Once agaain cherry pick answer

Actually it isn’t always private, as I’m sure you know well. An MP’s wage is available for view, most company’s CEOs and execs have theirs made public. We all got to know how much Mr Crisps and Shearer got paid by Aunty Beeb, and didn’t the Leicester boy end up reducing his own wages because of that?

Aye and in the first sentance I said I would 'consider it'. But quite frankly actually what the fuck is wrong in knowing what a person gets paid? I mean if I’m paying 5 quid for a coffee from Sandra’s shop where she works as a skivvy on minimum wage, I might just take my business elsewhere.

Erm does the second sentance not count like?

If you contributed to me earnings, aye, I'd consider it. Especially if I was on more money a week/month than most folk get paid in a year, or 10.

Well a few of us have wasted time mulling over Mr Longstaff’s pay packet so it would save that speculative bollocks if nowt else. And in seriousness maybe all such highly paid figures in any walk of life should have some sort of openness on how much they earn, ultimately at the cost of people like us who invest in them. Just a thought.

As a side thought, should player wages be required to be public knowledge?

Which ones? And what makes them more reliable?

Ciaran Clark

Jamal Lewis 😬

If Lascelles is starting for us and captain next season then we have serious problems. The bloke is well past his allotted Ashley governed timeslot.

"where you stanin marra?" "Next to lidl marra. FTM"

So if there is any truth in that figure, I suspect on any new contract he may get 10 or 15k per week therefore meaning when he does get shipped at some point, probably sooner rather than later, he has a reasonable current wage to negotiate from with any new club.

Obviously have nay idea how reliable the site is but I’ve seen it quoted for other players. https://www.capology.com/club/newcastle/salaries/

According to one site I'm looking at he's on less than 1k per week.

I stretched to a £2 on the very same, only managed 33/1

Looks like it's not just Newcastle tbh Thames Ironworks??

I see the mackems are in a froth about some young idiot who pissed on their weird Stokoe statue. Haven’t read the thread as it’s about a book long. Durham mag apparently. Great to think we are going to have so many of these mackem arseholes “supporting” Newcastle in the future thoughts @Kid Dynamite

John Terry is a prick though. And as thick as mince as you say, so I’d expect nowt sensible from him. Add in the fuckers ego and there we go.

Criticise him for what exactly though? Being Russian? The bloke bought the club in 2003. Should he not have been slagging him off since day one then?
