First off you always have to take these things with a pinch (normal a ****ing big one) but assuming the ball park figures are at least in the right area it can be quite interesting to see what clubs ( allegedly pay) and if some of those wages are correct they are quite surprising.

Surely bompy can’t be paying Defoe 130k pw?

 

Sounds a lot but he came on a free and at 35 I'm guessing on a short-term contract. Maybe they considered that the offset.

Which ever way you look at it - the figures are obscene. Some great comments about grass roots football and how guys actually pay subs to try to get a game. We are one fooked up society sadly.

I thought Forster was our highest paid player? Or was that last season?

 

 

His wages were heavily linked to a goal saved bonus this season he has earned £1.45 and a snickers in performance related pay....

And the Snickers was on cut price offer because it was past it's best before date.

:lol: Some might be inclined to say he's been overpaid at that rate :rolleyes:

As you say, pinch of salt, but those figures are quite plausible at first glance :thumbup:

Hey, steady now with the Snickers. Quite a sore point with him.

He was supposed to have a snickers but when they threw it to him he dropped it, and the others in the six pack and, well, you know his issue with getting anything at his feet.:lol:

Actually I think the grass roots observations show the opposite, and are reassuring.
