Koke Posted 13 December 2008 Posted 13 December 2008 I didn't even know Lucas Neill was on 70k a week. 70k a week for Lucas Neill What a joke - And you wonder why WHU are in financial mess. Excellent money management. Lucas Neill ask for a pay rise
Uncle Monty Posted 13 December 2008 Posted 13 December 2008 Yeah i remember he chose wet spam over liverpool cos they offered him shit loads. And aparently it wasnt because of the money - ye right.
dandannieldanok Posted 13 December 2008 Posted 13 December 2008 What a tw*t, he's not even very good.
SOCCERROO FOX Posted 14 December 2008 Posted 14 December 2008 What a tw*t, he's not even very good. Oi!!! I love him.....never plays a bad game for the roos
Corky Posted 14 December 2008 Posted 14 December 2008 I honestly don't begrudge the players what they earn if they are offered the amount of money they get. It's when they ASK for more that annoys me.
Darkzzz_ Posted 14 December 2008 Posted 14 December 2008 I don't blame him. I blame the people that offer these stupid contracts to players. Seth Johnson springs to mind when at Leeds.... " £35,000 per week" His agent only asked for £10,000 or something like that and Risdale just basically said I see your £10,000 and raise you £35,000. Then clubs wonder why they are going into administration. Madness.

Then clubs wonder why they are going into administration. Madness. What I heard was something like Johnson and his agent said that they would open at 20k and settle for 15k or so. They then went into Ridsdale's office where he immediately said I won't offer a penny over 32k a week. Johnson and agent exit stage left rubbing hands with glee.
davieG Posted 14 December 2008 Posted 14 December 2008 Wasn't that similar scenario to Taylor/Akinbiyi/Moxey(?). Where Moxey was believed to have settled on not a penny less that £3mill and Taylor/Elsom went in and offered £5mill.
