    ootball is the only industry that pays anybody more money for being failures. in fact the players who get you regulated. should want to stay and get you back up to the championship for less money greedy bas and teds

    I'd expect someone to mention it at least. I find it a bit odd that the club would tell him to stop his twitter activities even when he was getting along well with fans while allowing frimpong to continue being an utter tool and annoying barnsley fans left right and centre

    I think you have both misunderstood what I was saying. I was asking when footballers have ever been paid more for failure than for success in response to tobytyke57 saying that footballers get paid more for failure

    I think what tobytyke57 meant is that when a footballer fails they often end up on an improved deal, or being rewarded with a good deal.

    Plenty of examples of that out there, but you're right that football doesn't pay people to fail.
