Diary: Bobby Williamson contract hits a snag
But, in a surprising move, the Ugandan FA has made public Williamson's entire salary package. The only snag is that Williamson's bosses freely admit they can't afford to pay his 5,000-a-month salary and the bonus package that goes with it and want government or sponsor help. FA president Lawrence Mulindwa said: "Be aware that we have signed this contract, but we don't have the money. We could not let Williamson go because we have seen the positives that he has done. We have written to the government to come to our rescue."
Williamson's remarkable four-year package also includes a 850,000 bonus, 1.1 million for accommodation, 300,000 for air fares, 80,000 for security and 2.5 million for a car and a driver. Williamson said: "Hopefully by the time I leave, my mark will be visible."
