Old Shuck 183 Posted January 9, 2009 So the guy at Cheltenham Town -lets repeat that, Cheltenham Town- is worth £966 Million?And, of course, he''s pumping millions and millions of pounds into their playing budget isn''t he?(of course, maybe he soon will be!)But it tends to show that having someone immensly wealthy at the club doesn''t always mean that they are going to splash the cash!

[/quote]I think this shows just how commited Delia has been to our club, to plough money into it. I like almost everyone else wants to see new investment and fresh ideas. It just a shame most of the leadership and strategic decisions made by the board and directors over the past 10 years made at the club havent matched that qaulity of commitment, ultimately leaving us now needing new investment to buy our way out of trouble.

ncfc90 0 Posted January 10, 2009 How the hell is Damien Duff in there? Got to be one of the worst premiership footballers, was ok at Blackburn, then the wheels came off. And there''s nothing on Wikipedia that suggests he''s made money from elsewhere, Just shows how mad this world really is. Doctors and surgeons who save many a life, get paid peanuts compared to these players, and all they do is train 4 days a week for a few hours a day and play 90 mins on a saturday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also, the footballers window of opportunity is much smaller than a surgeon''s, so they''ve got to make it while they can. The highest paid doctors make plenty of money, at least in my country. I find it much worse that lucky boobs who land a job on a TV show for God knows what reason make millions when they have no talent that 1000 other people who are also trying for the same job have. The chosen one makes a mint, the rest wait tables. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was after he left Blackburn by the way ncfc90. He''s had a few injuries, but I''d pick him in my team any day. Doctors and Surgeons get paid peanuts in comparison to players on top whack, but they still get a fair wage, it''s part and parcel of the game and it won''t change. If someone can offer you £100k a week while someone else offers you £20k, where are you going to go? It''s all about competition, supply and demand, and if they player can offer a service and someone wants to pay for it then good luck to them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
