"PFA argue that the clubs' proposed 30% cut in wages would be counter-productive and detrimental to the NHS because of the loss in tax revenue it would result in."
Then take the 30% cut out of the players net wages or is that to simple ? |  | | |  |

Taylor is just worried his wages would also be cut by 30%. |  | | |

Taylor is a Grade A cnt to come up with a stunt like that.
Using the NHS (not 100% of people’s tax’s go to the NHS) to try and avoid the cut. |  | | |

Agree with taking it from the Nett. and that way the NHS isn't impacted |  |

That's got to be the worst excuse ever from him 
I see Rooney is also saying it's "disgraceful" that they might have to take a pay cut. | | | |

But surely an x% deduction in gross salaries is a bigger number than the % of tax paid on that gross figure given they aren’t taxed more than 50%?!
Smells like complete BS for Taylor.
Take the deduction and force clubs to pass it onto the the NHS as a condition of the salary sacrifice scheme. |  | | |

How about having a windfall tax on all Million/Billionaires and companies like Amazon pay little.
I don't see why footballers should be the target here when a load of others get away with it |  |

Well, they’re all already being hit by the consumer spending tap being turned off. Revenues will be absolutely butchered this financial year, which will impact EBIT and therefore bonuses and/or dividends significantly. Besides lots of senior leadership teams are already taking 20% pay cuts to help their companies through this.
Do I want millionaires to pay more in tax? Yes. Do I want firms to pay more in corporate tax and stoping getting away through loopholes? Yes. Is this a separate issue though? Yes.
Footballers are suffering no financial impact. All of business is, top to bottom. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to ask them to contiribute something. | | | |

Ok fair point.
I do think they should cover the wage bill for none playing staff at their clubs not leave it to the Gov to pay. | |

The real easy win for everyone here was for the players straight away to say "we'll cover any wages that the non playing staff miss". Fraction of what they will ultimately end up paying, good PR, no burden on tax payers etc. |  | | |

Rooney says that taking a pay cut would “financially ruin” some players. Laugh ? I nearly started. Were it not for the Rangers I would turn my back on football and not even think about it let alone watch it. |  | | |

those in the lower leagues it probably will, the whole point of players taking a pay cut should be to help the club survive, if the clubs can afford to take the hit then a wage drop shouldn't be needed. this row about the prem seems to be wanting them to pay for the nhs which seems a bit unfair on them |  | | |
