Kyle Lafferty, Graham Dorans and Jason Naismith play for Johnstone Burgh in the 7th tier of Scottish football. Lafferty is on £1,500 a week with about a £20k sign on fee. You’d need to go to the Scottish championship/SPFL1 for even a resemblance of those wages. Doran’s and Naismith supposedly on a grand a week. Their entire teams wages the season before they joined was about £19k per year.

I imagine Macclesfield have a sugar daddy just like Burgh do.

It always feel surreal to me when I learn I make more than a professional footballer (who I’ve seen play)

He played the first 2 games of the season and has been ruled out indefinitely with injury which required surgery. About 2 weeks work for £100k+ and a club physio to look after you is alright. No matter how “easy” your job might be, you definitely worked harder for that money lol
