No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all.

This issue is far from over. I am finding it harder and harder to see this division continuing to the end of the season.

I agree. All I can see now that as their is no relegation that all clubs with money problems will play until the cash runs out, or before if they've got sense and then shut shop till next season. Eventually the league will have to end this season null and void. The Board of the NL probably don't want to take blame until its fait accompli, and then say what could we do. Very weak management. |

The NL could sanction a points deduction for next season. |

You’d imagine that Dover, and anyone else that ends up not fulfilling fixtures will end up with points deductions starting from next season, which will probably see the sides currently at the bottom this year (who will avoid relegation) simply being the same next season...delaying the inevitable I guess.
It’s becoming a real mess and I’m not sure anyone team or person/league is to blame. The conference has always been a bit of a basket case and makes some bizarre decisions. I guess, as a football fan, whilst we’ve looked worse than conference and our club has been operating well below conference, we’re not down there. The thought of Day/Fenty being involved in this is terrifying.

I am uncertain of their ability to furlough and then play new players - the intention of furloughing is to keep staff employed when there's no work for them. I can't furlough members of my staff and use someone else to do their work. Surely it can be argued by the HMRC that replacing players who could play is not in the legalities of furloughing...
Could any employment experts/ HMRC representatives care to clarify?

Barrow have done this. And with our ridiculous squad, I'm surprised we haven't. Clubs in the NLS did this too. |
