You know that a country is going to the dogs when it's population seems to be not too bothered by the fact that some bloke that kicks a round ball for a living makes more in a month than what bokes such as meself will ever make in a lifetime.
If Rooney goes on strike (like he's done on so many occasions) and demands a payrise, mouthy little cants on football forums such as this are quick to leap to his defense and harp on about what a massive commercial asset he is to the club in an attempt to justify something that isn't (at all) justifiable.
Yet, if the nation's waste collectors for instance were to down tools and demand a teeny, weeny little payrise so that they could put food on the table & pay their bills , they'd be ripped to shreds by the same folks that do not see much wrong with some spoiled little cant of a footballer demanding an 80k pay rise.
People ought to take a serious look at themselves!!!
And as for all parties involved in the Rooney deal, thanks for spitting on me face!!!

Stretty. Isn't there a total cap or something? Could have made that up though!

bin men h=get paid much more than lots of other non skilled/semi skilled workers.
Of course I acknowledge your point that the gap between rich and poor needs adjusting but to cite Wayne Rooney against 'bin men' as an argument make me think there is some wummery here.

I get paid in one year what Rooney gets paid in a week. Does that make me bad?

Spitting is unsavoury, but a knee in the nuts would be appropriate. Anyway by the time Rooneys contract is finished , half the players n the PL will be earning that much

Brilliant article. I am being finished up by work after 17 years. He will earn more in a couple of hours than I will get paid out....wrong

Not wrong. Your life can't be good if someone else's finance dictate how happy or unhappy you are.
There's plenty of work out there, get a new job, and stop worrying what other people earning.
Interesting that Rooney would probably be in a low paid job if it weren't for football, don't hate on him because he made the best of what he was given, hate on yourself for not doing the same.

Nah, there's a limit on what clubs can spend it's based on what clubs earn but nothing about wages.

Ah right, well that in a (rather abstract) way is a wage cap

Well it isn't, because bayern pay huge money, but whatever floats your boat skipper,
