As the moderators locked my other thread, I will post here. Please, let's keep this civil, this messageboard is for fans to express their opinions, even if that opinion is different to yours. I like intelligent debate, but straw men arguments, ad hominem attacks and the likes I will not respond to.
Another poster posted about Harry saying:
"You shouldn't be paying these wages when your stadium only holds 18,000."
And the point is, our wage bill is more or less the same. We got rid of three players out on loan, Dyer left (I doubt he took no pay from the club), and we got Samba, Remy, Townsend, Jenas, Ben Haim and Young, and got Bothroyd and DJ back. Anyone who thinks DJ and Bothroyd were having less than 10k being paid by the clubs they were at are living in a totally clueless world. Young was a player who was supposedly being chased by others, so he is on probably the same salary Faurlin was on.
So looking at the facts, it might be true that our wage bill has been cut down. If it has, I would say it is only very slightly less than before. It might also be true that it hasn't. We simply don't know. TF is a businessman, and businessmen will say things others want to hear. Whet
Anyway, the point is Harry Redknapp said "You shouldn't be paying these wages when your stadium only holds 18,000". I am assuming by these wages he meant the 60k mark around which Bosingwa and Cisse are on. Yet Remi and Samba are on those wages too, and correct me if I am wrong, unless we moved to Wembley and no one told me, our stadium still holds 18,000. So why is Harry now willing to pay these wages? Is it ok when Harry does it, but not when Hughes did? Anyone see the hypocrisy, or are you so blinded by your love of Harry that you won't criticise him where he is clearly being a hypocrite?
