Fatcats: Gordon Taylor chairman of the PFA, on £2.29 million

on the subject of fat cats and undeserved salaries and golden handshakes, isn't it time Gordon Taylor was relieved of his duties (he has held his position since 1981) and some proper reform was undertaken at the PFA. a more appropriate salary would be about a tenth of that IMO. by the way, in previous years his earnings have topped £3.37 million after bonuses.

The Professional Cricketers’ Association paid its chief executive, David Leatherdale, £137,990 last year; the Rugby Players’ Association in England paid Damian Hopley £134,430.

bear in mind that the PFA does not just represent premier league footballers, it represents those scraping by on £20-30k a year in the lower leagues.

with the level of mental illness, and early dementia being suffered by players who have retired, taylor takes home four times the grants the PFA gives to people suffering from these things. also bear in mind the PFA has shown zero interest in representing their members by investigating the incidence of early onset dementia amongst footballers.

And all directors and chairmen of all organisations and businesses should divide their salary by 10 too

On second thoughts. Let's pass a law stating we will all earn exactly the same money regardless of the job we do

you idiot - he'd still be on virtually double what his counterparts in cricket and rugby are on.

well it's certainly in line with premier league footballers salaries, although obviously 50 times what the average league two player will be on.

there's other things to be concerned about - buying multi million pound paintings, £50m reserves, whilst players who haven't earned millions from the game have to make to with grants totalling £500k a year, which spread over helping many, really isn't much at all.

i'd suggest you both read the article, as what taylor has done really is shocking.

ive read it twice he blames Taylor for absolutely anything and everything.....
winning a case against a newspaper for hacking HIS private messages on his phone..
having an all male event.....its really not balanced is it..

compares to what the guy doing the equivalent job in rugby earns...

and yes comparable in terms of premier league not league 2

he does not then add what the rugger/cricket guys earn compared to 4th tier rugger and cricket players which of course is often zero...

maybe he earns too much, maybe he is too old,maybe he is not doing a good job..but once i see in an article that the journo is bending and twisting so many things its hard then to accept any of it as fair..
