P. League Player Wants New Deal, £600,000 A Week.

[iansheff 86]

Just reading on the BBC football gossip that Paul Pogba has asked Manchester United for a new deal worth £600,000 a week. Oh for one of the big clubs to find themselves in money troubles then common sense might start to prevail. £600,000 a week for kicking a ball around is obscene.

Don't MU have a another player on similar wages who might as well be driving a bus around Manchester for all the effect he 's having at Old Trafford ?

 They got Inter Milan to pay him for a few months.  lol. Just to think the press crucified Tommy Trinder for paying Johnny Haynes a hundred quid a week at Fulham in the early 60s.

Personally I wish Pogba would go to Real Madrid and be replaced by Gareth Bale

Vaguely remember my Dad going on about it - he was one of the first £1,000 a year miners (£20 a week before stoppages) back then. He'd played in the same Doncaster Boys team as Ron Flowers and reckoned if he'd have been a couple of inches taller (my Dad was 5ft 8in and played centre half as a rule) he'd have had a chance of being a pro footballer.

Bale is on over £600k pw, so would have to take a pay cut!

At least he can score goals

A tradesman back when I was an apprentice made about 12 quid a week and one crusty old sod came out with this gem one day, "those buggers make twice as much as me and only show up for work on a Saturday afternoon". 😉

Unless I read that wrong, I don't think Johnny Haynes played for Doncaster boy's as he was a born and bred Londoner
