Just been on a NIC calculator website which has confirmed someone on that monthly wage would definitely pay that level of tax.

Gross is about £35k per week. Gerrard is allegedly paid at least 3 times that amount .

Good to see that Liverpool don't appear to offer a company pension scheme ! He also doesn't have too many mates by the look of the ticket deductions. The £250 points bonus seems pretty trivial.

I get a bit pissed off when people go on about footballers wages.

The old argument that nurses, doctors, police, soldiers, etc, etc don't get anything like it is a bit stupid, maybe if 70'000 people paid to see an operation they'd get more.

It's a free market and they get what their business thinks they're worth.

The lucky bastards!

I agree hertab, I'd rather the players made the money rather than some greedy majority shareholder.

The players are the ones that earn the success on the pitch and should be rewarded for it, especially if their club is worth 100s of millions of pounds.

Key workers should get more. My mrs is a nurse and she gets paid pittance for what she does. She works in SCBU, and has been to uni for 4 years. She saves life's. Surely she worth more than 19k a year??

I agree. I never said they shouldn't get more than what they currently earn, I just said it was stupid to compare their salary to that of a footballer.

Post by: Colin Todd on Thursday, November 1, 2007, 13:08:20
I'm not denying that key workers deserve more, but they all knew the score when they were training so they dont really have anyone to blame but themselves.

The trouble with paying one group of key workers more is that all public sector workers start going for similar increases, and before you know it taxes are going up again

When you're out on a shout that's fair enough. But let's be honest, other than that if you're not washing the Fire Engines or training during the day, you're being paid for playing snooker or cards.

And what other emergency service gets to 'work' nights and sleep all their shift if they're not called out ? I have total respect for what you do and I'm not having a go here, just giving it some perspective.
