In the current business climate all of our staff have agreed to a 20% reduction in their salary. Some are on furlough through no fault of their own. Some are classified vulnerable some are not essential. This allows the business to continue to trade on a turnover of 40-50% normal turnover. We...
But if the club isn’t making money anyway the owner is already propping it up.
Surely there are several issues here, why should players be immune from shared hardship and they benefit from a free market which in bad financial conditions means that there income naturally drops. The level of the...
Surely the issue is that football clubs shouldn’t be furloughing low paid staff that the tax player will have to fund when ridiculously overpaid staff aren’t affected at all. It’s about a shared burden. The players don’t get the sharing bit. They also don’t get that when they don’t play in front...

Circumstances in my personal life last year mean that things just aren't the same.
Nothing to do with which division we are in or if I find the football enjoyable.
