        I wonder how most pros woUld react to being offered low basic wages with large bonuses (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, May 9, 20:33:59

        Doesn't matter what the players would make of it (NCFC) - King, May 9, 20:36:06
        
        that depends on the contracts the players sign with them (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, May 9, 20:39:47
