Eder had a job which was why he played for Mosgiel - organised through the club. Paying players to play is infinitely different to not having to pay fees/subs and getting gear. I have only ever played for two first teams where fees were paid at that level and it was a matter of principle over a necessity. One of the perks of playing first team + boots/gloves. Bit different to signing a contract and getting a cheque for 'coaching and travel' each season season. Even a win bonus is pretty standard for most clubs up north - but wouldn't expect to see it down here. Still maintain that players down here shouldn't get that $$ - poor investment.
