  • £112m https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/44171269 (not sure why it says rugby union in the link) Higher than everyone bar the Premier League top 6 that season.

    Can't imagine it has dropped much now they are in the Premier League. Most clubs tend to finish roughly where they would in a league table of wages (with Burnley being an obvious exception last year). Newcastle are under-performing but seem to have managed to convince people they're up against it.

  • Newcastle has an artificially high wage bill because of the premium they have to pay to get players to live in Newcastle. It’s a reverse London weighting thing.
