World Soccer: Modern Day Slavery

You are spot on richie. I dont wish to discuss Sepp Blatter's ridiculous comments much as i have already expressed my distaste towards him, it just baffles me that this man is in charge of the World Game. Cristiano Ronaldo unfortunately agrees with all that numbskull Blatter claims but what the United man seems to be forgetting is that he signed a deal, knowing full well how long the contract was for. I have mentioned on previous threads that contracts are not worth a carrot and my opinion has not changed. Players seem to have more power these days than managers and chairmen, but a strong stance should be taken against wantaway players who dont have the common decency to honour their contracts. Ronaldo along with most football players earn more in one week than we can take a year or longer to earn. Are we the slaves for working to put money on the table for our families plus paying the wages of the players, or are footballers really the slaves for being in such a privileged jobs? I know what side my bread is buttered.
