I agree with Opti, it's outrageous. But, where else can I wind people up when I'm bored?

Good luck to them whatever they earn just glad that I don't contribute anything towards their wages.

Earn implies graft........or intellectual excellence. They offer neither.

The reality is they are just a bunch of teenage boys and twenty something lads who kick a ball about on a muddy piece of grass.

Still, market forces say they should be paid 50 times that of a hospital consultant. and drive around in a new £300,000 Aston.

I believe that the Barcelona players voted to take a 70% pay cut last week. This was to ensure that the lower paid staff will still get their full wages.

Assuming an average premier league wage of £70,000, a 70% cut would leave them only £21000 each week. That seems hardly fair on your average 20-25 year old. How is he supposed to live.

They are providing something that people are prepared to spend vast amounts of cash on. I aid and abet by subscribing to sky sports, but some folk spend a grand or so on season tickets, buy the shirts, window stickers, etc.
It is, I agree, obscene, but supply and demand has always been the way of things.

Unusually for a scouser you are often correct. I suppose the same applies to other 'hobby jobs' like Golf, motor racing, tennis, baseball etc ...etc.

Whilst I agree that footballers[the top ones especially]get paid obscene amounts of money,how many of us hand on heart can say that if offered the same wage would turn it down as being too much?

I really hope I'd feel sufficiently ashamed by the current situation to pay the bloke who cuts the grass out of my own pocket rather than see him out on his @rse, mind.

Well, they aren't allowed out any more, so there's that...

£21000 of Pizza in a week means they would be too fat to run around when it's time to kick a ball again.

Effectively some premier league clubs are demonstrating a dismissive 'f*uck you' attitude to their low paid staff while simultaneously arse-licking the players.

He is the same fella who threw all the fake money at Sepp Blatta and got into the Tory press conference and handed Theresa a P45.
