Uncle Albert Posted 19 August 2008 Share Posted 19 August 2008 Well i disagree, i dont think your view is right, i think players need to show their quality before they get good contracts (i.e not against a team below conference standard), like Gradel has.And Mattocks injured isnt he, why is'nt O'Neill playing, or at least on the bench if hes worthy of 2k a week? Because he isnt on £2,000 a week. This is a shitty rumour. Pearson surely isnt that stupid to put some spotty teenager on £2,000 a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houdini Logic Posted 20 August 2008 Share Posted 20 August 2008 Could of been different if it wern't Pearson in charge. Of Course. But while he is in charge and doing a good job, let him pay 50p/£2,000/£20,000 for whoever the hell he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 20 August 2008 Share Posted 20 August 2008 Pearson has as said as much that he wants to keep youth team players feet on the ground. How is giving a young chap, who has made not one competetive appearance for the first team, 2K a week going to keep him grounded? I don't think I'll believe this until I see hard evidence.

The Reverend Posted 20 August 2008 Share Posted 20 August 2008 ''Tbh I trust Nigel Pearsons judgment over yours as he see's players in training everyday''Let's leave it at that yeah I actually didnt post that it was my brother on my account. That backfired didnt it. And yeh he does see the players training every day and hes obviously not seen enough from the lad to warrant a first team place, so why would he be on 2k a week? And another thing, do you really think Pearson sorts contracts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnycash Posted 20 August 2008 Share Posted 20 August 2008 £2,000 a week is not a lot of money in footballing terms.Get in to the real world It's a lot of money in my world, and that's the real world. Infact in the real world half the world's population earn less than two pounds a day!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevosevic Posted 20 August 2008 Share Posted 20 August 2008 £2,000 a week is not a lot of money in footballing terms.Get in to the real world It is for a kid that has never made a first team appearance at a League One club, he'll be on £500 maximum. Some of our first team regulars will be on £2,000 or maybe less, players like Morrison and Gradel, also players like Adams. I doubt even King is on £2,000 a week and he has made far more appearance than O'Neill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoneHead. Posted 20 August 2008 Share Posted 20 August 2008 I would take 2K a week 6 days before my 17th birthday. It may not have been 2K exactly but it will certianly be around that mark i imagine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThorpeAstleyFox Posted 29 August 2008 Share Posted 29 August 2008 I would seriously doubt that he is on £2,000 per week (£500 would be more likely with bonuses based on how well he progresses) but if he is then why should we care? Football is a business and clubs pay players what they believe them to be worth. Sometimes clubs get their sums completely wrong but if Pearson says that he is a good prospect for the future then I'm happy for us to back his opinion (and as a point of note £2,000 per week over 3 years is £300,000 - a sound investment if he progresses through to the first team!).
