Footballwipe Posted 24 June 2019 Share Posted 24 June 2019 10 hours ago, Aus Fox said: A bit of potential and a couple of half decent loans and the lad wants 75k a week. **** me this is everything wrong with our game. Whenever I speak to non-football fans who say footballers are paid too much, I try and justify those wages with the commercial/TV revenues that these teams make off the back of such players. And how spending £5m a year on player X is worth it if he keeps you in the PL where you're guaranteed £120m per year. Then this kind of idiocy reigns and you really can't justify it. Either Henderson has the ego a size of a house, or he realises his own limitations and wants to squeeze every drop of money he can from his moderate career before he drops down to a lower level.

I agree with your points in general but there is also another potential explanation and that is that this is a cpmplete non story drummed up by and awful, awful newspaper. I try to just not really believe anything unless it's backed with facts these days. X 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingfox Posted 24 June 2019 Share Posted 24 June 2019 Bloody disgusting, if their shit board don't have a miracle up their sleeve, then I wouldn't be surprised if Newcastle get relegated next season. Their fans deserve better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan LCFC Posted 24 June 2019 Share Posted 24 June 2019 They are absolutely useless as a club aren't they. They did well to even get a manager of his pedigree in but they've gradually worn him down and lost him. Who now? It'll be a Garry Monk type you'd imagine. Maybe even Puel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
