Part of our problem if the rumours are true is that we are paying players anything up to £1500 a week to sit on the bench,this is totally wrong and urgently needs looked at.Contracts for players should be of a reasonable basic wage but have a good win bonus which creates an incentive to go and have a go at teams if your living standards are dependent on it.Also win bonus payable only to the players that play which would create competition for places and have them desperate to play unlike current situation where you can pick up a decent wage for losing or sitting on the bench surely this has to be wrong

From the clubs point of view, all good suggestions. However I don't think you would get many players agents agreeing to those terms, and the ones that did, would be the lower end of the ability scale, as better players would get better contracts.

Not if we are paying Mcmanus daft money

I think that's how we structured the pay when Tommy Mclean was in charge. Someone posted a couple of weeks back he thought we were paying neilsen around 2 grand a week. If true, that's obscene money for a player of his standard.
