You could buy a season ticket every year for 100 years in the Canton stand and you would have only paid for Cornelius wages for 1 week. :shock:

No one should be earning that much at our club IMO unless their something special.

The wages in football in general are off the f*cking scale.

All the money the clubs get from TV and sponsorship and it was given all to the players, most of whom are average, instead of lowering ticket prices for fans.

I hope the bubble burts to be honest.

I couldn't agree more, people who say they would rather be a football fan now as opposed to 20 years ago are lying or didn't attend 15 years matches ago.

Sadly, the PL and clubs in this country are way too greedy to even consider what they have done in Germany, Ian.

Would certainly make it a more level playing field but the top clubs would find a way around it, same as their doing now with the financial fair play rules.

Agree in principle but it would never work. There would always be a way around it.

The same way as capping investment from chairmen, so they disguise it as sponsorship. There would be extra payments going on everywhere disguised as endorsements etc.

If it were to happen it would have to be a world wide cap which covered not just wages but every income stream related to the game to avoid "cheat payments".. but in reality thats just too hard to do.

Interesting statistic - 90% of fans will make judgments on a young player after playing only 113 minutes.

Still doesn't change the fact you're bitching about a 20 year old that didn't choose his price tag, if someone offered you 8 million you're not going to say no
