"The players' Union advises players not to cut salaries, in order that national insurance is paid to support NHS. What garbage.
(σ.σ.: Ο Σύνδεσμος των ποδοσφαιριστών τους συμβουλεύει να μην "κουρέψουν" τις αποδοχές τους, έτσι ώστε να ενισχύεται το Εθνικό Σύστημα Υγείας με τις ασφαλιστικές τους εισφορές. Τι … σκουπίδι!)
National insurance is a tiny fraction of a player's wages... Which amounts to 200m over 13 months for all players. Except lockdown is 3 months. 5p m then. What is stopping each player donating 30% of net wages directly to NHS causes? 50m is a tiny amount in that respect".
