Arfield is a consistent and fairly low key performer. He’s not a game-changing acquisition by any stretch of the imagination and I’m not buying that £38,000 salary story. I doubt he was on even half of that at Burnley, where he struggled to get a game latterly.

Airfields pish couldn't get a game at Burnley the same Burnley that Barton walked straight in to the starting 11 loving all this pish from Gerrard will make it all the more sweeter when he's 15 points behind is at Christmas.

The average wage in the premier league last year was over 50k p/w. I’d imagine the reported 38k from Sevco will be the maximum he can make with bonuses etc, I’d also suspect that his signing on fee will be paid over the course of his first two seasons.

Burnley, like us, is a club which is run very much within its means. It has a wage cap at probably among the lowest level in the Premiership. Arfield, according to my ST holder pals was on around £20kpw.

If I was a Hun i'd be getting worried that amidst this so called Ge55ard revolution, Jamie Murphy is still seen as a worthwhile acquisition.

Minimum 1.3million for Jamie Murphy :lol:

Absolute shampooebag of a player, money well spent as usual. Another player I'd be surprised if Gerrard has ever heard of, so why are they signing him? :suspect:

Got a text this morning saying Barry(8) said in an interview that there are loads of ex Hun players being chased for tax payments from Hector but can’t see anything online
Second text says Hector is also looking into ways of going after spouses for debt owed when assets have clearly been transferred to try and defraud.
Oh I do hope this is true
There's this from the 13th.

TAX FALLOUT Rangers legend Barry Ferguson says aftermath of ‘Big Tax Case’ and EBT saga has left players in ‘difficult situations’
More than £47million was paid to Gers stars, managers and directors between 2001 and 2010 by Murray Group, owned by ex-chairman Sir David Murray
Spoiler: click to toggle
I really don't see the problem here just present your bill from HMRC along with the letter the club gave you as an indemnity at iPox and problem solved
The tax relationship is between the individual and HMRC; the side letter is a contractual agreement between the player and the Huns... he could always sue for breach of contract. Good luck getting anything out of that corpse! :lolhuns:

I'm new. Be gentle.
Wonder what became of the club that gave the indemnity? Why is that said indemnity is less than useless?

You do have to laugh when you think back to all the hun chat about there must be a warchest or he wouldn't have taken the job.

As with any rookie manager working under a DOF, he's not calling the shots.

so that is £4m spend on Arfield and £2m spend on Murphy - Guess that Stevie is satisfied that his summer spending is over already

I'd say that's closer to the truth. No way a 29-year old's getting £38k a week for four years. I'd imagine the only reason he's getting 4 years is because he's insisted on it on account of the lower than usual wages - the longer term security balancing out the drop in earnings.

That's not how a yearly budget works.

Gerrard's first signing, "“I was aware of Rangers’ interest for a number of months, so it’s great to get it over the line".

ARF 'N RUNNING Rangers new boy Scott Arfield insists he can help end their seven-year wait for major silverware
The 29-year-old has returned to Scotland and joined the Ibrox club on a four-year deal after helping Burnley to a seventh-place finish in the Premier League

"....this club is going to be so successful"

Must admit I imagined it was Donald Trump being quoted there! :lol:

From what I can see the average wage is 26kPW and you would think some of the newer players signed for a bit of money would bump up the average.

I would have guessed there is a chance he would be increasing his salary by coming to Scotland. I don't believe Phils figures unless it includes signing bonus paid over time

They never learn

I think DKB is implying that's how it's calculated at The Rangers 2012. It's what "£20m war chests" have been based on in the past.

I just asked my work colleague who is a bit of an EPL geek about Arfield. The blank look on his face tells me all I need to know :lolhuns:
That makes sense though, because his two best seasons for Burnley by far were the two in the Championship (16 goals in 91 games total), where he helped them win promotion both times. He's always looked a bit out of his depth when they went up to the PL (5 goals in 86). They got relegated in the first season (14/15), and he was dropped from the team this year when they started to make real progress (rather than just yo-yoing).
