Not much money filters down to the Leagues 1 and 2, so having a regional variation might lessen the burden on some clubs, it might even let them thrive with local rivalries and reduced travel costs.
I think the idea is to merge League 2 and the National League.
If its true that there’s unlikely to be fans at football till next year how the hell will clubs survive (including ours). Given players have contracts how will these be paid?
Possibly by extending the length of the contract, but reducing the weekly wage?
If someone is being paid £10K a week and his contract expires in June 2021, offer him a £7K a week new deal until June 2023. Immediate saving. If player refuses, there’s a 90% chance nobody else will be offering £10K a week in June 2021, so he’d be unemployed, or on even less
Obviously this only applies to a player the club would like to retain.
I dont think we will have a 92 team football league come next season. Some clubs will be in serious trouble. Hopefully we can utilise the stadium once things open up again and make some revenue that way.
Did that music licence ever get the go ahead? The demand will be huge.
