'The PFA is understood to be resisting deferment of players’ wages until negotiations have been held with clubs individually'....dont just say clubs...say clubs and players

SouthamptonFC is desperate for money, the only club making so much noise to complete the season. Lives do not matter to them. When coffins are being filled up, these clubs care only about filling their coffers.

The footballers do their job, play football and entertain. It is incredulous and sickening that the politicians who have left countries all around the world unprepared for a pandemic, try and shift attention away from themselves.

Have the players at any club offered to take a cut to support the non-playing staff?

You are kidding! The one group of people who could afford to support themselves for years and pay the club staff themselves! That is beyond shocking.

There's no morals when money is above everything else.

Look at the really amazing things CPFC are doing for the community please.
