    No chance Morecambe have a budget of £4.5m (Nor Crewe, nor Colchester) whilst Notts County have £1.25m.

    Harrogate at almost £4m - what rubbish is this?! :joy:

    I'd file that away in the trash.

    Edit: it's not squad budgets is it. It's market value. So City have 30 players at an average value of 178k with a total squad value of 5.35. Still rubbish, mind you.

    That's not the budget. It's the value of the squads and all it means is we have the 4th biggest squad by numbers.

    That’s not a budget it’s an imaginary valuation of the squad and average player value

    And some people can't read. We are 4th on that list but not 4th by value. Look again. Its ordered by squad size. We have the 4th biggest squad in l2, that's all it shows

    The table is absolute nonsense. Firstly it is not the playing budget as you label it; it is the market value (the clue is MV;)) of the squad as calculated on the Transfermarkt site. Secondly as an example, to reinforce that it is nonsense, Ash Taylor is included in the MV at £350k and Oyegoke at £500k!

    I can't believe people look at things like this. It is literally values taken off the Fifa or Football manager computer games, absolute pie in the sky

    And to make matters worse it is quoted in Euro's!!! Complete drivel

    File this tosh in the same bin as the websites that claim to know the wages of all the EFL players.

    If they got them from Fifa or FM that would be at least explained but they don't even do that, it's like they've been invented from thin air. I mean, Oyegoke worth 500k?!

    This is the site that Edin thought was a genuine scouting website and used it for bidding wasn't it? It was like a year in when someone told him the valuations are made up.
