cristo Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 It's all gone quiet about Polworth since the rumours last week. ICT season ticket holder at work says nobody up here is any the wiser either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes you wonder if they're anticipating money from us to get Polworth in this month. Saints are not going to pay money for a guy we don't need to see us out the season.

I'd really like to keep him but it needs to work within the pay structure at the club. I wouldn't be breaking the bank.

akuram Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Certainly a top player and seems happy here. Do hope he stays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat McGroin Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 I think there’s a problem now. We arguably have too many players that could equally demand a top wage for us. Joe, Kerr, Zander, Watt, Kennedy, Wright (had he been fit) plus O’Halloran and Swanson will be on good wages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlickDT Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 That has crossed my mind- what I would also point out though is that the club has lost some top earners over the past few seasons. Players who had been here a long time and I'd suspect were on very good amounts. Mannus, Macca, Millar, Dave, etc would of been higher earners for us. Steve Brown seems he is very much cut from the same cloth as his father. I don't think he will ever let it get out of hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Also two cup ties in a season against Celtic, with live tv coverage, whilst shite from a football point of view, must be quite a substantial additional income. Minimum of £200k for the pair of matches combined as a complete guess? That, along with a few higher earners leaving, will maybe provide a decent amount of scope to sign the abundance of talent we currently have at our disposal!

SPFL games are but always thought the teams actually playing in cups get the dosh but it may have changed this season seeing as there are 3 or 4 broadcasters involved. Even if we don't get TV money a gate of 20000 at average £20 gives us a share of £400 k. Edited January 23, 2019 by Cagey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as Cagey, I thought that was for league games, but the two sides in a televised cup match share the gate money and tv money. I could be completely wrong here,so someone with more knowledge on the subject might provide the right details... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League TV money is seperate to cup TV money, as far as I know, if your cup game is shown live then you get money for it. Gates are shared in the cup too.
