jono Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 3 hours ago, StarterForTen said: I can't help but think that is a typo - £900 more likely than £9,000. A young pro even at Derby won't be on much more than £50k a year plus bonuses - which could well be very lucrative. Doesn't matter now. He's no doubt just secured his family for life. Four year contract with a Premier League club must be worth at least £5m if he sees it through. I’d guess that the 9k was his new salary having established himself in the first team then you have 4K in tax 1k buying, running and insuring his flashy car what’s he paying to his agent ? whats he paying in to whatever after career football players insurance ? .. significant I suspect monster mortgage On a short repayment because you don’t stay a footballer for 40 years goes pretty quick I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me old fashioned, but why do we assume footballers can no longer work after 35? I was a soldier on a 22yr contract having signed up at 18 which would've ended at 40. Not once did I think I would deserve to retire at the end of it. "Hi Colonel I'm due to retire in 5 years I'm gonna need my £35k.pa Sgt's wage upping to 20k a week to cover me not thinking I have to work again" Entitlement or what! My best pal was a championship footballer I used to lambast him for that attitude footballers had. All your points are valid by the way in terms of mortgage and cars but holy smokes you can't legislate for that level of expectation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought he also paid into his pension ( up to £40k tax free) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 5 hours ago, MACKWORTHRAM said: Considering we seem fairly confident of getting a striker in before Saturday. I can't honestly think of us being linked with anyone? Who's everyone's money on? Or aho would you go for? With the fees spent on Marriott and Waghorn, we’ll be in the market for a cheap alternative, maybe even a loan. That means one of 3 options: 1. young player with potential from L1/2. 2. experienced player at upper championship level. Most likely a free agent. 3. Loan from top Prem club. If option 1, we’d probably have signed them by now. Option 2 seems possible, but I can’t think of many options - maybe someone like Hemed, Necid or Sylla. Struggling to think of a youth CF who we could be interested in, and who we’d rate higher than Trialist at making an impact. Maybe Balogun from Arsenal? But he’s linked with a lot of moves away.

RamNut Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 7 hours ago, Macintosh said: If the [desperately-needed] new arrivals only come here as loans or free transfers don't become suicidal, it's time to smell the coffee. I’d be delighted if all signings were freebies or cheap. I’m actually more worried about us jizzing millions on players and going back to the clement-era. every season we have an end of season review where Mel scrutinises the issues. This is often followed by staff restructures, notions about needing plan b etc. I think the sudden interest in 3 at the back and the back recruitments the outcome of an inquest into last season. i worry that the planned player recruitments are also part of some revisionist thinking. it is reminiscent of when we signed weimann, bent, Blackman, and camara, when suddenly we decided that we needed pace, mobility and a totally different type of attack. I don’t trust us to have scouted properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All your points are valid by the way in terms of mortgage and cars but holy smokes you can't legislate for that level of expectation. It's not the expectation he'll retire early 30's, it's the mortgage provider basing an offer on such. You wouldn't offer to lend someone a loan over 25 yes, knowing their only going to earn that much for a decade. I do agree with the main point, why should footballers be immune from career changes like the rest of us, but I can see why £9k doesn't go so far for them as it would for us.
