Player Blog

Thought for the day

There’s loads going on in the transfer market at the moment and the money that the papers are reporting is ridiculous. Don’t get me wrong, if I make it as a professional footballer or boxer I want to get minted as much as the next man, but it’s a bit out of control. Anyway, the reason for today’s blog. I heard an old fella talking in the newsagents this morning about how much politicians get paid (he was moaning to be more precise), then in a split second he was praising his favourite team’s manager for signing a new player for 5 million. It suddenly struck me as strange that our beloved footballers get paid way more money than the person who runs our country!! Catch you all later …
