Very good Woody - I think it is all too easy to focus on the X'000's footballers earn, but they are human family orientated people too for the most part. We also need to remember they would play for £50 a game too - just like the other 98% of them in the amateur / semi pro game. They have been fortunate and the ones that know it, live normal everyday lives that we hear nothing of. Yes materialistically they might have more same goes for just about every other profession, it's market forces that gives them the wage. But there's no story in that is there?
