Bestsinceslicebread Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 We all know the covid 19 has devastated all football and we know clubs at all levels will struggle the longer this goes on. Are there any junior clubs in real danger of being crippled or folding due to no revenue coming in etc.. If so then hopefully there will be people out there who can help if any local clubs that are struggling 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree holmpark but every team/club is different, I just put the post up if there are teams in real danger right now. Some clubs will have problems but are better covered or organised if problems occur that's all. That's the thing, junior football has always been notorious for the community pitching in to help the club either in improvements or when problems occur. We all don't know how clubs operate unless we are involved so its good to get it out there if any teams need help right now to stay alive I think Black Pennel musta just had a shitty day with no brown sauce available and went on a rant there, not like him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bestsinceslicebread Posted March 18, 2020 Author Share Posted March 18, 2020 Just now, Shanner said: he was right though. That's your and his interpretation, cause both of you must have that high an IQ that you know how each team is doing individually, which trust me, you don't, so you don't really know how each team is doing individually so that's the reason for the post if there were any teams out there really struggling right now and needing help but hey, some people love to be negative and try their best to be negative to others in the hope of putting them down but don't really look to help in regard to adding something really positive to the post 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanner Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Players aren't really in a position of strength when it comes to making demands just now. Who are they going to get a better offer from? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dev Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Today the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced financial assistance with Wages. I wonder whether Junior clubs are in a position/eligible to receive this assistance or, indeed benefit from the many other means of assistance which are being brought in more or less straight away? Does anyone out there know? Could it help semi-pro football clubs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's designed to replace people's primary sources of income when they are laid off from a full-time job and to allow them to continue to put food on the table though. I'm sure it's not intended to also replace supplemental income earned, such as that earned playing semi-pro football. I'd be shocked if anyone's actually making a full-time living out of playing non-league football in Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dev Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Surely there's help for business rates on clubs? Do any clubs manage to pay anyone full-time e.g. club stewards? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
