You you stated 2nd or 3rd, and used that as a basis to say I was incorrect. However the data clearly shows that it is you who is incorrect. No worming out of that one. Maybe you should learn to read and read your own posts thoroughly?

What about FFP published reports, and the statistical analysis provided by sport economists I also gave you? No ignore that, "to suit your agenda". In addition, once again you foolishly claimed something without checking, we weren't top 3 for every single one of those years, and whilst that brings the average slightly up, we are still not top 3 on average. But more importantly you said the best part of 20 years, clearly the results above are more than enough to prove that isn't true. So the omitted results do not help you in the slightest with the comments YOU made previously. As well as the fact that going back to 1994 or '20 years' ago was ridiculous for you to do in the first place as those years would have little relevance to the face of modern football.

If you're insulted that's on you not me, you lowered the tone with "learn to read" and rolled in here claiming I was incorrect when the evidence actually shows you to be factually incorrect.

And yes you claimed that we were 2nd or 3rd top spenders for the ebst part of 20 years. That is what you claimed and used to suggest I was "making stuff up". But it is you who made that up and I've provided the irrefutable evidence that shows what I said was FACTUALLY correct and it was you who was wrong. Again you're worming around and it does you no favours, as you say you should "learn to read" your own posts before you back track. There's not getting out of it the evidence is there in your own hand.

Here's a talk sport link..another "reliable" source...

Including transfer fees, yes indeed we are, the 2nd link I gave you also said as much. That of course has nothing to do with the wages discussion we were having, but it is an interesting side note, and goes to show we are one of the worst for getting value for money in buying players in my opinion.

First graph mate, it leaves off Everton who rather surprisingly (at least for me) actually overtook our wage spending in 1 or 2 of those years), but we have seen a steady uptrend whilst always remaining fourth (if we ignore Everton) except for 1 year being 3rd and more recently slumping to 5th (as this particular graph only extends to 2010).
