An overpaid Scouser with an IQ of minus 10. ;D

That's most of them then ;D ;D

The real problem with this is that now the ugly granny shagger has got away with this, everybody else will want more money too >:( >:(

£300k . . . .
£200k . . . .
£100k . . . .
Even £50k . . . . a week is just plain stupid.
£50k is higher than the national average ANNUAL salary
Who causes this ? . . . . the public, by paying to watch it.
. . . . . . but then, I wouldn't say no, just for a few weeks . . . ::)

Yeah , £300,000 a week for the next guaranteed 286 weeks .
But the entertainer only gets paid what the audience will pay , so well done Man U supporters . ;D

I don't go to match's nor do I subscribe to Sky, BT etc so I don't really care to be honest. :)
However what I am happy about is that for kicking a bit of leather about Mr Rooney gets the pleasure of contributing approximately £7,321,312.64p to the exchequer! ;D This will leave him with the pittance of approximately £8,278,687.36p to live on and buy handbags and Ferrari's etc ::) ;)
Remember, We're all in it together!! :y

Medical expenses (hair transplant). Travel to and from work (60 gallons per day in his Bentley continental) leisure (granny shagging) essential monkey food (erm.....bananas)........all tax deductable.
iPad thinks deductable is deduct able. ;D

Seriously, I am quite disgusted by this and, although it won't make the slightest bit of difference, I am cancelling sky sports at the end of the football season. As I only have sky for sports, that means cancelling altogether.
It may seem like cutting my nose off to spite my face, but enough is enough. It's an obscene amount of money, esp in today's world and, although I will miss it for a while, I will feel better about myself.
Perhaps if a good few more people did it, reality may sink in, but I doubt it.

I doubt it as well. What will happen is that Sky will put loss of customers down to competition from BT Sport and so throw even more cash at it. That's how they think.

Good on you. :y :y :y

Worth every penny. :)

When I heard this on the news I actually thought I'd mis-heard the amount.Sadly I obviously hadn't.That is an outstandingly obscene amount of money for anyone to get,let alone a football player.After all in the final analysis[and I'll be upsetting some footy fans here]it is just a game!!Nothing life changing is going to happen because of it.having said that,if offered the chance to be paid that much how many of us would say "No thanks I think that's too much,I'll take less"?

The point that Golf is missing is that there are over 20,000 Starbuck in the world.
For every Starbucks there are 20,000. Man U fans, so that's four hundred million people each paying 0.00075p each week to watch Rooney waggle his ears...
Even I would pay that to watch him do that ;D

Capitalism is based on markets. Something is worth what somebody is prepared to pay for it. What is value for money to you, will be worth very little to somebody else. Roger Budden is case in point, there are very few people on here who will pay £4k for an Omega as they would rather spend £200-500 and fettle and fix it until it is at the standard they want, but there are people who will pay to get a low milage exceptionally good example, which needs no work done on it.
It is the same with work, this is a market as well and if you have an exceptional in demand skill then you can demand a lot of money for your services. I can't see many people on here turning down £300k a week for 5 years, so you are made for life, I certainly wouldn't if my particular skills were suddenly in demand. I say good luck to him and everybody else who can demand good money by working on developing their talent and skills, so they are well rewarded for using them.
Premiership football is a very good export earner for this country, so the more top stars we have in the UK, the more foreign earnings and investment they will attract, which we desperately need to help fix the UK's poor balance of payments, not to mention the extra tax helping to reduce the deficit and contribute to our public services. The people I begrudge paying money to support are lazy and breakless, those that are perfectly fit and able, but prefer not to work and expect us to keep them at a level of wealth and lifestyle many hard working poor people can only aspire to.
Without a broad earnings range from rich to poor all you have is poor people in a country and a privileged political elite as can be seen from all of the failed countries over the last 100 years with their failed communist and socialist experiments.

Wayne Rooney affecting the balance of payments,that's nearly as funny as moving to the Ukraine. ;D ;D;D ;D ;D
Sorry I couldn't resist that one, and what is happening is far from funny. :(

We haven't had Q2 this year yet. Calendar year, Q2 would be April to June, financial year, Q2 would be July to September.

Financial year perhaps? :-\

To be fair to Tunnie, I've just looked and Q2 does seem to be their latest results... :-\

The overseas rights for 2013-16 have been sold for more than £2bn. Over £666m per season or £33m per club. Not peanuts, unless you are Lord Opti.

The quality of the football attracts oversea TV revenue, which is why the Premiership and La Liga are the higher overseas revenue earners. Nobody overseas is much interested in the top Ukraine football league, which only has three clubs of note. :P

Shakhtar Donetz and dynamo Kiev, don't know any more...
