On that point - not distracting from the theme - does anybody know what sort of salary we pay? (I'm not thinking of applying).
Anybody know how the bonuses are geared (eg £5k per point, or individual match bonuses for beating Chelsea, etc)

Pretty sure our highest earners will be approaching £50k per week now (Lescott, Fletcher, Foster). Majority of last seasons "first teamers" and the more high-profile new signings (Mulumbu, Yacob, Morrison, Olsson, Gardner etc.) will be on £30-40k. Then the squad players and new signings from abroad will be on anything from £10-30k, with Saido reportedly on £16k (but it will be north of £40k if he signs a new contract). 

Then there are bonuses for final league position, its about £1.5m for each position and I read somewhere that JP shares it throughout the squad as an incentive to get as high up as possible. Obviously there will be goal bonuses, clean sheet bonuses and maybe point bonuses as well, no idea on the sort of figures though as they are never talked about when players sign contracts.
