Genie Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 I’ve been watching of his “reels” on facebook and it’s really interesting how openly he talks about money earned at different clubs. For example he was saying that at West Brom in 2012 he had a 4 year contract at £40,000 per week. Then on top he got £12k for winning a game, and £6k per appearance fee. So in the example on the podcast if he played 2 games in a week, won 1 and lost one he earned £64,000 that week alone. He also said that Man City players get millions PER PLAYER on top of their salaries each time they win a trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan95 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 Didn't the Leicester owner buy them all cars or something after winning the league. Not sure how those sort of bonuses work with FFP 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how those sort of bonuses work with FFP There is a rule I believe that all bonuses must be written down in contracts, owners cannot (officially) just give or promise extras willy nilly. One owner of some small side got into trouble for buying the players mcdonald’s or beer (I can’t remember) after win’s because it wasn’t properly recorded as win bonuses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just a football thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted September 6, 2023 Author Share Posted September 6, 2023 I found it surprising that in 2012 a club like West Brom were paying £12k per player, per win as a bonus. Imagine how much the likes of City pay now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
