Ask Tobes, he knows everything. Although tbf he seems to know a lot more about LFC than EFC :bandit:

Joking aside, according to the Echo, Everton and Chelsea are both already accredited by the LWF and have 3 years to bring all sub-contracted staff up to RLW. So the chances are they could still have some staff not on RLW yet but are working towards it ... and aren't still advertising jobs for the minimum living wage.
Well done for answering a post I’d already corrected together with the usual does of sarcasm btw, but anyway, we also employ sub contractors. Our deal with Sodexo has been in place for years already and yet we’ve managed to ensure that they now pay the living wage. Liverpool committed to ensuring the living wage was paid by all staff who work at the club by June of this year, and yet they haven’t delivered. Making that promise and failing to deliver on it is poor form whichever way you cut it, as they knew they employed subbies when they made that commitment.

Sorry if facts offend.

From June this year. ''Liverpool Football Club can confirm that all of its staff and workers will be paid the real living wage as a minimum from the start of the next financial year, June 2018.''

Meaning we are only 2 months into it. During which time we've only had 1 home game which would have required subcontracted staff. In reality that amounts to one day's work not paid at the RLW, which we don't even know to be true.

It only came under scrutiny because the Telegraph ran the story having noticed [a week ago] matchday jobs at Anfield being advertised by the subcontractor they use at the minimum living wage rate and not RLW rate.

Your 'facts' don't 'offend' me Tobes because they're not the actual facts so how could they. Best to get them straight before you comment. <ok>

So they didn’t deliver on that commitment, it’s really not complicated.

As for the attempt at questioning the veracity of the story, the lack of a denial from LFC or its subbies would suggest its correct.
