Yes exactly. Just look at the finances

As soon as the tv money runs out we will be £30m a season worse off. That means either cutting our player wage bill by about 60% or finding two or three players per season to flog to break even or making big annual losses and a return to debt.

Unless we get back in the premier league.

Debt free and owned by Delia and Michael is only likely to work/make us competitive with prem tv money. Otherwise It's an unsustainable model. Ok we could probably stumble along at mid table level in the champ with the occasional crack at the playoffs if the team gels well but he difference is now that even at this levels there are big clubs, owned by very rich individuals who we won't be able to compete with in terms of wages and transfer fees.
