our wage structure
glad we are not getting into the silly figures being paid everywhere. If we pushed the boat out it would unsettle many of our squad. Happy to keep doing the business as and when the right player comes at the right price and wage, as frustrating as that is at times.

Re: our wage structure
If Peter Crouch signs for a full season will he be the highest paid player in the history of BFC for minutes actually spent on the pitch?

Re: our wage structure
Irrelevant, he came on a free and we got more for Sam Vokes than we would have in this window.
Crouch was cheap in comparison to many others.

So we pay players we sign for free more than those who we pay for?

Re: our wage structure
Cannot recall many impressive cameo appearances at the end of last season.
Perhaps the best is yet to come.

Re: our wage structure
No the point is another snipe at the signing of Crouch costing the club money.
If he did not come then Sam would have stayed and when he left in this transfer window we would have received a couple of million less
Crouch also came in to add a different option up front and won the penalty in the Southampton game which salvaged a point

Re: our wage structure
Let’s just keep doing what we are doing....
If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
Are we really bothered about missing out on the likes of Clucas because they are greedy. If a player wants to come he’ll just have to put up with 30 to 40k per week. The ones that come have a chance to improve themselves under a great manager and will show that in their desire to sign for us (which Dyche will be well aware of).
There are many examples of Clucas types that haven’t pulled up any trees since not signing for us. On the contrary there are many examples of players improving under our manager...

Re: our wage structure
I think the main concern would be how much he would cost for the whole of next season, given that he appears unable to play more than cameos from the bench.DAVETHEVICAR wrote:No the point is another snipe at the signing of Crouch costing the club money.

Re: our wage structure
Has he even signed yet?
Lets just wait and see first.
If he does he wont be the first strange, old, expensive signing weve made, and probably wont be the last.
It happens a lot here, and other than it costing us a few quid it hasn't really effected us moving forwards.

Re: our wage structure
agreed and we have some notable players who have signed long contracts which says to potential signings that our players are happy with things at Burnley. The likes of Pope and mcneil have done the right thing for their long term career. Warming a bench at a top 6 club cannot be as rewarding as playing and gaining vital experience with us and both will almost certainly be worth more this time next year and be in a position to secure their families future when/if they move on.Hibsclaret wrote:Let’s just keep doing what we are doing....

Re: our wage structure
Hart is the highest payed player at the club now Man C have stopped paying their part of his wages
He will be the highest bench player probably in our history
Lennon wont be far behind
Defour as had a hefty wheelbarrow of a wage for time on the pitch
Same underneath these is Gibson and so on so its a good job we are what we are these players can bankrupt a club, if you happen to have to many even at Burnley they dont want to give up their contacts unless something comes up they cant refuse, its unlikely if they have slipped down the pecking order especially at Burnley

City just paid him the sweetener to bugger off.
There's no guarantee he's the highest paid one though unless you've seen his contract and know different?

Doesn't matter though to those on here who want us to break it regularly.bfcjg wrote:On Swiss Ramble our bonus structure is praised highly.
Re: our wage structure
Even if we were paying Hart the same as he was on at City he wouldn't be our highest paid player.

Re: our wage structure

The rest just pull any old figure out of their rears.
Re: our wage structure
I'd hazard a guess our highest earners are on about 40 grand a week, with the rest being on 25-35.
Re: our wage structure
I seem to recall our Chairman stating a while back that we weren’t the lowest payers in
the Premiership and that many of the players received pretty hefty bonuses last year for finishing 7th.
Maybe not as much this year but I suspect
quite a few ended up averaging well over
50k a week over the last two seasons.
That’s not bad in my book and there’s not
many of them who could expect to move on elsewhere and get that much more.

Re: our wage structure
Living abroad sometimes means I miss seeing things about the club so can someone please tell me where the wages Burnley pay are published as plenty of people seem to know.

Re: our wage structure
The wage bill is published in the company accounts, usually a year behind, the 2017/18 wage bill was 83m, with around 25m of that being bonus payment for finishing 7th.Suratclaret wrote:Living abroad sometimes means I miss seeing things about the club so can someone please tell me where the wages Burnley pay are published as plenty of people seem to know.

Re: our wage structure
Sorry, I should have been more specific! I meant individual players wages...I just wondered where people get the information from. Even if a player doesn't play for Burnley, some posters quote the wages.AndyClaret wrote:The wage bill is published in the company accounts, usually a year behind, the 2017/18 wage bill was 83m, with around 25m of that being bonus payment for finishing 7th.

Re: our wage structure
I think most of us would be happy to earn £40,000 a week if only for a 'short' career e.g. 10 years, in which £40,000 could bring in about £20 million, enough to live off when your career ends.....
Re: our wage structure
Say we are haggling over a fee if £10- £15 million and the club are prepared to pay anywhere within that but but we end up paying £14 million. Say this player wants £50K week but we only want to keep the wage level at £30K why can’t we offer them £1 million up front as a ‘signing on’ fee. They get some money up front as a sweetener and we haven’t really broken the wage structure. The only downside is how motivated are players who take the cash up front and how on earth can you need more money than that. Surely at that level playing games should become more important. This is why old PL has beens should not be are market but younger players, players who need a platform to prove themselves and overseas players where it is not just about money.
Re: our wage structure
They haven't got the information, this is UTC where posters make stuff up to suit their agenda. Depends if they like the player or not, it's as basic as that.Suratclaret wrote:Sorry, I should have been more specific!

There is also a lot of guess work about transfer fees, signing on fees and wages for new signings. Again, this can suit their agenda or is an attempt to appear to know more than Dyche / Rigg / Garlick etc. Gets very dull during transfer windows.
