The money will be a token. The nature of the product will never deliver the big bucks that are available in men's football! They seem to think that the money, from wherever, should be tipped over because they play the same game as the men. There will never be acceptance from those who promote the women's game that it doesn't provide the adrenaline rush that the men's game does. I love watching MCWFC as I do MCFC but they are not the same and never will be.It's not rocket science, is it. Players wages are paid because of sponsorship deals and to a lesser extent, gate receipts. The women's game doesn't attract these sponsors who will pay enough to enable teams to pay the big bucks.
It's not mens football that's the problem.
Go and sell the product to the money men.

This just made my day! Cannot stand Jake the fakeIt seems friend of the forum Jake Humphreys has been axed from BT Sport Prem presentation. I guess he'll be moving to an easy chair for a while...
I know you'll all be gutted!
Also parity is a tough one. Much harder for men to play regularly in the conference then women in bottom 5 of tge WSL prem. Just far more competition. Lower league male players should be up in arms if arificial money from mens tv is oumped into the womens gameBBC article about the discrepancy between mens and womens wages uses City as an example. Doesn't give us credit for pumping more money into the Womens game though.
Why is there such a huge discrepancy?
You need to follow the money to find out.
The amount of money clubs bring in is the key factor in governing how much they can pay players.
Take the example of Manchester City. The men's team is current Premier League Champions and reported £571m in turnover for the 2020-21 season.
The club spent 62% of that revenue on players' wages, according to Deloitte, which works out as £354m.
With a squad of 30, that equals an average £11.8m per player.
Compare that to Manchester City's Women's Super League team.
Its accounts reveal £2.9m in turnover for 2020-21 while its wage bill is reported at £3.3m.
That works out across its 44-strong squad and staff as an average of around £75,000 per player per year.
Plus no mention of the wage cap in the WSL but you wouldn’t expect a BBC “journalist” to know such basic stats. Or the mens team won so many more trophies so obviously earned bonuses than the womens or the issue the WSL has with a wage cap which means s best players are picked off by European teams.BBC article about the discrepancy between mens and womens wages uses City as an example.

Brilliant news. Sneaky fucker. I will never forget him cackling with wio over city becoming the biggest team in Manchester. I know it’s petty but something about this fraud winds me up.It seems friend of the forum Jake Humphreys has been axed from BT Sport Prem presentation.
