Would you not prefer the money to go towards players than writers?

You are relentless Bridgend :!: ,writers get the same wages as championship players don't they? and yes if I am spending my money on written content I want it written properly.

Fair comment mate but it seems if I say pink you will say purple and if you can justify slave labour and working for free then we will never agree on anything.Are you saying working for free on a programme that is being sold is fair????????,sounds like cutbacks to me. :ayatollah:

Right, before I make this post I'm going to clarify one thing. There's a difference between slave labour and working for free. Slave labour is when you're FORCED to work, working for free is voluntary.

I personally don't see what's wrong about working for free on a programme, perhaps it'll appeal to a young writer and give him/her experience to go on and write for bigger things?

I dont see why this has to be to do with the investment, or are we now just using anything to have a dig at the club?

What do you class as professional writers? MarkBloom? Steve Tucker? Terry Phillips? All talk complete shit for the echo about our games.

I think this is a great anisitive for young good writers to get good experience and I'd put my life on them being better written than those paid at the echo.

Yes he/she will, cause he/she will show that he/she is willing to work for nothing, which will show the employer that the applicant is willing to work.
