Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

What a load of absolute tripe. The clubs have their money so they only need to agree terms going forward with the tv companies, also I’m getting seriously sick and tired of hearing how clubs might not survive if they can’t get games played, it’s rubbish, clubs may not survive in their current guise but they’ll still be there, and ehy is a club going under more important than a local business going under? Maybe you should support your local butcher, baker and candlestick maker instead of the huge supermarkets if you’re that concerned about local establishments going bump.

If my local butcher was doing all he can to reopen his business in some way I wouldn't be spending my time on a forum slagging him off saying his meat isn't quite as good. Why is football club not entitled to do all it can to survive and try and bring any kind or normality back for the thousands of ordinary people who are employed by them? If pubs or restaurants were reopening but there was a major change to how they operate would you not still try to support them?

You do know how much money clubs will lose if no football is played right? Just domestic TV money is 80 millions a club, you then have foreign TV rights, sponsorship commitments that can't be honoured, matchday and hospitality revenue lost the list goes on.
