Plunge Penguin wrote:Certainly can see both sides to this one. Was given coin by my last club and it was at a time when very much needed - was working part time and only just paying the bills until that happened. Not a huge amount, but enough to pay the rent and a bit more each week, so it really encouraged me to put more into the place. It helped they were a good bunch of blokes, but given we finished near bottom that year, it wasn't like I was chasing success solely.
On the flipside, have seen plenty of players who, as someone said, walked in with 20 mins before game start, play a medium game, hold out their hand to the president at the end and then drive off - not putting a cent back into the club and not being seen again the next year. Mercanaries like that can be real trouble, but it comes down to the judgment of the coach and match committee with that one. Pick the right blokes that will stick around - married blokes with families tend to stay around, due to finding the right people to mix with at the end of the game. A number of wan*ers out there that are just in it for the money, no doubt, and these blokes won't help at all in the medium term, but there are also plenty who, for one reason or another, don't have the requirements of a 9-5 job, commit fully to something they ARE very good at, and try their best.

A bit of tongue in cheek there jingles. I think the worst comment is the topic itself.

They're just jealous of others getting money and avoid questioning their own ability by taking a 'moral' stance as otherwise they would be lead to the inevitable conclusion that they can't play.
