dont usually like to get involved in these types of threads, but i can tell you footballers are ploughing at least half of their wages back into the country week in week out…so yes they may be overpaid, and quite frankly some of them are a disgrace to football, but to compare them to bankers is absolutly awful!
football clubs are run privately, therefore the monies spent is the owners, not the tax payer…mr rooney then gets 250k a week, and probably see’s around 125k of that after paye and national insurance….even the amount left is ridiculous!
the difference being, we have a choice on the wages of footballers (if we all decided, not to go and not buy merchandise etc etc watch sky sports) then they wouldnt receive them, as there would be no market…
bankers, are now controlled mainly by the government, still earning stupid wages, and still earning shockingly massive bonuses for fooooking up the countries finances!
so footballers (who are massively overpaid dont get me wrong) are ploughing money back into the country week in week out, and giving enjoyment to millions over the world VS. bankers who no body can stand, earn money that they are not entitled too and give no enjoyment to a single soul other than themselves and their families…
fair comparison!?!?!??!?!? i think not!
