...this is ground hog day right? I'm sure I read earlier this quote;
"It's strange you use a rumour about one players wages to justify why another's should not be discussed."
It stems from the fact Duleiu offered a contract extension to him and a group of other players on enhanced salaries. I would guess his basic is £4,000 with bonuses for appearances etc. taking it nearer to the figure quoted. Its hard to believe when signed by us he was on much less than that before the contract was offered to extend his stay. There was a newspaper article quoting murphy at £8,000 a week.
The key word here being 'possible'. It's equally 'possible' he's not on £8K a week. Where's the evidence he is? The fact he goes on caravanning holidays and drives a modest C-Class is seemingly indicative he's on a much more modest sum
Do people on 4k per week holiday in Rhyl then?That's much, much more likely to be an accurate salary
I don't believe for a second that ccfc are so broke that they have to sell a player every time a large legal bill comes in. It's almost like they're doing it on purpose just to point the finger at those naughty people from acl/ccc/hmrc so they can sue them for their own downfall and batter them in court.

Found this 'FACT' site. It's 100% legit cause it's on the internet. I now really hate Burge, Fleck, Thomas. in fact I hate all our players as they are money grabbers. Baker should never be alloud to play for even our reserves cause he's only after moneys.

4k, 6k, 8k, 10k it doesn't really matter, he will be our highest earner by a fair distance.
Does he merit a wage much higher than the average L1 player?
Indeed. Baker was one of the poorer players in that spell.We seem to have reached an odd point where there is very little objection to our players leaving. Its all well and good saying that players can come in and do just as well but not all transfers work out and you only need one not to work out and we have a weaker squad than last year and lets face it, after Xmas we were in relegation form.

I thought there was trouble at the club when the bonuses for playing and such were stopped and replaced with bonuses reliant on the success of our club.
No wonder he holidays in Rhyl then!I thought there was trouble at the club when the bonuses for playing and such were stopped and replaced with bonuses reliant on the success of our club.
didn't the CT publish and article pretty much this time last year saying either murphy or baker or both were on 8k a week ?
Typical, the knifes are out for Baker as he signed a legal contract. Just as SISU did so why pick on him! Carl has done nothing wrong, the only wrongdoing is SISU and so called fans with small brains who think his salary will be reinvested. If he does go, part of his salary will still be paid by Coventry to make up the legal time left on his contract.

4k per week, club trying to shift him on to free up wages, not happy as he has just bought a house on the Bannerbrook estate.
So if he was offered a contract for 2 years doubling his salary at Barnsley would you expect him to honour his legal contract?
Carl Baker is in talks with another League One club, confirmation that the former Coventry City skipper is now surplus to requirements.
The 31-year-old fans’ favourite was conspicuous by his absence at Ryton today after being given permission to speak to another club as he looks to further his career elsewhere.
Barnsley appear favourites for his signature after he was reportedly spotted in the stand at Oakwell on Saturday for the Tykes’ 1-1 draw with Hull City.
Baker, who has another year left on his contract, has also been linked with Leyton Orient but the Telegraph understands the O’s are not in for the midfielder.
He had hoped to extend his four-year stay with the Sky Blues and told the Telegraph in April: “I am contracted to the summer of 2015 but I’d like to stay here for the rest of my career to be honest. I love the club and I love everything about it so I am not planning on moving.”

But that's a good thing, right?
Can't we just ask him to take a pay cut? Surely if he loved the club as much as he shows (his kids are even mini sky blues) he'd consider a revised contract? Would be a useful sub IMO
So if he was offered a contract for 2 years doubling his salary at Barnsley would you expect him to honour his legal contract?
If it's true and he is on 8k a week, then we should get rid as soon as possible.
It seems like the 'Bakes' <cringe> love in comes from the fact he talks to fans on Facebook.
Do you mean like Murphy who came out publically that he would be happy to take a pay cut but no offer was forthcoming.
Murphy was always waiting for the championship to come in for him, we were his back up if one didn't appear
