Jimmy Bullard "wages" at Hull City. Good heavens!

Hull City paid Bullard millions by "mistake".
https://uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/jimmy-bullard-hull-city-paid-173328431.html
"We had the chat before with the club, he’s obviously gone away to talk to the club, and the contract was £40,000 a week. And I was like ‘yeah, blinding contract, let’s sign it." Bullard said.
"I’ve gone to sign it, I see on the paperwork it says £50,000. So I’ve passed it under the table to my agent, my agent’s gone: ‘yeah, that’s a misprint, sign it
"As I’ve signed it, I blew it dry, and then I read under it as well, another £5000 or £6000 appearance, whatever it was.
"And he’s said: ‘yeah, just sign it, just sign it’, and blew it dry,’ he added.
"This club is chucking it away like confetti, that’s a joke. So I was on £55,000 a week from £40,000.

Not sure what he's done wrong here?
Despite the fact I used to like him until he showed himself up to be a nasty annoying little cunt.

I can't see how this (if true), is the fault of the legal team.
Their job isn't to tell Hull what they want to pay, but to ensure they pay what they want to pay.
If Hull tell them they want to pay more than they REALLY want to, it's all Hull's fault.

It sounds like an exaggeration but you'd have to hear Hull's side of the story.
Might not be impossible for a draft contract that included an appearance bonus to be re-used and someone not checking it properly but who knows.
Wasn't there the urban myth of Seth Johnson being on £10,000 at Derby and going to Leeds with his agent saying they were going to ask for £20,000 and have Leeds say as an opening bid we won't pay more than £37,000 per week?

I'm not sure why a legal team would spot it? It's not for them to decide what his pay is and what his bonuses are. You don't mis-type a £5k goal bonus or whatever it was.

I was told by an Irish agent, that when hull signed robbie Brady they offered him 40k a week, 5 times more than what he was on an Man United. The boy and his agent couldn't believe their luck.

A pal of mine was very high up in the Man Utd takeover deal. Said the whole player contract structure was an absolute fiasco. Every contract different, with masses of stupid add ons negotiated by different agents. Loads of typos and poor contract terms. Said it was like a two bob company.

"Amazing contract, amazing. And I’m celebrating to this f***ing day. Thank you Hull City for changing my life. I’m dropping cash everywhere, I’m bleeding cash."
Originally a Hammer or not. Even if it's all fiction,.. What a risible man.

Sounds utter bollox to me. Any half baked legally employed individual will have spotted that. FFS the bloody admin team in HR would have.
If there is a scintilla of truth in it, I would point to the agent negociating a side deal the club commuted to the player.
The bloke comes across as a total fuckwit frankly, whenever I have heard him speak, so I doubt he spotted something trained legal operatives did not.

if a team is drawing up a contract that's wrong its on the. Someone with a legal degree didn't spot it but a supposedly uneducated footballer did.
good luck to Bullard

Much as I like Jimmy he always strikes me as being as thick as pigshit. All the more reason why this is bizarre!

'its obvious that this agent should be hung out to dry.'
Yeah. As opposed to the cheap legal team Hull got to draw up the contract in the first place.
