Burnley do not pay anybody that kind of money. He would have been on 17k a week max. It was reported Barnes got an extra £500 per week at Burnley and Ward the same as he was on at Wolves.
Is it not possible that in order to avoid being cast as a bad pace for mangers to work at, TB encouraged SH to resign despite saying publicly that he was disappointed. Doesnt have to be shown as left by mutual consent.
