2 grand a week in this day and age? I wouldn't think so. I doubt if he was ever earning that to be honest. Where did you pluck that figure from?
Whatever amount he was on, you lot in your former guise were doing your best to lure him with even higher wages, until the wheels came off. :D

Jaysus lads, how did you miss that one so badly?

It was nowhere near 2k, really don't know who came up with that rumour, and would love to know.

No.

Now I'm wondering if the other two are joking too but it's a bit of a stretch.

I know exactly what Boco was getting paid last year and it was less than half that. As well making a profit last year we are now debt free.

Perhaps you'd want to ask people in your own club who were touting him about for sale/loan and offering to pay a % of his wages, quoting what he was on.

Seeing his pay slip is enough proof for me.

You put his full earnings on a payslip? How quaint.

It'll never catch on....

"wheels coming off"? I'd like to view it as the wheels being re-attached, as previously we didn't have wheels, but we thought we had a magic carpet.

Nightmare day for people missing jokes around here. Shameful stuff. Boco was telling anyone who'd listen that he's on 80k a year last year. Fairly open about it too.

Nah, not a hope. More fool you to believe it. No player ever earned 80k at Rovers.

I didn't say I believed it. I said its what he was telling people he was earning.

Funny that this thread is titled "Rovers Accounts", and we've ended up at Rovers accounts.
