You're right to a point, but a good portion of this is to blame at Stretford. Unless you have your own personal jet, you could not fecking spend 45,000 quid a week even if you tried. I mean unless your snorting coke, fecking 1200 quid prossies every night, buying palets of 30 year old wine, staying in the most expensive room at the Hilton and eating gold plated steaks, you could not do it an even then you'd struggle to hit 30 odd. And stretford wants 150,000 quid a week after tax
The fecking audacity of players too demand this kind of money is an absolute joke. That is 5 times what most people earn in a year per week.
