A) Still absolutely class and head and shoulders the best LB In the league.

B) (And most importantly) Came over to clap the Albion fans at the end. Classy as always. Top, top pro. Thank you Wayne.

He should be playing for a Premier League club.

As brilliant as he was, I don't think he was £30k a week (or whatever) better than Ward, who also had a great game.

What does Bridge earn and Ward earn?

Ward's on about £30k a week. Probably similar to Wayne.
Yeah but how much are we paying?

The wage gap is going to be pretty substantial or else we would have kept Bridge.
The class gap isn't a large.

Maybe you have a point BUT you don't know what either is earning. The only reason Bridge isn't here and is on silly wages at Reading is this shitty parachute payments bollocks....

I did sling in a (or whatever) because I don't know what they earn.
But it's not going to be chicken feed, for the reasons you say.

Like the fact Bridge has his own corporate box down there... must have been a sweetner for the pay cut.

Where does that figure come from?

The Argus published a story on August 21st stating that Ward was "reportedly on £13k a week at Molineux.."

A Premier League player two seasons ago was on £13k eh? Not sure about that, 'The Argus'.

Blimey don't say that, it would make my 30k difference, guesstamatic, closer than it should have been.

Last season we only paid 10K a week for Wyane, city paid the rest.

Wages still amaze me in football. Don't get me started on Bale and Ronaldo.

Yes it is 'only' because we paid like 12% of his wage!

And players make revenue. What those two players make for Madrid is significantly more than their weekly wage.
