This was the post I was talking about, a lot different to what I remembered it being. I was a bit off the mark on how much Kanta earned
Carney = 240k
Boogard = 230k
Ki Jee = 200k
Birighitti = 180k
Kennedy = 130k +
Kantarovski = 130k +
Mullen = 130k +
Alivodic = 130k +
Cooper = 90k
Barresi = 55k - 90k
Pavicevic = 55k - 90k
Brennan = 55k - 90k
Marlow = 55k - 90k
I know this was tongue in cheek but we wont see him in the A-league this season due to him being contracted at another club after transfer deadline.
I don't know if that rule applies to guest players though?
WE DON'T DO WALKING AWAY !
I've no problem having Kanta on that sort of $$$, IMO that is roughly what I thought he is worth. Again for a 23/24 year old that has over 100 A-League caps and has the prime of his Career ahead of him it's a no brianer to re-sign him.
Completely agree. There is absolutely no reason for him not to be re-signed. I will be pretty dissappointed if we do lose him, i see him as such a valuable, handy player in our squad. He does a good job in multiple positions, in a league with a salary cap and limited squad numbers, that is worth so much.

All depends on how much the FFA run club want to stock the squad for next season pending a sale. It makes sense to keep Kanta, especially if future owners are going to utilise all salary options, in and out of the cap. Would love to both BK's and shift as much of their salary into the loyalty bucket as possible.
If that's what he earns than my point about money is off the mark, my bad.
Does that + symbol relate to the loyalty bonuses they are getting? If so, and since he has been here for 6-7 years, how much would that be? If it's 10k per season he's been with the club than that's probably where we all got the $180-200k wages. If he is on less than 150k than i can accept people's reasoning to keep him.
He's still rubbish tho.

You're not alone in thinking he was on way more, I was thinking the exact same. I don't actually know what the plus represents but I think you're right with it being 10KIf that's what he earns than my point about money is off the mark, my bad.

But where does it come from? Because it looks like someone's estimated guess.
Alivodic would definitely be on more than 130k given where he came from prior to the Jets. The bottom 4 players would be min wage.
Other than Carney, Boogs and Ki Jee there hasn't been a lot of press speculation on salaries to go by.
This was put up a while ago by toohey, its the only thing I can assume people are going off of cause there is no other information on salaries.
Firstly the FFA will bend the rules to get this bloke in the HAL regardless of what club wants him as he is a draw card point blank and will generate publicity point blank
Secondly if Sydney FC want him their will be a new rule created so they can have him
Thirdly this will negate any of the points you made about him being signed after the deadline
The "Sydney club marquee marquee" rule will be used.
He's dead to me if he signs with the Smurfs. It would make more sense for him to come to Newcastle which will increase the crowds to capacity and force potential owners to want to own the Newcastle Jets.
Sydney FC have the worst support per capita in the league.

There's no way he comes back unless it's to a new franchise, IMO. The damage he could do to the Cahill image would be massive, especially if he signed for one of the Sydney/Melbourne clubs, alienating himself from opposition supporters.

Totally stolen from Twitter
The only reason Cahill should come back is to run the league at board level.
You listen to the bloke he has a big picture view of it all and it's not to be playing for relative peanuts being bossed around by the likes of Middleby and some owners kid.
^^^^
Below is a quote from Cahill straight from his biography. He is clearly interested in being involved with an A League, even owning one but like he says the timing and the conditions have to be right.
"I definitely plan to return to Australia, but only when the time and conditions are right. I can see myself OWNING an A-League club in the future. But I'd have to do it on my terms, make sure I could do it according to a long-range vision: that I'd have control right across the board ......If I do have the opportunity to run an A-League club, it would have to be from the grassroots level up to the top professionals, the way I learned it in England"
Top three sound right but according to a Herald journo Mullen and BK are up there, in the 2nd tier of players more so in the $150-170k bracket....thanks to Stubbsy!
Yeah I was of the belief BK and Mullen were way up there
Alright then, that's exactly the point from the man himself. Cases closed anyone thinking he's coming back here to do a guest stint and get a token 10% stake in some shitty club like the Jets.
Also: when he was close to signing with NY, he went to the commissioner of the whole league to get the run down on how the clubs are run and whether the owners were legit. Only after he was satisfied did he sign to play. That's a bloke who looks a hell of a lot wider than his next pay check.
Bloke will be the smartest in that FFA room and sadly incumbents prob won't like that one bit and prevent it happening.
