because the futBOLers get paYD MORE THAN SOLDIURS crowd have a very narrow field of visionOriginally Posted by Former Labour leader
I'd rather working class lads and their families get the money. We aint half a nation of bootlickers at times.
Who’ll be earning it and more for the rest of their life, not just for an 8/10 year window.
The 'Bosses' 'Landowners' etc but lets have a go at people who are probably from the same environment that most of us are from.
That’s what I said.
because it's a football forum about football and that's what we are supposed to talk about.
Er, I don’t think so.
No one earns a SALARY like footballers do.
People in business might have a decent salary but a highly paid footballer will still get paid more in salary in a month than they do in a year.
People in business make up their compensation in shares, (the values of which can go up or down - lol). bonuses etc and can get paid handsomely as a result.
But in terms of weekly take home pay no other job come close to how much footballers get paid
This is all in the public domain.
For how long though? A fat cat business man/actor/musician etc may go on receiving ever increasing sums all his life whereas a footballer has a 9/10/11 year time slot if he’s lucky. A footballer negotiating, say, a three year contract at the age of about 27, is 99% of the time negotiating to earn the highest wage he’ll ever earn in his life (for only three guaranteed years). Unthinkable in industry for anyone that young to have hit their earning peak. Even us minions have wage increases throughout our working life, a 60 year old would obviously be taking home more than when he was 25, 35 years earlier, not so a footballer. They’re very often working class lads like us who deserve to make hay while the sun shines.
There's too much money in football, but too many people blame the players for it.
The truth is, if player wages fall, it won't get cheaper for the fans. The money will still be sloshing around but it'll go to some faceless people who absolutely don't deserve it. At the moment at least the money goes to those with the talent, who have sacrificed their lives from about 10 (possibly younger) and who are putting their balls on the line
Because footballers generally come from poor or working class backgrounds and are often foreign or an ethnic minority
Foreign, poor and black. The 3 characteristics the Daily Mail tell their readers to hate.
