£100, 000 per week players.

[DannyGirl 7]

I just read on here that even Emi Buendia's reported £80, 000 per week wages is dwarfed by that other Villa players are on?

Is this true?

Now I'm a backward country girl from Ittteringham and the thought of players running around in the yellow and green being paid something like £100, 000 per week is something I have always found difficult to cope with. I only get 10p a pound bean picking for goodness sake.

But, having to keep up with the times I will accept that one day this might happen.

However that player would need to fit my following criteria ....

He would need to have the skill of a Buendia, the goal-scoring ability of a Teemu Pukk, the workrate of an Ollie Skipp and (most importantly) he would need to be a dish. 

Now that Mo Leitner has been shown the door because Farke was jealous of his good looks. Now we've lost Mario because he is too old (age doesn't matter in my book, especially when money is involved) and now that Teemu has gone bald and grown that awful beard there are no pin-ups in the side for us ladies to oggle at.

Sod the wage structure we need a few pretty footballers on the books, asap.

What say ladies?

If the ladies fancied Vrancic for his looks, then Lukas Rupp is going to end up the next Cosmo Canary at this rate. Hope his hamstrings hold up.

Looking the wrong way, try left and right instead of forwards 😉

You mean like a satellite dish or a piece of crockery or something?

[BroadstairsR 2,273]

The new striker/winger we are supposed to be looking for can look like Quasimodo as far as I'm concerned as long as he succeeds in the Premier League.

I'm slightly put off by the thought of £100, 000 per week players as well, but is it because we are conditioned "lil ol' Norwich" supporters or is it because we are on-board with the self-sustaining model?

I'm sure the average Villa fan doesn't have sleepless nights about his club's wages bill. Being a City fan involves a degree of knowledge in accountancy as a matter of course.

No.

Don't be silly. Dish as in dishy .... like you.

That is you  isn't it?

[For the future 84]

Don’t worry one day these footballers won’t be getting all this money because the club will not be able to afford these high wages more than the N.H.S  staff .

What's wrong with big ol' Christoph? Or maybe Sam Byram? They probably need some company on the sidelines

All time?

I don't go back that far. I've mentioned two, but apparently I have to add that Kevin Keelan was the all-time pin-up boy and there's something about Dion Dublin that is supposed to appeal .... but I can't remember what is was.

It would be easier to eliminate rather than include. A pity Jamie Redknapp never played for City.

Give me time.

Magnificent - I believe was the expression used. 

[BroadstairsR 2,273]

Despite the fact that I realise that Dannygirl has been on a bit of a **** take (tongue in cheek more appropriate) there was a serious point behind the her opening post.

That is about having players on £100, 000 per week gracing the Carrow Road turf in the yellow.

Does it or does it not go against the grain of us filled with good old Norfolk blood to be comfortable with this? (I liked the bean picking reference, but believe its 5p per pound.)

Have we truly a "Lil ol' Norwich" mentality?

I won't repeat my own posting, the only one that addressed the question, btw.

Yes. Its been a bit of fun and I sense designed as an antidote to the outrage at pin-up girls on the BK8 promo but we have just lost our best player because he was attracted by a vastly increased pay packet (the ambition bit being bullshine .... Villa won't achieve much, as ever.)

As for the line that Emiliano Buendia simply "outgrew us," well sod that. No player is bigger than NCFC.

Btw. What are your vital statistics Dannygirl?

All good players will outgrow us unless we can start to lay higher wages. It’s the biggest element to our current “ceiling.”

So yes if we want to compete in the premier league we are going to have to get to a point where we can pay higher wages (maybe not £100k but certainly £60k or £80k a week for the right player) in order to retain/attract the sort of ok player we will need.

Dion Dublin - 'The Shower Clearer'

A nickname that basically explains it all, Leicester-born and now TV pundit and Homes Under The Hammer presenter, Dublin had a lengthy career in England, playing for Manchester United, Coventry City, Aston Villa and Norwich City et al. But, Dion became famous for a different "length" as Sir Alex Ferguson revealed in his first autobiography.

The revered Scot waxed lyrical over Dublin's manhood: "Big? It isn't big. It's magnificent! I've seen some whoppers in my time, but Dion's is something else." Hence, the tag 'Shower Clearer' took hold (no pun intended) for reasons that Fergie spoke so eloquently about.

Thank you for realising my friviolity and getting to the point about pllayer's wages regards City employees.

I do favour the self-sufficient model but does this condemn us to a yo-yo existence, or even worse, forever more? It seems to be an admission of accepting us as minnows when competing in the big stuff.

 

Btw. My vital statistics are 36C, 29" and £100, 000 per week.

Can you handle that?
