kiwi fruits … should they take a pay cut then every £100 they give back costs the government £40 or more.If you’re talking about footballers, then yes I believe they should also be taking cuts.
this is a double whammy for me maybe even moreso …. lost the whole of last summer not being able to take the kids out enjoy the sun etc etc ..just got back to doing 3 trips in a week underground building up for the big one and a energetic couple of weeks in the NW Highlands and C R A S H..... stay indoors... spend about 50 mins a day on a walk currently about 2.3 miles carrying 4 kgs … target 10 kgs .. now got the route with maximum height gain all of 50m!!! used to 6 or 7 times that …. oh well lets go have a cup of tea and bikky in the garden …..I'm just a retired old lag and was enjoying things until this nightmare came along
hopefully then if any of them need to use it we charge them £50m a day … declare a national emergency and take it over for freeCan you believe the new ExCel hospital owned by an Abu Dhabi company, is charging the government £2m-£3m a month.
Anyone aware what's happening at City?
Very VERY disappointing if true of us.https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/no-pay-cut-bristol-city-4000354
This suggests that City are doing exactly the same as Liverpool etc! If that truly is the case, I would be extremely disappointed, not only in the club as a whole, but Steve Lansdown as an individual.
I do believe that football clubs have to be very careful that they should be seen to be doing the right thing; for years they have taken the support of their fans for granted and, for want of a better phrase, have gotten away with it. But these are now different times - there are many people out there who will see this as a "taking the piss" situation and will spend their money in a totally different way once this is over and done with.
It just doesn’t sit well when they are paying the players in full, it remains to be seen , but at present I hope the one good thing to come out of this mess is that the whole world reassess the different standards applied to highly paid and those at the bottom. Ideally a major levelling off will be occur , either voluntarily or at least by popular demand.I don't understand why people are disappointed with City furloughing their staff? These staff are still being paid. City make huge losses every year so why shouldn't they take advantage of this scheme like other firms are?

80% of which you and I are paying for.
So you think it’s ok to pay one section of your staff their full salary of thousands of pounds a week, and expect the rest of us to pick up the tab for the others ?As with all furloughed staff at all companies who apply.

Isn't that what other firms are doing? City lose money every year. It would be different if we were making a profit.So you think it’s ok to pay one section of your staff their full salary of thousands of pounds a week, and expect the rest of us to pick up the tab for the others ?
Well coming from someone who is so blinkered on his view of Lee Johnson I'm quite happy with thatYou're out of order.
I find your view reprehensible.
