My wage bill for my club is roughly $14,000 and I have $8,300 tied up in players. I only have 17 players my roster. At the end of my last season I had four coaches contacts i couldnt renew and because my wage bill was so high and once the new season started, I couldn’t hire any new coaches because the board kept blocking my offers. I have 8 staff Members with a wage bill of $5,650.
The board set my wage bill for me new season and it’s barely enough to have a coaching staff let alone a roster of players.
I find this strange But perhaps that’s how badly I’ve mismanaged my club.
The board will set what they can afford independent of what staff you need. If it has been mismanaged then they will expect you to hire much cheaper and build the club back up whilst staying in budget.
