(These figures have been skewed a bit because of the season running into the transfer window. Some of the figures might be wrong too. If they are it won't be by much though.)
Expenditure
After last year's figures were down due to the auction draft we returned to more expected levels. We shelled out over FF£730m between us.
Only three teams spent less than £35m, one spent more than £80m while the season expenditure record was smashed by one team and now stands at over £130m
Income
It was the year of the second-highest overall income too at over £745m. The team that spent the most also recouped the most - more than they spent in fact. One more team earned more than £100m from player sales, three more were over £60m.
Four teams brought in less than £20m each.
Overall
For the first time since I've been keeping records (the 2006/7 season) collectively we turned in a profit. Ok it was less than £10m but a profit nonetheless.
Five teams made profits, 3 sizeable - 2 negligible. Of the loss-making sides only three were over £20m in the red.
Over the last three seasons our collective net spend is only around £32m.
Since 2006/7 our gross player spend is now just short of FF£8bn!
(How will the pandemic affect these figures over the coming season? Come back next year to find out.)
