Just have to say, tis about bloody time. Too many players just want the cash to play for England. This should bring some pride back into the internation team.

Now, onwards to 2008!:england:

About time, getting paid at least 50k a month playing for your club side and then getting paid to play for england? Three lions on my shirt - a lion in my heart mate.

You do realise this is whats caused Terry and Lampards contract renewals to go on for longer? They both want more money from chelsea to cover the fact they wont be getting any money from england. That said, Lampard has been stealing money from the FA for years now, its about time he paid them back.

50k a month? What planet do you live on, its far in excess of that

Although a good thing it's still a pisstake. The £1m donated is gonna be over the next four years

they get peanuts for playing for england

50k over 4 years per player is 12.5 a year which is about 2.5k per game, when u thin they get 60-120 a week at club level which is 1 sometimes 2 games its really not much of a sacrafice atall, imo all donate 1 weeks club wages per year instead then were talking like 5-6 million in them 4 years

I want to earn 2.5k a game.

That isn't peanuts, for playing 90 minutes of football, most people barely take home 2k in a month so.

well for them its peanuts, its a night out on the town.

lets say they get 100k a week, thats 2.5% of thier weekly wage 0.6125% of mounthly (4 weekly) and like 0.048 of thier yearly salary, then you add sponsership bonuses, win realated, assist scoreing clean sheet ect ect


it doesnt even register on thier bank account

Doesn't Beckham now earn 500k a year at LA galaxy (or at least he will when he arrives)? Giving them a single ounce of feeling of goodwill over having done this is just plain wrong. It's like me giving £1 to charity and having it splattered all over the newspapers...

To be fair, Beckham does donate a lot to charity and does a hell of a lot for disadvantaged and disabled children.

On that subject, apparently Real are going to try and resign Beckham has there is a clause saying Real can.

So he might not be off to America after all
