It’s a short career and they should screw every last drop out of clubshttps://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52063085
I think if I was out of contract on 30th June, I wouldn't entertain any wage deferral, without some serious guarantees. If I played for our lot, and my contract was up, I wouldn't entertain a deferral at all.
You ever been employed on fixed term contracts?It’s a short career and they should screw every last drop out of clubs
Newcastle United have become the first Premier League club to cut their wage bill in response to the coronavirus crisis, with Tottenham Hotspur among those expected to follow.
Trouble is it will catch on and all games in the future will be played behind closed doors with no fans there at all.Not sure if it's global thing, but the Swedish teams have introduced "couch tickets".

Cardboard cutouts and expensive sound systems booming out crowd sounds, supplied by the TV companies, should make the players feel at home. maybe even inspire them if the audio technicians can read the script (Home fans louder than away fans).Trouble is it will catch on and all games in the future will be played behind closed doors with no fans there at all.
Am I the only one disgusted by the lack of reaction by our vastly overpaid players. I think I am done watching Premier League. I cannot support these greedy ******** any more.No most clubs cannot afford to pay the agreed terms in players contracts at this time. And yes players should take a pay cut. Will it happen? I very much doubt it. Why? Because we the fans have made them God's (and sky tv) Football players are among the most privileged in the land, but will they offer to agree to a pay cut, even in these extreme times?
