It's like asking Rembrant or Da Vinci to paint your outside loo for silly money joke football, instead of real painting. |
When they're already worth tens of millions, surely an extra few makes no difference, that's like offering me a tenner.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
And in most cases a substantial pay rise includes a better job, better conditions etc. Not a huge drop in the quality of the working environment and the standards required.
