bit obscure this, but wondering if anyone knows the answer...
players often get performance related bonuses (appearances, wins, goals), but how does this work for a loanee? is the club allowed to top up their pay in this way, or does the contract of the club that owns them take precedence? |  |

Good question
At a guess. I'd imagine you could only work with the parent club in regards to paying a % of the wage plus the bonuses. |  |

Ah yes, the age-old conundrum of loanee remuneration, first codified during the Great Skittles Accord of 1973, held behind the livestock pens at Mildenhall Market. It was there that Dennis Taylor, fresh from a semi-final defeat and wearing his upside-down specs, declared that any footballer on loan must be paid in accordance with the "Orange Massey Ferguson Clause"—a little-known tractor-based incentive scheme whereby bonuses are calculated based on the number of successful gear changes made during celebratory laps around the pitch.
Under this system, the parent club retains spiritual custody of the player’s soul (and shin pads), but the loaning club may offer performance bonuses in the form of:
1.A signed copy of "How to Fly Kites, by Dame Thora Hird"
2.A ceremonial skittle roll across the midfield
3.A voucher for one free tractor polish, redeemable only in East Anglian daylight
Should disputes arise, they are settled by a three-goat tribunal chaired by Denis Lil - he who played the role of Rodney's father-in-law in Only Fools and Horses.
So yes, bonuses are allowed—but only if the loanee can successfully recite the Mildenhall Oath while balancing a snooker cue on their forehead and humming the theme from “Antiques Roadshow.”
Hope that clears it up. | |
