S'all true - simple economist of supply and demand
It's why Rooney is paid shit loads and a nurse is not... as the song goes "there's only one Wayne Rooney" but there are a lot of nurses and even more people capable of doing the job. It is a saturated market - if not here, we can ship them in from abroad. The very top level of footballers though are a rare bread and generate a huge amount of money for their clubs.
It's just a shame they are such a bunch of utter fuckwits and nurses do an fundamentally important job with little thanks or pay.
I think a solution could be to withold a large percentage of their wages from them until they have retired from the game. At least they can then grow up a bit, be able to handle life a bit better, dedicate themselves to their profession without the draws of slappers and flash cars - and if it still goes wrong, they can have a break down in the privacy of their own lifes not while they are put on a pedastal as heroes and flogged by the press.
