In simple terms, virtually all staff members will be put on a temporary leave of absence – with 80% of their wages (up to the cap) being fulfilled by the government.

Understandable. I’d guess it isn’t the players due to their contracts but I don’t know?
Good of the club yo top up wages for March and April so everyone gets full pay for those months

It’s good that us taxpayers are bailing out a couple of American/US based multi millionaires.

MrB said "I’ve never seen or heard that word before!! I thought we signed Paul Furlong!!".....It's an Americanism that is creeping into our language. A bit like the totally meaningless word the Yank love:- " Facility"
