Not really, not that it matters, but DC told us how much Fletcher and Rhodes were on at one of the fans forum, the figures are a few k off, not far off though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans will run with the 50-60k though without even checking the numbers Listen very carefully Rhodes was on 60k a week at Boro and I'm ITK on that So Rhodes took a 38k a week haircut to come here when he could have sat up there on 60k until the end of his contract!!!

handworth52 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 is palmer on the weed again? fletcher 60k a week? rhodes 50k then that other piece of paper shows bannan and rhodes earning well under tom lees and westwood? somehow not believable ,bannan when he signed his contract was wanted by many clubs ,and when we got rhodes he was on a huge contract at boro and was massively sort after as a proven goal scorer what cost a lot of money these days in wages.

Reyt. he took a pay cut to come here as he was getting a 4 year deal and wanted to play for us but not from 60k to 22k no chance . my guess is nearer 40k or no lower than what fletcher was on.

No one cares about your theory reyt You have people with some credibility posting on twitter of 2 clubs potential wage figures, I'd take that over a random fan on owlstalk who cant really back up what hes saying.

sheffix Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Don't begrudge anyone earning what they can but as a society we have really lost our way when health and other essential workers are paid so little in comparison to the massive remuneration received by footballers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a completely different world we are now in and that compounded with our previous spending habits I can see why Fletcher and FF have to go. The best thing our chairman can do is get genuine football advisors in who are not in it for themselves. If he hasn't learned this yet there is no hope for us.

Taximark Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Think Palmer in the midst of all this guesswork does raise a valid point...that we have/ had a lot of bang average players on stupid money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 £1.56m a year doesn’t work out as £60k per week, its £30k. What the F has he been smoking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. Football is redicalous now, I have been following Wednesday and football in general for as long as I can remember but I CBA with it anymore, the game has being ruined by greedy people and corruption within the game.

bigdan2003 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Wasn’t our wage bill something like 42 million? I know that includes all staff, but obviously the majority of it will be playing staff. So not hard to imagine that the wages of certainly players won’t be too far off Palmers estimation. Eye watering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pat blondeau Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 2 hours ago, Owl999 said: I think Carlton has a more informed opinion than people on here give him credit for. I like Carlton but his memory isn’t always the best and he exaggerates a tale. On this clip here (about 1:30 in) he talks about how we isolated John Terry in the Rumbelows cup semi final in 1991. John Terry was only 10 years old in 1991 And on this one he says Nilsson marked Giggs out of the game in the 91 cup final in his first game back. It wasn’t Nilsson’s first game back and Giggs wasn’t even playing 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
