Why the fuck does anyone in his shoes need living expenses on top of an already lucrative deal?! Phil Spencer is a fucking crook (assuming he was involved in the deal, which I suspect)

Presumably this was all agreed at the time that JW was pandering to every whim of di Canio, before Black put his foot down and reflects the desire to have championship standard players, so paying championship standard wages. You can just imagine how these talks will go. "Well, Adam, we know you've got a contract to pay you £800k over the next 2 years, but we wondered if you'd like to give up, shall we say half of this because it would be really helpful to us if you did." |

Phil Spencer IS (allegedly) a cunt.

There are probably Premiership players on 8k a week, I'm absolutely staggered (although not surprised) that our old board would think that Adam Rooney was worth paying 8k a week.

£400k a year, so almost a quarter of our wage budget on one player.

No wonder Jed wants to negotiate it! So if Gary Roberts is on similar cash, thats around half our wage budget on 2 players.  |

Define "quarter". |

And we're sure Paolo didn't think we were signing Wayne?

Well, it's what you wanted...
Of course. I've often said we should pay our players 8k a week. All of them in fact. I've definitely said that on numerous occasions. |

It's just plain reckless... from PDC, Spencer, Wray, Black and anyone else who knew/signed it off. Fucking lunacy.

IIRC, £8k per week was Blackpool's limit in the Premiership. |

Particularly when at least three of those four knew they wouldn't be around until the end of that contract. |

So why has it taken Jed 4 months to decide he wants this conversation when he arrangement will have been in place all along?
