It is true. For example, I know you are a witty, urbane, well dressed, highly educated man. Takes one to know one, you see...

It bloody well is, even after tax he will take home 350k a week. Thats A WEEK!!

You know footballers negotiate their salary in after tax terms, right? If he wants £600,000 per week, that'll be net of tax.

Bloody hell you're right. That's a typically astute and insightful comment from the well-informed and sophisticated gent that you are.

Funny, I was sure I knew some twats.

Based on paying his wages alone thats £64m for 2 years....thats obscene.
Maybe obscene but when you think they would likely have to pay 40-50m for that class of player it ends up paying for itself.

It is only obscene if someone gives him the opportunity to earn that sort of money.

If some twat wants to pay it to him the good for him.

Good to see that Leicester haven't in fact broken the mould and the "fairytale path to success against the odds" is still just the same old tale of dodgy deals as usual in football

Sounds considerably dodgier than whatever financial misdemeanours Hillier and Macari cooked up in the late 80s. So look forward to Leicester being relegated a couple of divisions and forced to hand the Premier League trophy over to Spurs?

Still waiting for QPR to be hit with that £60m fine and expulsion from the Football league.

Sounds very much like the deal that Man City have with Etihad, but must be dodgy as the company have no website nor telephone number, the company I work for have neither either we are dodgy as hell apparently!

Football finance at the upper (in fact possibly all) levels is dodgy as hell, but when a story starts using opposing sources who ask not to be named I do wonder of the evidence supporting such matters. Sadly the figures quoted in this story are a drop in the ocean to others...

Plus the football media need to rapidly burst the Leicester bubble as their beloved 'top four' aren't going to win anything and they are in grave danger of looking like misinformed clueless pricks for completely slating Ranieri when he was appointed and then Leicester going on to win the title...

Don't forget Leicester went into Admin soon after their stadium was built, and then only paid a small percentage under the CVA for it.

The 10 point deduction came in after that.

Did they actually pay anything as wasn't it owned by a third party and leased to them - only coming into club ownership when the present owners bought it?
