More down to Plummers maths and interpretation of the rules that one though.
I understand SOME players do still have the mentioned incentives, however some certainly don't.

Yup, too much for a poor standard.

Not that it matters to the players

Isnt getting paid to play for FC incentive enough? You earn your wage for doing your job to the best of your ability. There's a stream of research around motivation that talks about people not being motivated by finances too etc

Personally in sport win bonuses should be there for me but in general i think people get overly bothered with needed incentives when actually their wage should be incentive enough to do a good job.

In that case the incentive should be not getting sacked.

Spot on!!

That would do me to be honest.

But that is the thing, sports contracts are far removed from everyday contracts of eomployment.

Performance bonuses [ishould[/i be in use, and for everyone from the head coach downwards.

Dangerous subject we could start going down the lines of football.Rugby is all about passion, heart, desire and pitting yourself against the best in the game. Having played in the semi pro game when on the pitch money is the last thing on your mind believe me.

they are in use above the coaching staff

Money safely kept in the bank there then

.

Going down the lines of football??.....I can't see how paying people to actually perform is dangerous



Heart and desire is fine, unless you're getting paid exactly the same wether you show it or not.

Interesting to get an inkling of people who've never been on performance related pay, and motiviating it is.
