Premier League football clubs turning over more money than your average Roman Emperor have been revealed as tight arses when it comes to paying the underlings that don’t kick a football about for them.
From The Telegraph: Tottenham said they held “positive discussions” with their contractors on progressing the living wage and were committed to reviewing this during any renegotiations.
What masterful word-smithery.
We hold positive discussions. We’ve got away with it so far.
On progressing the living wage. With a gun against our head.
Committed to reviewing this. Some earnest sounding drivel.
I spoke to lifelong Spurs fans Ernie and Edith Goldstein earlier today and put it to them that THFC had all the morals of a Sports Direct Area Manager.
Ernie told me:”Look mate, I’ve been a season ticket holder since was 3 years old. I don’t care if Daniel has a gold chamber pot under his bed. He’s earned it. We’ve got the youngest squad in the league, we’ve got no debts and have you seen the new training facility? I tell you boy, you don’t know your born.”
Edie added:” I don’t Adam n’ Eve it. Anyone working at The Lane should be grateful they’ve got a job. There’s plenty of refugees that would be very happy to work for Daniel. You BBC are filming things that aren’t happening. If it was true Gary Lineker would have done something about it.”
Perhaps the The Telegraph need to be more in touch with real fans.
