Tech players don't get paid, scouse is right.


Well I know of one Tech player asking around for money at the beginning of the season from different clubs before eventually staying with Tech. So there must be some reward being offered for his services. And it ain't winning the League.


Yeah VF but you can't necessarily assume that just because he stayed meant he got paid. And what do you reckon the reason he put his hand out to others clubs might have been? Bet you anything it was because he saw other clubs paying players.

What's realistic anyway for this (sh)amateur league? Payment or reimbursement of any form? Boots, kit, petrol money, groundswork, part-time coaching kids job? If the whole first team is on the books as part-time coaches is that ok?

I don't have the answer but if the ruling body isn't going to provide any guidance and then "police" it (ie audit club accounts) then nothing will change, will it? Is there a better way - anyone?
