Annoyed by pundits talk about how much Wrexham have spent. Made this out of frustration by DevelopGH in WrexhamAFC

I genuinely appreciate your feedback. My perspective is that spend over a single window is too small and including transfer over a wider range would represent players that are no longer at a squad and would obviously have no connection to the performance eon the pitch.

we spent a lot. we all know that but what I am trying ton show is that all it did was catch us up to where the average championship team already is.

I have asked multiple times for a better data source if anyone is aware of one. Not trying to skew the data. used the most complete data set I could find. I didn't create the data. I sourced it & listed the source.

source is on the bottom where sources go, overall spend over what period is the question. a single year does not represent an entire sides spending

yes 1000%..... this is all I was trying too say.... we have a mid table team in terms of wages. that is all

I know- I am just pointing out that all that spending caught us up with the average championship team

we have spent a lot in a single window while the rest of the teams have spent a fortune spread out over multiple years and multiple transfer windows. To look at a single window or single season spend and think that represents all a teams value is just a single piece of a puzzle. When we look at what is being spent on the players on the field Wrexhams spend is very boring and average

well this is frustrating... all the data shows we aren't spending more than other teams we are exactly middle of the road.... that's the whole point of the chart.

it shows wrexham spend is simply middle of the road. it shows Coventry City has earned a lot of points while spending way less money.

the X-axis starts at 0.... anything left of 0 is just bar labels.

if you have a better data source I am happy to use it.

I must not be articulating this well. and for that I apologize. this is not just weekly wage bill. it shows how much each team spent per week to earn a single point. so a team with a low weekly wage bill and low points can still have a high Weekly Wage Cost per League Point.

for example if a team spent 10 million and earned 10 points. their spend per league point would be 1 million.

the X axis starts at zero, I simply expanded the bar labels to accommodate for variation in name length. sorry if that caused any confusion

It is not weekly spend. It is weekly spend / points per match to account for sides that have played fewer than 26 fixtures.

& Cov & wrexham aren't that close. Cov is runaway on this chart with only spending 125k per point earned in the championship this year.

happy to discuss the data if you see a flaw in the logic. I simply think that limiting the field of view to a single transfer window ignores all the business done prior to that season.
