For expenses, they spend: £8m Staff Costs, £3m Cost of Sales (not sure what exactly this is but presumably falls within Other for us), £4m Other Operating expenses
Ours is: £4.5m Staff Costs, £3m Other Operating expenses
So fair to say they do pay a lot more than us, and even after our good year this year we won't be close to paying the same in the short term.
Goes to show how good a job the football staff at Hibs are doing given relative limited resources.
