00:00There's a supporter on social media after the game on Sunday that suggested
00:04Sheffield United are only top due to parachute payments. Does everything that
00:08you've just talked about over the last five minutes... It's just a lazy, lazy
00:13assumption. Listen, we've got a competitive wage bill. I think
00:22you've seen the work that we did in the summer. Small fees,
00:27frees and loans. And we brought some decent figures in as well. So I
00:36think it's always a cheap shot that people can use. You know, if you do your
00:42bit of digging and what you have done. We've got some players on decent wages
00:45and we've got some good players and we've kept some good players. There's no
00:47doubt about that. And the board and the owner backed us getting those
00:52players in. But listen, you just have to take that with a pinch of salt and
00:59crack on. I'm just interested in the group as they are at the moment and how
01:03well they're doing. It doesn't distort it. If that was the case, you know, I'm not
01:11so sure as I said. Regarding wage bills and stuff like that, there's some really
01:16competitive. You look at that West Brom team. There's some boys there
01:19that we couldn't touch a few years ago that are still there. The
01:23Swifts and the Wallaces. Mikey Johnson's that we went after and
01:27other players. So I'm not going to get into all that. But yeah, I think you
01:32understand that. It's a lazy assumption.
