scottg71 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I was told today by an employee of the club that Stephen Elliott is the highest paid player at the club with a weekly wage higher than the entire ticket office, superstore, academy and admin staff combined. More than Obua's ?11,000 a week! I have no reason to not believe this guy. He also said Ryan McGowan was on ?400 a week. Is it any wonder we are in the mess we're in?

davesmith Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I'm pretty sure Elliotts wages where discussed in the media when he first signed and he took a cut from around 15k a week to 4k a week to join us although no exact figures where mentioned.

davesmith Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Let's also consider that the average wage of a footballer is a lot more than listed. Say a footballer is earning 4 grand a week. That would pay for 10 people earning ?400 quid a week. When you consider the average wage of a shop worker or administrator it probably isn't that inprobable that at least one of our players does earn more a week than the ticket office, shop, admin and riccarton staff.

By The Light.. Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 It was astonishing to witness some of the players on the park today wearing maroon, I had to remind myself they were all actually professional footballers, looked to me like some of them were at a friendly or just out for a kick about in the park, not good enough and certainly not professional.
