The idea behind this site is to give an indication of how much English soccer clubs spend on players and how that spending reflects on the clubs performances. It can never be 100% accurate because in some instances clubs do not release the details of transfers and we rely on media reports for the details. In some instances I record the fee as undisclosed as I can not find a reliable source for the information. There is the same margin for error with all club figures so the figures should be a reasonably accurate reflection of reality. Why bother? Well there are a number of reasons behind the site. Any of us that frequent soccer bulletin boards will no doubt have seen the argument that club X spends more money than club Y etc etc. The Transfer League will give an indication if that is true. Another reason is the emergence of business tycoons buying soccer clubs as an investment. I think it will be interesting to see if they live up to the promises regarding transfer budgets they tend to make to gain control and to see what effect these improved budgets have on the success of the team. Thank you for visiting the site and please don't hesitate to contact me if you wish The Editor. |
