No idea what was that. My bad, sorry))@hero why is that spam?

what do you mean? Like a loan from the government that each worker had to pay back? Surely not.
The payments from HMRC under the furlough rules are grants to companies not loans, and therefore are not repayable. They are treated as income to the company and normal tax treatment applies.Not the workers the companies, that’s how Liverpool’s statement read.
You know Daniel Levy is one of those 550 people?We keep posting record profits.
We have a billionaire owner.
We are an incredibly cash rich club.
I would be surprised if the wage bill for our 550 non-playing staff would exceed £3m for 3 months - the equivalent of paying our playing staff for a week.
We can easily afford it, we’re just choosing not to, and in the process causing 550 people living in low wages in one of the most expensive cities in the world worry about paying their bills unnecessarily.
Fully aware of how furloughing works and what the business case is, before any of the junior Duncan Bannatynes on here start explaining it to me.
I just think it fucking stinks.
Really? Really? With those involved with the game globally, at the top no less, you think this one decision is going to put people off?
People banging on about morality ignoring all the dirty money that exists in this sport already and you question if people would think about throwing money at something they'd benefit from ...
The question you should be asking is if the money stays in the game if/when some semblance of normality resumes (which feels an awfully long way off as we stand currently)
Of course, you're right. We'll be lucky if we ever function again as a football team. I might just pack it in.Of course it will effect the brand. I saw a brand expert on Sky talking about how companies will be judged for years to come by their actions at this time. Absolutely no question this will tarnish our name more than any other single act in the last 20 years. Do you think Sports direct or Weatherspoons will trade the same after this ? This is a significant moment in history and people will remember.

No need, join the rest of us in supporting Arsenal.Of course, you're right. We'll be lucky if we ever function again as a football team. I might just pack it in.

Not sure if this question is rhetorical or not.I’m assuming everyone in this thread feels equally sorry for Levy taking a salary cut of £1.4m gross per year as they do for the admin staff losing £4,000 gross per year?
...is the right answer. We certainly haven't done ourselves any PR favours by doing what we've done. It's all very well for lesser clubs like Newcastle, Bournemouth and Norwich to have taken this road, but none of those clubs have generated the sorts of revenue we have over the last 12 months. When I heard what we'd done, I must admit, I felt embarrassed.

Sod that, I want to be a winner I'll join the ranks of Man City support. Pots, winners, and people at the top who care about people ...No need, join the rest of us in supporting Arsenal.
