£45,000 a week is probably what squad players get these days.

[The Left Side]

I am not surprised by this revelation at all, Redknapp played a blinder with this one.

They are extremely fortunate.

Were probably still paying Pires wages and his taxi driver for not driving 200 miles a day

[Small Rodent]

 I don't really show much interest in how other clubs negotiate their loan deals. So are we all definitely sure that this isn't the usual way other clubs do it, no matter how crazy it sounds?

Extrememly fortunate yes but thats just mondern day football for you (well PL football anyway).  Wage demands are always high now do to the amount of money involved in football and there is nothing we can do about it unless you go for lesser players from the lower leagues or reserve team players from other PL clubs.

Pretty sure when Spurs signed Modric in 2008, he was on 25k a week.

Around that time we signed Sidwell from Chelsea and he was on 40k + a week. And given he went to Chelsea on a free, he probably took a pay cut to move here.

Modern football eh.

[JUAN PABLO]

we could have saved some money getting Bullard for 17,000 a week instead ...

 Go on Mcleish , you know it makes sense with all your other great decisions

[Phil from the upper holte]

Fuck me I've heard it all now

[ktvillan]

How the fuck is Randy Lerner a billionaire? He's done nothing but throw money away since he brought us.

He inherited it didn't he? His old man made the dosh.  Judging by the number of times he's been shafted at VP, I can't imagine he would have had the nouse to be self made.

Another surprising to some but apparently standard revelation is that Villa are continuing to pay Ivo Stas and Neale Cooper's pensions.

This made me laugh out loud on the toilet. I thank you.

[The Man With A Stick]

Just heard this on the radio and did a "LOL" in the car.  I mean FFS, it's not as if Jenas has a history of being injured, is it.

[lovejoy]

£45,000 a week is probably what squad players get these days.

I'd suggest this was more like £20-£25k and also Jenus is at best a chanmpionship player.

The fact that he's played getting on for 300 Premier League games says you're wrong.
