Pretty serious allegation...
I probably have a less favourable view of Still than most on here but the allegation seems pretty clearly false to me.

OP are you sure you didn't just overhear a flippant comment from someone speculating about why Harrison starts every week? If so I don't think it was meant to be taken literally.

It is. Maybe the club should release details on how some of our players are paid. Ie are some on bonuses for time on the bench/pitch?
Wouldn't surprise me if so, stuff like this is pretty commonplace.

Why not. Shouldn't we be allowed to know this information? Can't think what harm it would do to the club results wise. #transparency

I suspect it is pretty common in football for players to have appearances fees/bonuses written into their contracts. Not sure if beew is imitating Beegone with some misinformed shit stirring or suggesting that something more...irregular is going on.
Salary transparency is also rare in most workplaces.

John Still and his squad are performing underwhelmingly to say the least.

That smells like what comes out of a bull back side.

I was referring to you apparently taking the BS seriously :-)

We're turning into BTID. There I said it. I blame Brexit.

When a player gets a bonus for making a certain number of appearances, it allows a potential conflict of interest situation to arise.
I highly doubt JS and the Lord would be in to that sort of thing though.
Considering his performances and his apparent undroppableness, it's not surprising that someone has brought it up though.

What is in no doubt however, is that Harrison is taking money off us fans in return for his performances on the pitch!
THAT is the crime being committed!!

This person also said we’d stitched up H&R on a loan player who wasn’t eligible to play in a game.

We haven't loaned anyone to them in quite a while. Amaluzor was the last I think.

Why would they do that, which club in the world does that? And don't include "because the papers say they...".

Why not so all the other clubs know what they need to do to nick our best players!
