But isnt it the responsiblity of the club, not too offer packages they can't afford to actually pay? Regardless of how much some of them earn or have earned.
picture Ben Haim....he's effectively been told....come here instead of somewhere else and we'll give you 40k per week for 4 years, instead of another clubs £30k, if they then look up and say two years later.....actually we can't afford to pay you everything, can you help save the club and write off £2m we owe, but then we will be fine.....you'd say.....ok fair enough, not happy but fair enough saves the club and we can rebuild, if another year later the same thing happens again and the club start publically hammering you as killing the club, wouldnt you get you back up and say....actually no your taking the piss now,
I would be livid.
