    Can someone explain where these numbers come from?

    I would think O’C is probably one of the best paid due to when he signed by thought Donaldson would have been the top as this year was an extension on his previous deal that was agreed when he first signed

    Indeed - the link posted is not to the source of the data, but to a third party which relies on internet trawls for its data, which it then publishes as fact. All the credibility of an MP's expense account

    Mansfield Town fans reckon Andy Cook was sent on loan for financial reasons and claim his wage is £4000 per week.

    Can't see anybody in the squad asking their agent to negotiate a raise because they need to renovate their duck pond though.

    Did wonder why Canavan was not in the top 10.

    By the time national insurance (which is part of the salary cap) has been added to the wage costs of the Top 10, based on those numbers there isn't much left in the salary cap for the rest of the squad! ;)

    Hasn’t the salary cap now been scrapped?

    And Wood. He's long being touted as one of the highest earners at the club but his name isn't even on the list!

    I believe these are not based on fact, but mere speculation?

    Correct or not, I'd say they're indicative. I think they'll be in the right ball park when you think about the circumstances and timing of when they signed. Not much value there at all and some excellent opportunities to free up cash to reinvest in the summer.

    Interesting to see how much players at other clubs are ‘paid’. Guthrie doesn’t even make the list on Port Vale

    edit - just realised he is listed still with us

    After his goal yesterday, he's worth £3.74 more than whatever he was being paid when he was with us.
