Rob W 0 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Share Posted January 30, 2007 "According to the calculations made by Deloitte and Touche, comparing on-field success to money-spent off-pitch, it is clear that transfer spending has less of an effect on success than wage spending" "When considering the FA Premier League and Division One of the Football League, there is clear evidence that you get what you pay for. Top paying clubs end up in the top spots. That relationship in Divisions Two and Three is less clear, with the lower sums involved meaning its easier to buck the economic trend. At the lower levels, the abilities of coaches and managers to get more from their staff seems to become more crucial. Most of the findings in this section point to the evidence of intra-league polarisation" Sir Norman Chester Centre for Football Research - Leicester Uni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
