Think of him as a Starbucks to get a better picture.
Ah, so youre saying that if he took a wage they would tax all his income, in that case fair play :)

Not quite. As he only signed a 5 month contract he wouldn't be liable for full tax. By giving his basic salary away to charidee he can offset it elsewhere.

In France it is 75% for those who earn over a million. Posh's tax also comes into the equation over there too.
Waiting for Raj to shaft them!

Not many people know this but apparently he also sacrifices a cute fluffy kitten to the God of Rain for every £1 he gives to charity.

He fucking hates rain!

If I was paying advisors what I expect he is, I'd hope they'd be bloody astute!

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.

Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.
