Should players help to pay general staff’s wages?

[bluemanchester]

I would just like to throw this out for discussion not argument. Is this a good time for the captain to get the players to donate some of their nett wages to help pay the general staffs wages. We have a great owner who has invested a fortune in making City the team of the decade spent millions on infrastructure and made City profitable whilst making the players some of the best paid in the world. I think this is a golden opportunity for the captain to show the world the whole club is one team. I think all squad players would have to donate less than 10% of their nett wage to fund this.

The club should pay as normal.
They can afford it.

I just think it would be great PR by the players to show that they think all staff are in it together and they are willing to help the lower paid staff and the owner.

No the fucking club should pay them, we are hardly skint after all.

The players can donate some wages to charity if they desire.

No, the club will pay them, what individual players do is entirely up themselves. No one should be forced to pay out.

hope we don’t end up like Liverpool Newcastle Spurs etc and get Gov cash for staff laid off its for small businesses that need to survive not for mega corporations and fat cat tax dodgers to profit

if players want to give money let them do that its their choice unlike the poor workers at the clubs mentioned they have had zero choice and just sent home

and be under no illusion its will be the poor paying back for this for years to come not Klip Klop Levy or Ashley https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52165826
