Didn’t know that.

So clubs who have a large number of well paid staff, who have now had to stand them down want assistance with paying them?

Yeah $1500 per fortnight like everyone else!!!

So everyone else has to fund this(eventually) until they go back to their well paid job?

I’m all for assisting with people who have fallen on hard times but when the AFL CEO and his mates are taking home 3/4 of a mill still after a pay reduction, it’s a bit rich to ask for assistance.

Maybe all staff should be the same amount during this period?

As a kid I never understood why they called it “fun size”, it was a shit load smaller.
As an adult, these sentiments haven’t shifted.

Tottenham Hotspur have stood down 550 staff.
They only have 11 on the pitch, so that's 50 staff per player wtf?

You are miles off.
They have a squad of 25 for their main team but then they have reserve and academy sides, women’s teams etc.
They have hundreds of players on their books and are a big business hence the amount of staff.
Their “training” base is over 80 acres and has 20 soccer pitches with rehab facilities, gyms, pool, spas and housing for over a hundred players. They would have well over 300 office staff alone and on match day they would employ over 1000 staff for each home game so obviously no games no work.

Yeah yeah I know all that, but ultimately they only have 11 on the pitch.
My point is the gravy train for elite sport is out of control.
Mourinho is on $600k.....a week!

Basically what we're all being requested to do, they're just fining people who aren't, we're not doing that yet.

90 days from today is July 1.
