Chester has been turned down for a loan as they have sufficient funds to finish the season. So you have to wonder about the clubs that want to furlough their first-team players and save, the cash from a loan, for next season.

Chesterfield announce they've got a loan of just under £1 million to get them through the season

You do have to wonder what this loan business is all about, after all, it is the taxpayers' money that is being doled out. Football clubs at the end of the day are a business like any other including the self-employed.

I find it hard to believe that Chester, who to all accounts, who have looked after themselves doesn't get a loan. You then have Chesterfield who gets £1 million to last them to the end of the season! Kings Lynn has raised cash themselves and Dover has shut up shop till next season because they don't want any debt.

We have various scenarios but the club that has gone gung ho gets a loan. So the lesson for clubs in this league, in the future, is don't be prudent with money.

Chesterfield are about to bank £1 million quid, in theory, to finish the season. They are looking good for the playoffs, but what happens if it all goes belly up and they hit a losing streak. Playoffs not going to happen so they have the remains of the million.

Do they furlough the first team and keep the money for next season or return it? Then you have other teams who have no chance of promotion and no relegation doing the same, furlough as many as you can and save the cash.

It's all a complete and utter mess, and what about Dover. If the NL had a cast-iron case against them the NL would have dealt with them by now. What about the points situation with Dover? The mess continues led by an inept board.

Will be interesting to see what the offence was exactly under the rules that allows them to be fined £40k......would imagine an appeal will be forthcoming.

So that’s a points deduction already for next season, if that also happens to a few other clubs, if town do get relegated then could be top 6 without playing a game.
