Jamie O'Hara criticised for money moan

O'Hara criticised for money moan

Wolverhampton Wanderers midfielder Jamie O'Hara has incurred the wrath of Twitter after he bemoaned the stress of earning thousands of pounds per week.

The 26-year-old, who is understood to be on nearly £2m per year, claimed on Wednesday that his life was easier when he was picking up £100 per week on the Youth Training Scheme.

O'Hara tweeted: "Things were so much easier when I earned 100pound a week on wts #stress".

He was then inundated with tweets from his followers insisting that he is deluded and should in fact be grateful for his healthy bank balance.

One response read: "Feel sorry for Jamie O'Hara, must be so stressful doing a few training sessions and playing 2 games a week for £1000s a week. #getagrip."

The backlash forced O'Hara to highlight his charitable work, but that only served to earn him more criticism.
