Spurs (8th richest club in the world, Levy highest paid chairman (3mln quid bonus) who are paying a fat waster like N'Dombele 200K a week !!!! are tapping the govt for money having cut non-playing wages by 20%
Beyond embarrassing
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Re my reply to GTW14T
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Its actually not about the players...... For them, they should do it coz its the right thing to do BUT their contracts are fully protected and clearly not many want to be see breaking ranks with their union. The players do not decided how many non playing staff are hired and what they are paid.
In the case of Spurs its very simple. The players SHOULD volunteer to take a cut coz its the right thing to do. Levy/ Lewis should be paying the non playing staff until this is over.... Not tapping taxpayer funds just weeks about crowing about the clubs financial performance.
The whole thing is a joke..... 8th richest club in the world who basically cant go a couple of months without football without having to cut wages by 20%..... as I have said for years. Levy's spurs is all a house of cards....
For those of you who bang on about how Levy's stadium will cement the clubs legacy for years.... It looks more likely to bankrupt us. As always something stinks to heavens at spurs and it all leads back to Levy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shut up with your anti Levy agenda.
The same mouth that slates him for being tight with Spurs money is now slating him for the opposite reason.
Spurs & football may be a billion pound industry but so are many many others which have furloughed stafff
and its not a 20% pay cut in terms of what SPurs are having to pay, its a 100% reduction in our non-playing staff wage bill.
I agree it's very poor we are not topping up the 20% lost but stop sensationalising this Football situation when almost every other big business is doing the same.
Spurs will likely lose £20m on this on matchday revenues alone. On top of other lost events - Joshua, Gaga, G&Rs etc etc If the season fails to restart and the we lose TV money from this season as well (25% of the seasons) then that's probably another £30m down the toilet. This is real. No doubt you'll be moaning about or lack of spending in the summer too!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Business model relying on Lady Gaga and Joshua fight
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Very lucrative. The new stadium will become an absolute cash cow. Levy is not stupid. Spurs will be elevated way about Liverpool for financial income over the next decade.

Not if they improve their capacity, as seems to be the case, and spurs cannot stay in the CL.
It's also subject to the fans turning up. The price of the season ticket compared to the current entertainment levels from joses team suggests that income isn't a given tbh. So many variables. West ham got a huge stadium for pretty much nothing and we know how well that's worked out for them 😅

They are not actually playing right now.
Players that are earning upwards of £200,000 and even £300,000 a week at clubs like Man City, United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal have not indicated onee iota that they are willing to take a cut in their wages.
--------------------------.
Those clubs, by all accounts, are not particularly struggling financially though. So where would the money go if the players took pay cuts? Do you think it would somehow help your average tax payer out if elite PL clubs saved a few million a week on wages which they can afford to pay anyway? I dont understand your logic here.
The best thing would be for them to donate some of the money they are earning, which I would hope a fair few probably are.
Alot of footballers do alot of charity work anyway, visiting hospitals and supporting the Spurs foundation.

Makes zero difference. They are simply picked on because people deem their job easy. Plenty earn way more in other sectors. The money would only go to the club or towards what? We need testing kits and ventilator's and money isn't the problem, trying to source them in quantity is.
It's mad people want PL stars to take a pay cut but support levy for getting the government to pay his staffs salaries, even though the club could easily pay them.
That abuse of a crisis situation and support package is far more disgusting in my view. Not even comparable.
Oh they aren't playing so should have a pay cut...so are we going to stop Kanes salary whilst he's injured 😅
Come on guys...

----------------------------------------------------------------------
also, if the league does resume and they play the remaining games, can they ask to have lost wages paid back?
I do get annoyed with footballer's constantly getting bashed for what they're paid. They are part of a huge industry and help deliver a product enjoyed by billions of people.
If something like a global salary cap gets imposed then the big winners are the big companies. You think clubs and TV companies would charge less when demand for PL football is the same?
Players taking a pay cut now would actually be counter productive as the government would receive less tax. They should be looking at donating what they can, but the only people who benefit from Kane taking a pay cut are Levy and Lewis.

What a joke of an article when your club is trying to get government assistance to pay their non-playing staff
How about your players supporting the non-playing staff
Your club obviously can't
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stick to the article, which is clearly about players not taking wage cuts. There are plenty of other articles about Daniel Levy, post there please if you want to talk about him.
Disgraceful that players like Salah and VVD are trousering all that money for doing nothing, when nurses are earning a pittance for keeping people alive.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
could have taken you seriously if you had said disgraceful kane and son pocketing all that money....
but you always have to take a shot at liverpool.
leeds players and management have offered to take pay cuts and their on far less wages than spurs.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52148955
PL Players are going to be asked to take 30% pay cuts.
Looks like while they were figuring out the Ts&Cs they went ahead and did what they were always going to do. While the OP/contributors of this thread continued to throw their toys out of the pram and now have egg on their face.

Because sandy, footballers are caaants, thick self centred teaaats. I still can’t believe people see these idiots as role models.

Yeah cos if you'd ever made it as a Pl footballer, you'd insist on refusing big wages and playing for free 😅😅😅

They are not actually playing right now.

Players that are earning upwards of £200,000 and even £300,000 a week at clubs like Man City, United, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal have not indicated onee iota that they are willing to take a cut in their wages.
--------------------------.
Those clubs, by all accounts, are not particularly struggling financially though. So where would the money go if the players took pay cuts? Do you think it would somehow help your average tax payer out if elite PL clubs saved a few million a week on wages which they can afford to pay anyway? I dont understand your logic here.
The best thing would be for them to donate some of the money they are earning, which I would hope a fair few probably are.

Alot of footballers do alot of charity work anyway, visiting hospitals and supporting the Spurs foundation.

Makes zero difference. They are simply picked on because people deem their job easy. Plenty earn way more in other sectors. The money would only go to the club or towards what? We need testing kits and ventilator's and money isn't the problem, trying to source them in quantity is.
It's mad people want PL stars to take a pay cut but support levy for getting the government to pay his staffs salaries, even though the club could easily pay them.
That abuse of a crisis situation and support package is far more disgusting in my view. Not even comparable.
Oh they aren't playing so should have a pay cut...so are we going to stop Kanes salary whilst he's injured 😅
Come on guys...

also, if the league does resume and they play the remaining games, can they ask to have lost wages paid back?

I do get annoyed with footballer's constantly getting bashed for what they're paid. They are part of a huge industry and help deliver a product enjoyed by billions of people.
If something like a global salary cap gets imposed then the big winners are the big companies. You think clubs and TV companies would charge less when demand for PL football is the same?
Players taking a pay cut now would actually be counter productive as the government would receive less tax. They should be looking at donating what they can, but the only people who benefit from Kane taking a pay cut are Levy and Lewis.

What a joke of an article when your club is trying to get government assistance to pay their non-playing staff
How about your players supporting the non-playing staff
Your club obviously can't
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Stick to the article, which is clearly about players not taking wage cuts. There are plenty of other articles about Daniel Levy, post there please if you want to talk about him.
Disgraceful that players like Salah and VVD are trousering all that money for doing nothing, when nurses are earning a pittance for keeping people alive.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
could have taken you seriously if you had said disgraceful kane and son pocketing all that money....
but you always have to take a shot at liverpool.
leeds players and management have offered to take pay cuts and their on far less wages than spurs.

Looks like while they were figuring out the Ts&Cs they went ahead and did what they were always going to do. While the OP/contributors of this thread continued to throw their toys out of the pram and now have egg on their face.
