Oxford City fans banned from going to Bassett for same reason. However, home fans allowed in.

Anyone notice that Watford v Luton last Saturday was a lunching time kick to stop the threat of any violence outside the ground so maybe that's the reason |

No it isn't. Read the website of both clubs, & why not pop along to the game (advance tickets compulsory).

PL and EFL in talks today to discuss funding L1 and L2 clubs during the pandemic. They are reluctant to help out Championship clubs - which is fair enough as most of them are financial ticking time bombs 💣

Seeing the majority are ex PL clubs with parachute money - then yes.
Then there are clubs like Reading whose wages to T/O is over 200%! They just need culling.

Yes but they piss even more of it up the wall. Average salary to revenue ratio in the Championship is around 130% IIRC (i.e. for every pound they take in, they spend 1.30 on wages). That's before any other running costs. |

That's simply not true. There's a few, but far from the majority, esp given two of the clubs who would have been in receipt of parachute payments this season have gone back up. Parachute payments only last 3 years. |

One thing I'm surprised hasn't been suggested is that the PFA could fund regular testing in the Football League. They don't have the kind of funds needed to bail out clubs, that would need to be PL or govt, but they do have enough to fund testing and it's something that would directly benefit their members. Unlike Gordon Taylor, for example.

Wellens says the Albert Hall and the London Palladium opens up this week with 56% capacity.
Equate that with keeping a football stadium closed.
