If you're offered it you'd take it no? of course I don't blame the players, but really if Theo thinks he has earned a big rise, Arsenal should stand up to him and let him be a pampered sick note elsewhere.

WTFiGO!?! Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 of course I don't blame the players, but really if Theo thinks he has earned a big rise, Arsenal should stand up to him and let him be a pampered sick note elsewhere.S'pect Arsenal have weighed up the pros and cons of the employment status of Theo Wilcott. I suspect, if they do offer it to him, it is in order that he doesn't move to their rivals and potentially go on to better Arsenal. For which they will regret it and also be criticised. I agree "it sucks, the whole system sucks!". Would love to see the people of this country take a stand and boycott, but it has now gone global too.

Slippy-tin cider Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 I would love to get paid a 5 or six figure sum a week to dive around on the ground after a fly went bonkers and flew straight into my arm........... But it is pathetic most being over payed under played and from overseas, championship downwards is where the real football is being played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esmond Million's Bung Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Man in angling for pay rise shock And Wealthy man in owning expensive car shock It's pretty vulgar but it's hardly unique in being an insensitive flaunting of wealth by a footballer indeed you are correct but especially in the case of Fletcher it goes beyond insensitive given the publicity another vastly overpaid below average Premier League boxing partner of Rooney got over another ill judged moment when he was at Sunderland. What I love as Rooney once proved in his braindead live comment after another England world cup flop, is that footballers expect fans to be loyal at all times, whatever the circumstances.

Monkeh Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 It's not fletchers fault he can afford that car or Sunderland chose to pay him 50k a week, Fans should be venting at their board for offering stupid money for a championship striker, There is no point in calling for a mass boycott of sky when there likes of the Beeb show such shit, If sky went bt would step up and pay stupid money if not then virgin so on and so fourth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is Monkeh Sunderland players have now done for countless managers, who have been sacked who was the last Sunderland player sacked?, the players have an obligation to the fans whether they like it or not, perhaps if the Sunderland players were showing the same fight as let's say Palarse that photo would probably have been ignored or even admired by it's fans. There is a time to gloat and a time to give the impression that you care. PS:- They are lucky that they don't currently play for the Champions league holders.

Spike Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Same in the NFL, Spike I love they way the Yanks keep their sports under control with wage caps and drafts, so the worst performing teams get first pick of the kids coming out of college. Can't work here though Only because of greed. One thing the yanks actually do well is cap their sports to make them competitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
