Not really comparable, different times, transfers fees have massively increased. The season we went up under Malky we easily outspent anyone in the championship and were the big spenders. Under Warnock last season I would say our budget was one of the smallest considering transfer fees and wages etc

Probably the 1998/1999 season when we went up finishing 3rd under Frankie Burrows Barmy Army.
It was actually a good season and we had a big rivalry with Cambridge and Brentford believe it or not
It was the same season when loads got locked out of Brentford just after Christmas, Believe by Cher and Maria by Blondie were top songs at the time
The next season we came straight back down, the Sam took over.

I still think we earned promotion under Malky he only spent £10m that season
