Wage budget bug since 20.2.4 update?

So a weird thing has just happened in my lower league save. I'm in charge of Boston United and started the save with a wage budget of £5.3k and a transfer budget of 20k. The club tends to make a profit each month of around 20k-30k and at the end of my first season the overall balance was a healthy 400k.

Here's the odd part....

I'd originally been given a revised budget for season 2 of 6.5k on wages and 50k for transfers but as pre season progressed without any notifications my wage budget randomly increased.

First it jumped to 9k, then 17k and now mid way through July it's a massive 53k per week! At national north level!

Even funnier is when I adjusted the budget to give me a more sensible wage structure my transfer budget jumped to 2.7 million! Surely this is a bug, a game breaking one at that as now I feel like I want to start fresh as to me this is an unfair advantage.

Has anyone eles experienced this? Is it a bug or just a crazy irresponsible chairman?

I have the same problem in my Altrincham save. Went through a full summer window, having a nicely successfully time of things with the transfers then at the end of summer I realised I'd hugely overspent on wages, meaning my projected bank balance was hugely negative very quickly. Despite this I could still adjust budgets to get a £5m transfer budget. Complete game breaker unless I strictly monitor my wage spending. Any update on this?
