Here we go again - 'Talks can wait'

The players are surely on a what division contract, ie - wages go up if promoted to championship,
go down if relegated to league one.
One question - do the players get a bonus with promotion, I know at one time there used to be a
pool of money, in which players & staff benefitted from a promotion, does this still exist ?.
But could Tony Stewart decide to increase the wage structure across the board on contracts, thus
keeping all players happy, the club does not want to have a big differential in salaries, if so could
cause a split in the team.

There were also days when things like meat hampers were offered as incentives to win promotion and were actually appreciated by the players. I doubt if that's the case these days when even mediocre players like the cat kicker are on 125 grand a week.

Pop round next door for a joint these days and more than likely you'll get a different thing!
