Hamilton Academical.

Good bit of fun! 

Everyone please watch season 2 of Sunderland Til I Die on Netflix.
 

My friend edited the programme and the more views it gets, the more likely there’ll be another season and therefore work for him to do (once this pandemic is over anyway!) .

But 80% paid by the Government and only 20% by Liverpool.  Shocking!

Absolutely disgraceful this. We better not go this way. Still no pay cut for players and the government is now having to pay for 80% of normal staff's wages. 

The greed in football is astounding!

They made record profits last year and are now making us subsidize them for more profit. Hope they get hit by a windfall tax, they could easily cover these wages themselves. This is for genuinely struggling companies.

Funny how they're now all too keen to take money from the Tories

I binged it the day it came out! Loved the first one and loved this one too.

The few people in Liverpool with jobs too...

If true, this is disgraceful. How far would £3 million go to paying non-playing staff at Spurs. 

So it seems ‘we’re Scouse not English’ only applies when they’re not sponging off the UK tax payers’ money. I really hope Chelsea don’t go down this road but it’s a football club so I’m not counting on principal or ethics. Either way, I hope the government is smart enough to recoup this money with interest by applying a huge windfall tax to future the income of these vile clubs on future television income. The way these clubs are acting I am giving less and less of a f**k about football returning.

Yup. As if anyone needed more of a reason to hate Spurs or Liverpool...

I hope we don't go down that road. Roman giving the hotel to the NHS suggests he might not be quite as selfish. He also has a visa to try and get back... Can you imagine the frenzy from the press if we were to take that road.

I really do think that if Chelsea do this, I will be finished.  I don't say that lightly, I love our club but there are principles here and it will be unforgivable to pay ridiculous transfer fees and salaries to players and then claim government assistance.  Corrupt.

Liverpool fans if they sing you'll never walk alone after the club put some of their staff on furlough it makes that song even more annoying and patently not true.

Considering Roman's long history of quiet altruism I would be very surprised if Chelsea followed those clubs, Roman is a very different man than Joe Lewis, or the people behind FSG. 

 

Bloomberg names Roman Abramovich Russia's most charitable billionaire

Quote

The oligarch has donated $310 million to philanthropic causes over the past three years, bringing his total to more than $2.5 billion from 2000-2012.

CEO of Millhouse Capital and owner of the Chelsea Football Club, Roman Abramovich has earned the title of the most charitable Russian billionaire of the past three years. Bloomberg states he has donated approximately $310 million of his $12.8 billion fortune in that period.

According to the Bloomberg, the 46-year-old billionaire has given more to charity than any of Russia's 15 wealthiest people. About $98 million was spent on social projects in Chukotka, a Russian region where he used to be governor.

Like I said, quite different to Joe Lewis or FSG.

I'm trying to put rivalry aside as this is much bigger issue and tomorrow we might hear Chelsea are doing exactly the same thing so I'm wary of having a go at certain clubs and it is luck of the draw who your club's owners are and their ethics. Ken Bates would probably have had the staff furloughed weeks ago.

That said, Liverpool's title (assuming the league is finished), is tainted forever by this and they will no longer be able to sing their sentimental dirge You'll Never Walk Alone with a straight face. Perhaps give the NHS the title instead.

It will be interesting to see how player pay cuts will play out now, seeing as they are refusing it. That's all well and good but some clubs are going to soon start running out of cash if they don't, so instead of a 30% cut they might find themselves having to take more.

Atletico asked their players to take 70 percent. Players like Saul are organising support for small businesses on top of that. 

Juve's players led by Chiellini negotiated a big cut too. 

I think it may well be that individual clubs and players who start to make offers rather than it being a PFA decision. 

If Chelsea do it then I will be equally as disgusted as I am by Spurs/ Liverpool etc doing it, this scheme surely wasnt created to assist billionaire backed football clubs for f**ks sake. But I dont think we will, we were one of the first (if not the first?) clubs to raise our staff wages from basic wage to living wage I think, we do as a club see to look after our own.
