If that leaves us with the Youth Team so be it. Wage deferral is a complete mirage of savings. The money the club is losing just now is not money we will recover in the future, so where on earth is the club supposed to get the money to pay back this accrued debt when the game resumes?

He should be telling them to insist on full pay until the money runs out and they could then get a 100% pay cut.

Brave Hearts Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Everyone else is having to take cuts and reductions in an effort to help their company or organisation to survive. These sacrifices are being done so we all hope we have jobs to go back to. This is reality, and football players plus their union are showing a total disrespect and disregard to the sacrifices other people around the world are taking to assist continuation of their employers. They seem to think they have a divine right to get full pay and do not understand that this will bleed their club dry and threatened the existence of the club. Do they care ? Seems like they don’t. As long as they get their money in the end. They are also so egoistic and self centred that they don’t seem realise that it’s the ordinary people making the sacrifices are the ones that ultimately pay their wages. Yes footballers, we all have financial commitments and outgoings like mortgages, rents, food to buy, its just that you receive a lot more money to pay them in the first place. My club needs to survive and is more important to me than any player, so as far as I am concerned any player that doesn’t and won’t take a pay cut then ......bye bye. Especially within this bunch of players who have not performed nor put the effort in to justify the salaries that our club are paying them. They seem to be oblivious that the fans paying their wages are taking cuts, their clubs have no money coming in, yet continue to bite the hands that feed them. Show a bit of gratitude and humility towards your wage payers of us supporters and your clubs. Do what everyone else is having to do, or just take your big salary and football boots to somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Article 12 is an agreement with the football authorities, i.e. the SPFL which does allow us to suspend players’ wages. The SPFL have even confirmed this to players! The only grey area would appear to be whether or not FIFA would get involved and overrule it but do the SPFA / players really want to take that chance? You keep mentioning the administration season - it’s got absolutely nothing to do with administration. The club didn’t invoke Article 12 back then, I don’t even know if it existed, so that comparison is irrelevant.

Vlad Magic Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I’m not prepared to criticise the players just yet. A decision like the one being asked is difficult to make quickly. Unless of course you are 100% certain you are financially secure enough to do so as is the case with Naismith. The other players will need to evaluate exactly what there revenues and outgoings are. Do their partners contribute? What are their total monthly liabilities? It would be foolish to simply agree to something that may have significant financial implications further down the line. We also don’t know (as far as I am aware) who or how many have refused or agreed? There appears to be a lot of assumptions being made here.
