(Reuters) - Peterborough United's director of football Barry Fry has pleaded with the Premier League to provide financial aid to prevent English Football League (EFL) clubs from going bust due to the COVID-19 shutdown.

Fourth-tier League Two clubs in England unanimously voted this month to end their season, while third-tier League One clubs are set to make a decision this week. An unweighted points-per-game formula could determine the final standings.

"I'm very frustrated, disappointed and amazed that the Premier League haven't come in with the financial package to help all teams in the EFL," Fry told Sky Sports. "That's why I plead, I beg and I pray the Premier League will come and help us out in some way, shape or form, by donation."
