Spot on. This is something Sepalla was correct about in her Sky interview. Wasps are maxed out, despite what they seem to have banked on their league isn't going to suddenly explode to match the Premier League. Remember looking at the viewing figures when Italia was having one of his rants and...

Interesting, wasn't aware of that provision. How do clubs walk away from contracts without breaking article 16, let alone leaving themselves open to legal action from the player in question?

Ask them who they voted for in the last election and see if they were bothered about the NHS then.

They don't have to accept anything. Employment law hasn't gone out the window, it's a change in contact terms they'd have to accept. Players are unlikely to be accepting wage cuts of 75%, at best part of their salary will be deferred. There's also a moral issue, although this is football so...

If you're furloughing most clubs will be receiving an amount well short of the wage bill. Where is the revenue coming from to cover that? What happens in October when furlough ends? Doesn't planning to do nothing until at least October essentially write off next season?

Whats the alternative? Players contracts still need to be honoured so if crowds aren't allowed and playing behind closed doors isn't an option where is the revenue coming from?

No chance of it working like that. At most you'll get 2 or 3 people in the government. Any other blame will be pushed down the chain. Hancock will likely be the first to go, and then Johnson and then the government will make out the rest of them had nothing to do with it.

Depends how bad things get, they might decide to play the long game. Once this is over we'll likely have a huge recession to deal with while trying to sort out Brexit. We've got 4 years until the next election. If they think they can get that all out the way with something like 12 months to...

See the daily briefing is now sponsored by Taylor Wimpey.

We were heading into recession before this, it’s just got here a bit quicker and will be worse.

When they have the ceremony to make her mayor someone should get a big projector and have that beamed onto wherever it is the ceremony takes place.

Its to do with how card payments actually work. When you make the payment although to you it seems instant all that has happened is a payment has been pre-authorised and therefore the bank has removed that amount from your balance. The actual payment to the merchant from the bank is often days...

Don't know enough about Young but you'd think him, Westbrooke and Wakefield would be fairly straightforward negotiations if Robins wants to keep them. No really anyone on that list you'd be devastated to lose.

IMO voiding the season is where the threat of legal action becomes more likely. Not necessarily from the clubs themselves but from everyone else. Everything has being sold based on competitive games as part of league competition. If you void that you open yourself up to the possibility of...

BT Sport showing every game and no Saturday afternoon blackout.

How BBC Parliament, TV's geekiest channel, became a surprise ratings hit

There should be an MPs code of conduct with consequences for the type of outright lie Johnson has told today. He knows far more people will see him declare that than will see the evidence that he is lying.

Just looking to save themselves but its way too obvious. If you're relegated thats it, what method the league below choose to decide who comes up is irrelevant.

There was a few soundbites saying the same and talking about mending the relationship as a path to the club owning stadium back before we returned from Northampton. Only problem was at the same time she was selling the stadium to Wasps.
