cidered abroad Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 financially as a club by finishing second in the Premiership as the club would have a significantly reduced amount of player bonuses to pay. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03slll2 What a stupid idea for some financial idiot to suggest. Whoever remembers the team that finishes second. What do the Leicester platers show their grandchildren in years to come? A second place medal?

BRISTOL86 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 The clue is in your opening sentence, he's only talking about the net financial position of finishing 1st vs 2nd. Showing your medals to your grandkids doesn't really have a financial aspect! Unless it ends up on ebay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'm not sure if the point he's trying to make is the prize money differential between 1st and 2nd is too small, or the bonuses on offer are too high. Or if he is just really dim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordy62 Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 What a nonsense article. Second only to the 'how much rent you have to pay near a football ground' article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtanley Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 He was asked about what impact winning the league would have and he said how strangely they'd be better off financially from finishing second. Nothing to get angry about IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read he also gets £100,000 for every position above 20th. So that's another £1.9m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmersonsRed Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 I highly doubt many Leicester players/their agents bothered to put in a winning BPL clause in their contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
