    Well if you think about it, top footballers are paid around £100,000 a week which is £5.2 Million a year. They work every day almost, on weekends, risk career ending injuries, get there lifes on TV and the Media, and have a lot of responsibility. Compare that to Miley Cyrus per say who earns $25 Million a year, about 3x that of a footballer and works equally as hard. So I think they do deserve it in some ways, however, there are people that should earn more than footballers but don't such as people in the Army.

    Not really. People only complain because they're jealous. If I had randomly been born with a natural talent that suckers are willing to pay an arm and a leg for, I wouldn't be complaining.

    I agree that it's bad the army get paid less than footballers, but it's not like the FA or the clubs employ the armed forces, so it hardly makes a difference what footballers get.

    Ooops didn't see the Premier League not bit. Anyway, you can't do it with 1 league and not others. Won't work. All or nothing as said above as even though it's only the smaller clubs it will still limit who they can get in.

    Well if it was going to happen in the Football League and not the Premier League than it would just make the gulf between the two even wider.

    Pointless proposal. Wouldn't work, it'd backfire hugely. Plus clubs would just find ways around it, i.e. get a 'Sponsor' for their player for more ££ a week.
