pete 318 Posted April 4, 2020 Danny Rose on the BBC in his article it states the following: The Premier League has agreed to use the wage cuts to advance £125m to the EFL and National League, and give £20m towards the NHS. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52163997 Surely this is wrong the PL does not pay the players the money saved surely will benefit the clubs by saving them money. If they then use the money saved to help others fair enough e.g. NHS or furloughed staff. How will the clubs deal with this windfall? And if I am wrong and PL can use player wages to impress with its largess then this is just wrong. One last comment a wage deferral is not a pay cut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted April 4, 2020 The word deferral is as equally disgusting as not bothering. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted April 4, 2020 That article is as clear as mud. Are the 30% player wage cuts to cover the previously announced P145m from the EPL to the NHS and EFL, or is it to cover the EPL’s expected revenue drop from loss of gates / loss of TV rights fees?
