They say that the job retention scheme which starts in November doesn't apply to that category of worker. Are football clubs covered by this scheme and if so, how much money will they get?

SpruceBringsteen Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 Shitty little disease of a club that would be missed by precisely zero people outside of the stunted mutants that infest the shanty town. As has been said though, if they can ration their fat ****ing mess of a chairman down to 8 or 9 square meals a day that could save them a few thousand and a bit of respite. Good luck with that, of course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some Ibrox fans have pinpointed Dundee United chairman Stephen Thompson as being one of the most outspoken figures on the subject of relaunched Rangers seeking membership of the top flight in the summer. And the Assembly is still angered by Thompson's refusal to refund Rangers fans for tickets when a match at Tannadice in November 2009 was abandoned at half-time because of a waterlogged pitch."

neilnunb Posted October 28 Author Share Posted October 28 2 hours ago, Midloth_Iain said: DUNDEE UNITED have today opened talks with manager Micky Mellon and his players over drastic wage cuts. SunSport Online can reveal the cash-strapped Tannadice club are desperate to slash their salary bill. And they’ve approached boss Mellon, his backroom staff and players to ask them to accept a 20 percent drop in money until the end of the season. Crucially, though, it’s believed the club’s bid to halt spiralling costs does NOT include their summer signings. Ryan Edwards and Jeando Fuchs have been given big money contracts. But it’s understood the club doesn’t expect them to accept wage-cuts - which has left their team-mates stunned. Questions have also been asked given United have just recently signed one-time Scotland striker Marc McNulty on loan from Reading - which is understood to cost them around £5,000-a-week. As yet no agreement has been struck between the club and the United squad. But Tannadice chief Tony Ashgar is hopeful Mellon and his players will agree to the deal being proposed for the next six months. United’s serious cash worries have mounted because of the Covid-19 crisis with no gate money being earned. It’s heaped huge pressure on the club with boardroom bosses now left with no option but to look to slash costs. United have several players coming through their youth academy who are seen as big assets with kids Kerr Smith and Logan Chalmers being watched by a number of top clubs. The desperate situation could also see them forced to sell Scotland star Lawrence Shankland to the highest bidder when the January transfer window opens. Goalkeeper Benji Siegrist has also been attracting attention for his fine performances this season. Article has been updated: United owner Mark Ogren last night broke months of silence to insist he remains committed to the club. But has warned his pot of cash isn’t limitless. He said: “I’ve got limited funds. We need to figure this out. “But I don’t want to scare people into thinking we’re going away because that is not the case. "We’re going to figure this out but we’ll need help from the government, our fans and everybody at the club. “The first phase we had budgeted for so we anticipated it but we didn’t budget for this second phase. “It has no effect on my commitment to Dundee United. We are absolutely not up for sale.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites
