and the grey area after it where they might be a coach/trainer/chairman and get half of there wage for the rest of there lives... Fair.

Why do I deserve a rolleye

Anyway, you can argue that these jobs are jobs that make them work through retirement, as they have retired from their main profession, professional footballer.

Even if this is not the case, as a coach in a lower-league side they won't be getting much anyway, probably less than what graduates take home. Only less than 1 percent end up working in the Premiership on high-ish salaries (even then they earn less than they did as players.)

If you do the maths, it doesn't quite work out for most average players that are on 10-20k/week in a mid-table Premiership team.

 

[moody]

To be fair, they only "work" for 10 or so years.

But when you take into account that an average premier league player is earning at least £20k per week. He will take home the same amount in one year as the average worker will in his lifetime.

Thats one hell of an old repost

COuld'nt have put it better myself.

 

[Jokester]

oh that excuses the disgusting amount of money they get then, because they only get it for ten years... and the grey area after it where they might be a coach/trainer/chairman and get half of there wage for the rest of there lives... Fair.

It's entirely fair, supply and demand and all that.

Well maybe they should get a job playing for a Premiership team then

Football players have skills not many people have, which can generate a large amount of money for their employers, therefore, they are well paid.

It works the same way as a highly skilled engineer getting paid more than a factory worker.

 

[fullspizz]

This is part of the reason Derby are £40million in debt, stupid buying and wage policies in the past.
Now they have to get players on loan cos they have no moolah.
Ridiculous.

So you want communism then?

The money is floating around in football, sponsors and TV channels are putting it in, the money is there to pay the players high salaries, where do you expect all the money to go to? players to say no thanks that's not really fair to pay me so much?

was published by the newspapers a few years ago


odd thing is the address which is near me and is just a standard new build estate , certainly nothing special

I know, Derby player living in "Often" (local nickname for Alfreton which is next to South Normanton) LOL

Usually Heatherton Village or Royal Glen Park at Chellaston for the Derby squad.

I used to knock off one of the birds that worked in payroll at DCFC, she told me some things that made me go

Totally agree - complete set of muppets have strangled the spending for the future.

Be over yours in a mo Deano

At the end of the day, it's the players that generate the massive wealth that football enjoys. I much prefer it going to them rather than the chairmen like it used to 50 years ago.

 

[[DOD]Asprilla]

The only thing that surprises me is that he's not get any decent tax planning.

 

[Borris]

May I call Shennanigans?

There's no way someone on that money would be taking it all PAYE.

I'm not saying he wasn't paid that much, just that I doubt he would have been paid in that fashion.

As [DOD]Asprilla points out, his tax planning is pitiful, and footballers are the Artful Dodgers of the tax avoidance world.

 

[One More Solo]

As has already been stated, if your employers earned millions because of the performance of you and 10 mates then you'd expect to be paid accordingly.

 

[Bennah]

I bet the Tax man is happy with Footballers, signing new contracts worth £75,000+ a week.

£36,000 in Tax is just plain crazy...

I bet he had to contact his bank manager about his £50 fine deduction
