I don’t know what our full playing budget is although I guess I could add it all up and work it out but I can’t be arsed, but our 2 top earners are on 6k per week and before this I would’ve guessed our top earners would’ve been on around 3-4k per week so it proper shocked me what all clubs in this division must be laying out.
That can't be true mate, someone must have got that wrong. That's about 20% of last year's entire budget for the entire staff on two players!

It seems really high to me too mate but that's what I've been told by somebody who knows someone at the club, the same person who told me about Obikwu's car crash before it was made public.
Maybe they've got muddled up somehow I don't know but they are definitely not a bullshitter.

Yeah, I figured it was probably that same source. Hopefully they're not right! Don't get me wrong, McEachran is earning his keep if it's true...Davies though, yiiiikes.

Grimsby can’t be paying anyone £6k a week, surely? That’s not far off double our highest earner and we hardly pay poverty wages at this level.

The Grimsby owner didn't mention this in the latest Guardian column did he?

I can't see how it's possible we are paying players 6k a week , maybe it's muddled and 6k a month or something. We will see the wage bill anyhow in the next week or 2 when the accounts are released ; but I hardly think as 'the guardian writer' claimed a team with a 'mid range budget' would be forking out the highest wages in the league somehow
