Interesting stats. My maths is great but it would seem that although Gary J and his team are probably costing Mr Osbourne more they are actually by doing well going a long way to pay for that through the significant increase in gate receipts.
I’d say that, in addition to the further 800 on the gate, it’s more than likely that Johnson has, up to now, reduced player wages by trimming the permanent squad. Further, he has secured some of our better performers for another year avoiding the bigger signing on fees the agents of new recruits might expect.
Essuman (Dulwich Hamlet loan); Gowling (Hereford); Sokolik (released); Regis (Wealdstone); Bawling (Oxford City); Wright (Gloucester City); and Williams (Sutton United) have all gone since his arrival. Banton also has been out on loan for a couple of months until today with another club being actively sought. Nabi has been training at Kidderminster and may soon be off the wage bill.
It’s a quality balancing act that a good and proven manager can do for the benefit of all, including his paymaster. He is a perfect fit for us. And I think I may love him.
