Gaffbear 4,106 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I certainly wouldn't knock back 18k a week to play for a mid table at best PL side with no European fitba........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac444 6 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Its all very well saying you would play for Rangers for free or for £1000 a week, but you need to remember a pro football career isn't exactly long at the best of times and could be much shorter than normal, so I don't blame Boyd for going where he can get more money, its just unfortunate that the club isn't in a position just now to match those terms, as if they could I'm sure he would stay and play for the club he undoubtedly loves.

Redsox1 1,361 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 No I would not play for Rangers for 1k a week.Walter must be on about 20k a week so why doesn`t he do it for 1k ? same with Ally and every other player.If you are good enough to play for Rangers that means you are good enough to to play for loads of teams.If I was offered 1k a week to play for Rangers or 30k a week to play for West ham I`d play for West Ham.By paying you less Rangers would be undervaluing you .would you be happy where ever you work if someone was getting twice as much as you at a different company for doing the same job ? Nope I didn`t think so . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam2102 582 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 as a lifelong fan i would say id play for free.but as it is also a job taking up almost all your time, id happily take 1-2k a week. that would give me a pretty dam good standard of living.

the brown brogue 1,934 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Well to be quite honest its easy to get on the high horse on here and say you'd play for the club for nothing and if he was a real fan he'd do the same.Fact is though thats bullshit, money talks and footballers have a short career so he's quite entitled to look after himself and his family the best way he sees fit.Not to mention the fact that the SPL is shit and I would question the ambition of any player who didnt want to test himself at a higher level.Boyd has given us four years of service, if he feels its in his best interests to move on then good luck to him, I certainly dont bear any grudges towards him (unless he was to go to the filth!!)Oh and just to point out as well the club didnt show much loyalty to him when they were trying to flog him to any taker they could not so long ago...

JamieD 19,311 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 1k a week? You're asking if I, an ex-student just out of university, would take a 52k a year to play for the team I love? Instead of earning a few quid an hour working behind a bar? Yeah, do you know what, I think I probably would. Not doing so would be the stupidest fucking thing I can think of.This "football careers are short and they need to plan for the future" rubbish is daft. Provided you're not Gazza or someone, it's not hard to find a career after football, often still in football. There are more important things than money. I should imagine Kris will discover this shortly when he realises he won't see another winner's medal for a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
