Burnley opted not to take advantage of paying high wages and new transfers and were relegated. QPR the opposite and still got relegated.
With the players that will hopefully be on their way out we can sign 3/4 players of real quality.

we are Sunderland, not Bournemouth ffs.

I only recently discovered the difference between Bournemouth and Brentford ffs.

Tin Pot outfit who will drop like Burnley more than likely.

I think they will spend more than Burnley and will give themselves a chance of staying in the top division...Sunderland are a massive club compared to Bournemouth so it's a bit of a silly question to be honest. I actually think Burnley did a good job of staying in the PL considering they spent nothing, if they can keep their squad together barring Danny Ings I can see them coming straight back up.

It's a good question.

Sunderland two years a go generated £13 mill in gate revenues and Fulham generated £12 mill with half the crowd.

Bournemouth is a more attractive place to live and average 2 degrees Celsius higher so a bit better climate.

With TV money making the also rans in the Premiership a lot closer on financial income it's possible could be a more attractive club for players this time next year.

Poor bait.

All foreign players care about is London or the big clubs. Your international footballer isn't going to live in Bournemouth because its 2 degrees warmer :lol:

I noted your above point in a different thread. It's a very interesting piece of info and forms part of a wider discussion about the direction of football in general I'd be interested to see what becomes of the game in say 50 years time.

What's a massive club nowadays?

Sunderland is club with regional support that struggles to fill their impressive stadium.

The 40,000 odd they do get generates no more income than a lot of clubs that get 20,000.

Apart from the nice stadium Sunderland are no more an attractive proposition than the worst clubs in the Premier League.

Its not London though. You can get a plane from Newcastle and be in London in the 2 hours it would take in a car/train.

Factor is as well the commercial deals Sunderland would get over Bournemouth its not quite the clear picture you paint.

Add in:

Sponsorship
Kit deal
Gates
Matchday revenue

The figure soon drifts from around 10m to around 25m extra a season.

It's not bait at all, Bournemouth is a very affluent place with a harbour yachts and one of the most expensive areas in England. 2 degrees is more than a difference than you think.

This is sad but true. The bottom 9 or 10 teams of today's premier league are about as attractive to players as a cesena in Italy or a rayo vallecano in Spain in terms of non monetary attraction (Ie prestige etc).
