ok,k this is here because it does involve our finances as well, below is a list of the premiership high earers i found on the internet today, sources from national papers:

Frank Lampard 99k
Patrick Viera 99k
Sol Campbell 99k
Roy eane 84k
Thierry Henry 80k
John Terry 68k
Rio Ferdinand 65k
Keiren Dyer 62k
Steven Gerrard 56k
Robben 50k
Gary Neville 45k
jimmy hasselbank 40k
mark videuka 40k
gareth southgate 40k alan smith 40k
down to...
jermain defoe 18k

Ive put thisin liverpool discussion for two reasons. firstly, leave harry kewell alone. i knwo he should be on this list but lok what dyer is earning!!!!!
next u gotta look atw hat the clubs are paying the big boys of football, can we really compete?
i know its christmas and this could just be seen as depressing but we cant afford the wages some other clubs are giving.
I also never really realised how much arsenal spent on the stars, maybe theres some unrest in the derssing romo there with a total difference niwages for different people.
Lastly what stevie g is on is a monstrous amount by most standards, but next to the scum and the a$$ and the chelski its nothing.

just thought some of u might like tos ee the list... so there u go
thoughts?

thats an interesting read dawson.

dyer on 62k?? campbell on 99k and henry on 80k?? defoe only on 18? its completely blown away my theory that strikers always get more than defenders anyway...

its crazy whats happening to the wages at some clubs and its hardly surprising that so many young players just want to chase a big pay packet instead of staying loyal to any one club. have you noticed how so many that proclaim endless loyalty are raking it in anyway?

i'm all for a wage cap. i kow its a complex thing to bring about and i can't claim to understand the legal intricacies. but something has to stop this madness surely?

I've always understood that Kewell gets £60k/week.

[Paul C]

So did I?

[dawson99]

he is. they missed players out, making it complete nonsense. id delete it if i could be bothered. i think tis just some of them, not all, which makes no sense. i apologise

Dawson Terry is gone up when he signed a new contract last month and i don't think Aresnal will allow Vieria and Campbell to both be on such high,but campbell did have a big signing on fee and when or if he signs a new contract his wage will be reduced. Vieria stayed at Aresnal cus Real madrid weren't offering him in there second tier Ronaldo,Raul,Zidane list and were offering him in the lower glaticos Roberto carlos,Guti,Morientes Terry on 90k now .

[dawson99]

agree with u there great one. but mostly i was looking at keiren dyer. kewell gets balsted for his fee (which when u look at how much he cost at the time it makes sense, plus hes playing better now) but dyer... no one will buy him because if anyone did hed only get around 25k a week max

[the great one]

Do you know what the spainish lads are on ?

[andy_g]

i don't know - but off the top of my head i would guess that alonso and luis garcia are on a slightly higher wage than josemi and nunez

[dawson99]

around 45k i think, altho dont quote me

[andy_g]

around 45k i think, altho dont quote me

[dawson99]

the nerve!

[andy_g]

just HAD to quote you dawson

[chiggz_likes_owen]

I'm aware John Terry gets paid a lot more now.

[L-type]

Just imagine what you could do with 99k a week !!!
