Amortisation

The graph below shows the amounts paid each year to bring in new players. These figures may not have been quoted in the press but they are the figures that the club report in their accounts.

Of course there are sales as well as buys, the graph below shows how these have netted out. So in 2006 for example £6.1 was spent, but £10.1m came in from the sale of Dean Ashton and others. Who the others are isn't clear ! So the numbers below are positive when Norwich took in more more than it spent on transfers, and negative when it spent more on transfers than it brought in.
