Minimum wage is about £390 a week. Let’s be generous and say a fraction above is 20% uplift which suggests Butterfield was offered about £470 a week or circa £25.5k a year.
If it’s a 65% reduction that means he was on about £70k a year or about £1,350 a week.
I can believe the £70k and probably think he was worth that.
Not sure I believe the club would offer a player to drop from £1,350 a week to £470. If it is true then I would agree with Mrs B that the message is they don’t want him.
That is of course is if it actually is Mrs B on Facebook. Never used it myself but am told it’s quite easy to pretend you’re someone else on Facebook and that occasionally people tell porkies on there.
