If we're making profit out of the tv rights, it will go down I expect, because we have a structure, El Presidente would be more savvy on this.

True in a way.
You’re not affected by Parish paying relatively huge wages.
[MENTION=31]El Presidente[/MENTION] might correct me, but I don’t think any of the PL clubs are or will be in financial trouble. As well as having broadcasting income, they have owners with money. FFP might actually have worked. Giving a reduced risk of another Bolton.
I would expect the Albion's wage control percentage to increase, but the average in the Premier League is 60% and the median 58%, would expect it to be close to the average.
If someone comes in and offers £30 million plus for Dunk and offers him £100,000 a week I suspect he will be sold, that's simple economics.
Profit and debt are independent of each other.

But decisions aren't always made based on pounds shillings and pence, and some things (and people) have a value beyond pounds, shillings and pence.
Hopefully.

The more I see these figures the more impressed I am about Tottenham.
They all look solid unless relegation occurs, some are in a better position to cope with the shockwaves there than others.
You're priceless to me x

Which is why Swansea, Stoke and Sunderland have suffered?

So is @BG.
Stoke are fine as the owners are worth at least a billion and local fans. Sunderland have been a car crash and the Swansea chairman, who made millions selling the club to a pair of American vultures in 2016 quit last night.

So, and not getting on the back of our lovely Palace supporters that infest our boards, purely on stats, how would they survive in a lower league if they got relegated? Is there an algorithm that could be right or wrong?

Specifically Villa and Sunderland, had gone on unsustainable spending sprees in the past, plus long huge contrast to players who then took the p ... loads of them. With Randy Lerner and Ellis Short refusing to out a penny extra in.
Swansea’s board about 18 months ago run out of cash, they’d spent their PL broadcasting income, and had to take out an overdraft to try and reinforce the squad in Jan 18.
Stoke owned by the billioniare Coates family and lifelong fans ... [MENTION=31]El Presidente[/MENTION] ... why the demise in Stoke’s fortunes?

Bit wrong there, look at his first two seasons and where they finished in the division.
Stoke are in good health, have spent £58 million in the summer window (and £9m on Vokes this week) since relegation, they haven't spent it well though if you look at results.
For a duller look...

Yeah but look how they did that, they were doing a Burnley long before Burnley's last season.
Copying Stoke's reign in the Premier League is the only thing that scares me about the Albion's future.
Approx 11 wins a season.
Average of -15 g/d
1 FA cup run.
What's the point?

I recall now, they struggled to score in their last PL season, not having a consistent top flight quality striker. Quite a common situation - Everton, Newcastle and Palace have always been looking for the same.

I'm not qualifying Mark Hughes as a good coach, great player, mediocre manager. But their demise wasn't down to him.
