It all comes back to the fact that footballers are paid far far too much. 
 

Forget arguments about it being a short career, they aren’t executed at 36 so yeah. They can carry on working at something. 

Didn't Des Walker become a truck driver after he finished playing football?

Are they? Accrington's  may be. It's impossible to tell from these numbers. Chelsea's almost certainly aren't.

When your industry is as reliant on constant injections of funds from hyper-rich money launderers as football is, it's hard to argue that it's all about market forces.

Those figures mean nothing in isolation. Can't imagine the players got much of an increase because they play in Lg1. Would think the TV money etc gives them more each year than ticket sales. 

Being in LG 1 probably helps them as likes of us, Bolton, Derby, Ipswich take decent numbers.

You seem totally convinced that players are paid too much so please can you tell us what the average salary of a player at Accrington Stanley is.

Relative to income yes most players are , when clubs have players salaries from 80% plus of total turnover then you have problems and it’s been going on for years and not just Accrington.

Can’t blame the players at any level , it’s the boards who sanction these salaries and pass the buck down the line.

everytime a club goes into Admin it’s HMRC and the like who take the hit , players and others clubs get paid out.
