No player should even be earning £1 million a season if the truth be known, from my stance anyway.
I know I know, the argument would be " but you pay peanuts and you get monkeys."
It wouldn't be peanuts and any player would give his all for that amount of money if it was toned right down.

This is why the game's going to pot.
You are right...well you would be if we also became more successful whilst cutting the wage bill.

I know you don't mean what you post..just enjoy being contrary...but I have to ask...do you really expect us to applaud fat Mike for standing up and trying to make things better? Haha.

The reality is...you generally have to spend to become more successful. ..you then earn more money, etc.
