    3.5 mil would be close to the absolute ceiling for us, and that would need to be dollars - not pounds.

    Yeah and the 7 mil is atransfer so salary will be much less than the 45 for "endorsments"/year. They just hid his huge salary with legalese. Don't kid yourself its 50 mill/year no matter the semantics.
