FFS just FO you absolute ...

what kind of plans could they make?

 

The PFA represents them, so of course it's their mouth piece!

 

Good ones.

Like chipping in for the already lowly paid stadium staff who have now lost a 5th of their income ...

... absolute peanuts for the players.

That's just one example.

 

So what your suggesting is...

When the coronavirus hit the UK, and the football stopped.

The players should have immediately 'nipped it in the bud' by drawing up a plan, to cover the wages of the non playing staff.

And because they haven't done this in the 2 weeks since football has stopped, the public now have the right to tell them what to do with their money.

The non playing staff are employed by the club, not the players.

It's for the club to resolve the issue, not its football playing employees.

 

That's not what I'm saying at all.

 

Ok, what are you trying to say?

 

I've already clearly said it, you've misquoted me and I don't feel inclined to explain myself like you're the prosecution counsel tbh.

If you're interested go back and see where you went wrong ...

... if not it'll not bother me in the slightest.

 

Where have I misquoted you?

I'm not the prosecution council, just trying to understand your reasoning behind your views.

Or what your view actually is? Because when I spell out what your saying, you claim to be misquoted.

 

I'm not claiming you misquoted me, you did.

If you can't be bothered to look back you can probably understand why I can't be bothered to repeat myself.

 

Your right, I can't be bothered.

 

The differences between the PFA statement and the actions of a growing number of their members would suggest that support for the union's stance is not exactly high.

 

FWIW, most film stars and pop stars are paid by making movies and songs respectively, songwriters earn their money by having their music played. If their music isn’t played they get nothing. Some sell these rights to record companies. This earns record companies money and singers/songwriters get little to nothing as their pay comes for public appearances etc and their rights are bought up front. Can’t be as certain about films but normally a film star would get their contract to make a movie. Footballers are paid to play football. Very few movie stars earn £300k a week every week of every year when they’re sitting doing nothing.

 

As a union man the PFA are a disgrace. Gordon Taylor is a dick! Just imo of course

 

What a horrible little weasel of a man ...

... he makes my flesh creep whenever he appears.

 

So it's the way football players get paid, that means we are able to decide what they do with it?

It's got to this situation, not because the football players have been slow to react, it's because they've been pounced on, by people who think they can decide what the players spend their salaries on.

No matter what way you look at it, and however those people deny it.

That's the truth.

 

It's the Premier League, themselves, asking players to take a 30% pay cut ...

... the public are just expressing an opinion.

 

It's a mess but it's clear that if the players don't take a pay cut then many, many clubs will go under and the greedy twats won't have anyone left to play for. It's debatable if they deserve to earn so much when they're playing twice a week but obviously they don't when they aren't doing a damn thing.

 

No doubt in my mind that some clubs are going to be completely ****ed if they can't get matches on in the next couple of months like, so some players are going to end up taking cuts or defferals whether they like it or not.

 

Sadly they're acting up to their stereotype ...

... grasping thickos who live by their own rules and think the odd visit to a hospital makes them Mother Teresa.

The decent players amongst them must cringe.

 

Oh I know mate. No offence meant by my post just making a point as per the guy I replied to
