Are you including Mannca in your $0 club salary cap or is he your "marquee" and therefore not included?.... cos talk is he doesn't come cheap :wink:
NOBODY at west beach gets paid for playing

I cant answer for onthepiss, will let him fight his own demons . Why you guys so touchy. was only asking if you thought it was money well spent. obviously you dont think it money well spent from your reaction

Yes Happy Kopite i know i still owe $50, i'll pay tonight :roll:

By the way with Vista 2nd that means as it stands the top 2 clubs don't get paid 8)
Ive heard that everybody else at vista only has to pay $100. $150 for the last 20 yrs. do you think you get value for money ? :wink:

Not touchy, sick of the continual slurs which people from your club were insinuating our boys get. for the beers they get i think definitely worth it(1 win 1 draw) read into that what you should.. statements from previous posts stating amounts are laughable as are all the comments.If your club cant reinburse their players for the time and effort that their skills enable your club to try and go forward that is your problem.and if you cant handle the fact that most div1 & some div 2 clubs run in a way as to reward their players effort then tough luck to you. I take it your communist!! :roll: :roll:

When Gully beat us last Sunday their club bought them beers from our Bar - which rewarded their players and made our club (or South Adelaide) some money! If we win on Sunday I will be doing the same at Plympton hardly paying players

Boring! :( yet another stimulating topic :roll: get over it beachbum!!. Simon who now plays for you,played at our club for 2 years, all the while living down your way,caught up with him at the cup game and still loves the club and without a doubt would be back here if he lived closer! As it has just been said good clubs look after their players.Perhaps look after your team the way you look after Manca :oops: .But if you want to continue flogging a dead horse, go back through the old topics and drag out some more old fasinating topics :shock: ....cant wait!

It must be a good club cause Simon (Or Trevor as he is known to us) use to catch a bus up to you guys for training, the crazy b#stard. I hope you guys forked out for bus tickets :D

No one gets paid at beach, even Manca. Saying that though, I think it's a great idea that clubs reward their players with free p!ss after the game. If they put in the hard yards for the club, then its great that they get rewarded & it shows the clubs appreciation for their effort.

I think your right gothetoffees.

How about if the lads do OK the coach buys everyone a beer.

If the team plays rubbish they can all chip in and buy the coach a beer.

Just one beer for the coach if the lads play rubbish? Think more would be required :D Good idea though.

There are some clubs that pay and some pay big money.

For the first time in our history we are paying players based on training and results. The only reason is because a sponsor wanted the money to be used for this reason. Its a small amount but most of the boys spend it back over the bar and BBQ anyway so it ends up back at the club.

If you think soccer is bad, ask how much some Div 2-3 players in Aussie Rules are getting paid. I have a couple of mates who play in a Div 2 team that hasn't won a game this year and he is on $400 per game. Remember they have more players than soccer also. :shock:

I think Beachbum you should start paying your players as most of them will need to top up their pensions. Perhaps you could even invest in a fitness coach.

As for what do we do about the ref situation, you have a whole team down there that should start doing the course as they can't run anymore......a 5 nil whipping in the cup, I havent seen a more convincing win since junior days

Pilots,

We have a Fitness Coach..it is just no one turns up to training :D

5-0 is a very good result...but i wouldn't read too much into. It was a stupid day to have a match and A's and B's were stretched for players!see you in a couple of weeks for the return..

He's actually old and fat, :shock: he could do with a fitness trainer himself. :lol:

Not a bad player though.
I'm very happy to have moved to West Ham, because I can play for a better team than Sheffield Wednesday.

Many clubs flash money to attract players and get sweet F A, OTHERS work on getting a group of players that gell. THEN your club has a chance at winning SUN DIV ONE, the only division that MATTERS. Money is EVIL flash too much and risk your clubs future. Spend some but be careful THE TAX MAN AND THE FFSA are watching, keep your books up to-date. GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL :D
