That would save a minimum of 25 full time jobs on employees earning 2k a month
In reality most earn a lot less than that so it would probably save 35/40 full time jobs
Given most earn 10k plus it is a small price to pay temporarily until fans are let back in the grounds.

if you were one of the lower paid and not previously had good contracts how willing would you be to forfeit a similar chunk of your wages that established players who have earned far more for much longer forfeit...and then watch the club spend 2million pounds or whatever it was plus wages on moore.... give Nelson a new contract..i presume its on better money...and whoever else is in the pipeline....be a great gesture if some were to do it . but would you fund your replacement ?

It is like a normal job earning 300 a week and the boss coming up to you saying take a £25 pay cut for a few months until things get better and we can keep on a load of guys then yes I would do it. That is the same thing just not at the level these players get paid.
You can dress it up any way you like.
Even if they split it in different ways on a percentage then they could easily keep a load of these staff who are probably struggling already after lockdown.
Without these staff, the players would have nothing. It will be disgraceful if they do nothing to help prevent this just like they did in lockdown.

just answer the question...would you take a cut for your employer to bring in a better replacement..?
its not dressing it up.. its hapened.... and our next signing ? are we offering them a real contract or do we ask them for a drop in wages a minute after theyve signed ?

Its not about being replaced on the pitch its about saving the jobs of behind the scenes staff.
Are any of those office staff going to replace the players on the Pitch?
If we can't afford a few hundred quid a month for staff we shouldn't be offing thousands a week to 18 year old to warm the bench
And yes if it saved a load of jobs I would take a small pay cut.

Rick,
A lot of part-time staff were let go.
There is a big over haul of every department and I can understand that as way you many jobs there.
But if we want to get back to the Premier they need to strengthen ASAP

Thanks Annis. Were the playing staff asked to take a pay cut? It was mentioned in another post that NH had taken a pay cut himself??
