Ollie93 Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 Read today that each player gets a bonus of £300,000 if we stay up regardless of how many games they've played. So Ulloa would get the same amount as Upson. Personally I think this is a good incentive. Do you agree/disagree? Apologies If there is already a thread on this feel, free to merge

Apologies If there is already a thread on this feel, free to merge Bonuses like that have to be set before the start of the season so they'll be the same for every player as a set value is split between them all. Any other additional bonuses would be written into a players contract as their own personal incentives
CosbehFox Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 It won't be 300k for every player. Based Last season it would be a max of £300k and worked out pro rata for match day squad 'appearances'.
Captain... Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 Nice work if you can get it, does that include the likes of Gallagher?
shade Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 As if their ridiculous wage isn't an incentive anyway. Your wage is probably ridiculous to someone who makes iphones in china!
daddylonglegs Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 Yes, I think £300,000 is a good incentive. Next. This epitomises Foxes Talk haha. Just so unnecessary and sarcastic
BrummieFOX Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 This epitomises Foxes Talk haha. Just so unnecessary and sarcastic Ha, it was kind of meant as a serious answer too. Obviously it's a good incentive. I think it needs to be equal across the squad as those not playing who (rightly or wrongly) think they should be could cause problems. Not only are they not being played, but they're potentially losing out on a lot of money.
Izzy Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 Heard yesterday that Yaya Toure got a £720k bonus for Man City qualifying for CL. But it was the fact they remembered his birthday this year and got him a cake that pleased him most
Ollie93 Posted 15 May 2015 Author Posted 15 May 2015 If it is true about every player getting the same, that's a lot of money for the owners to dish out.
MPH Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 I'll give someone 100k if they can sneak my name onto the players list.
Xen Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 Surely it'd be pro-ratad based on minutes played or matches played in? Can't see the owners being that foolish that itd be a flat rate. If it was a flat rate, even just for players who have played 1 minute+ this season, then they'd be shelling out the best part of £9m. Pro-ratad it would be a maximum of £3.3m (11 players playing every minute to earn the max). £6m is a HUGE sum of money. Maybe not to our owners, but in regards to FFP we'd be shooting ourselves in the foot big time.

Not really, it could be that we offered lower wages with a huge staying up bonus, rather than massive wages and maybe a relegation clause, extra incentive for the players. Staying up is worth another £68 million plus guaranteed, and it goes up again 2016-2017 when the new TV deal comes in so expect another staying up bonus next season, we should still have money in the bank from this season, we only spent £20m on transfers, and finishing 15th will net us around £72m (based on Villa last season), this will increase to over £80 million in 2016/17 (if we are still in the prem). It is a huge amount of money, and why it is feasible that the rewards are so high for keeping us up.
st albans fox Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 we spent 20m on players but we also gave 30k/week three year contracts to about 7 players. thats another 10 mill per season. remembering that we were losing around 20 mill per year and i think we will probably bank around 25/30 mill this season. not to be sneezed at. maybe vichai can buy a new helicopter !

No player would ever accept a lower wage with a high bonus, particularly for a club with a high risk of relegation, unless the bonus massively outweighed the reduction in wages. Otherwise, they'd be gambling with a return which isn't worth their while. The end result is a net loss for the club as opposed to having slightly higher wages and a lower bonus payout.

It was explained the players would be more together if they all got the same as opposed to some getting 300k and some getting 5k.
Bert Posted 15 May 2015 Posted 15 May 2015 Who cares. The owners are paying it. Not us. If we stay up fantastic. Will someone else's money as an extra incentive be enough for us to watch us in the top flight next season? Yep.
