I saw Gary Liddle sat in a car at Teesside park yesterday, it was a BMW X6,i'm presuming it was his cos the reg was a private plate that matched his name. I checked on the net last night and these cars start from about £44,000!

the answer to your question is more than any of them have actually been earning on the pitch (Austin and Flinders excluded).

If someone's daft enough to pay it then fair play to them. Whether they deserve it is different matter mind, how can a league one footballer get more than a surgeon for instance?

Wish I could swap places mind, no point in me getting on a moral high horse as I'd love to be in their place.

Id be very surprised if our top paid player is on more than 2k a week.
I'd also be very surprised if Liddle is on more than 1.5k a week.
Who knows though.
Maybe Liddle has a rich chick. Or maybe its on the never never!!

£1,500 per week is still £78k a year, hardly pennies.

Do you think Richie is the top earner at the club then.

The "tricks" he pulls for Turner must get him a few bonus fee's

Liddle bought his own house (detached) last year.
David Foley also had a BMW :shock: (basic model 55 plate), before he left for the states

FFS, Liddle is on around £1500 so even if he lives on his own he can afford a BMW on tick.....

Lets assume this thing is a couple of years old in which case it will be a 30k motor car.

He will have put down a deposit say 20% that leaves 24k on finance. Over five years thats going to work out at about £450 a month (plus the same again on insurance but that might be covered by IOR). Obviously he might well have put down a bigger deposit in which case the repayments will be less.

For a lad on £1500 a week he will have a take home pay of roughly £4500 so £900 a month doesn't kill him.

Chances are, IOR have a personal contract hire scheme groupwide and Pools players will be entitled to take advantage of it. My bet is that this is the method that these players are driving all these flash cars. I'd be suprised if that car is costing Liddle any more than £600 a month including insurance.
