...are set to land a £2.5m windfall as a result of Ben Godfrey moving on to Norwich.

I mean, that's amazing for them - but at £25m, I would have thought a 10% sell-on is quite low for this sort of thing?

Not if they've received an initial fee perhaps?

They're heavily in debt. This will cover about a quarter of it according to their forum.
Do they drop the debt levels or carry on 💦 splashing 💦 the cash in another promotion bid?

Seems to me they already did splash the cash, releasing all but four players and bringing an almost entirely new, experienced at this level, squad.

I don't think the wage bill will be too much more than last year as they were on a fair bit.
