£700 Million Lost

Premier League clubs have lost £700m during the coronavirus crisis, says the league's chief executive Richard Masters.

Plans to have supporters back in sports stadiums on October 1 remain in place, but Prime Minister Boris Johnson says that strategy will be reviewed in the coming days.

So as of Monday no more than groups of six in a household, anyone else think fans will be anytime soon allowed into stadiums?

300 Scottish guinea pig fans getting in at the weekend.

Remain in your allocated seat (standing is strictly prohibited)

Always wear your face covering properly covering both your nose and mouth.

Leaving your seat – If you must leave your seat continue to wear your face covering, wait for the gangway to clear, remember the 2 metre social distancing rule, sanitise hands and follow the signage and Stewards instructions.

When in your seated area, when moving past other spectators, to and from your seat, please avoid face to face contact with other spectator.

Match Ball – should the match ball enter the stand, please pass this down to the ball boy to be sanitised, under no circumstances should you throw the ball onto the pitch. Please ensure that you sanitise your own hands once the ball has been passed back.

Coughing and Sneezing – please catch in a tissue or in the crease of your elbow, sanitising hands afterwards and disposing of any contaminated tissues in a bin.

Chanting/Shouting/Singing – are to be avoided to help reduce the risk of infection.

Priority will be given on stairwells to people ascending the stairs. To avoid contact, people descending are required to step into a row until the stairwell is clear for them to continue their journey.

what i dont get is why they had to pay tv companies back despite them showing the games when they resumed?

Probably some technicality about agreed dates and times.

UEFA should shoulder some of the blame for insisting pubs should maximise match day income rather than seek more lucrative sponsorship and commercial deals

To tell the truth Boris Id rather have the option of just paying for the games I want to watch, if sky could broadcast every spurs game I'd happily pay a £10 a game.

Totally agree, why can’t they organise a One Club Season Ticket between themselves?

Aye, makes sense i guess. Still surely after paying back the should be free to sell the rights of the games once resumed then? seems like the TV companies got paid back and free games to air :/

I would hope so, if they don't they'll end up messing it up for everybody else.

I'm worried about how all this money lost will affect Chelseas transfer budget?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That's basically £35million lost per club. To Chelsea that doesn't even cover Timoue Bakayoko's fee
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That's the spurs transfer budget foooked.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah, not just this transfer but the next 10 transfers too 😂
