If Conor’s been taking £9K per week to not play then that’s taking the p*** also. Not sure how much trust I’d put in the figures - I doubt specific players salaries are in the public domain anyway.
I'm not sure how they get to the figures. But when you look at what is shown in total wages in comparison to 23/24. Accounts. The overall figure won't be far out I'd guess. £7m+ on players wages as published in that link. EMPLOYEES AND DIRECTORS Wages and salaries £10,156,405 23/24 £8,329,385 22/23 Which as JF says indicates the big increases demanded by players in league 1.
