    How do you know it will be going towards their transfer budget?

    As i say in terms of Bradford City we need real honesty about our finances. How we going to pay for testing? Do we want to wait for fans to come back then the season can start? TV season ticket and playing behind closed doors?

    Just come out Rhodes not Ryan and be totally honest because if Rupp is just going to loan us the money then that doesn't sit right with me at all.

    Football clubs have no income coming in from the end of this month. Those thinking about transfer budgets need to seriously think about clubs financial side but the club needs to do the right thing and offer refunds to fans.

    If fans refuse refunds the club needs to come out and say what the money is going to go towards. If it's to Rupp's back pocket I am not interested and I would want my money back.

    If you go to Northamptons website they are offering 3 donation options for those that dont want any money back.

    Maybe City will do something similar?

    Any money will be mopped up well before any income comes in. People who want their money back should contact the club but with the prices we charge it’s a very small amount t anyway

    Interesting developments in Scotland today. The structure of the leagues is to stay the same but Scottish Championship is to start in October. My thoughts are that is is because fans(Not sure how many) will hopefully be allowed back in by then.

    @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler could be inching closer to his November date of restart.

    I'll laugh it was in November though.

    However, no doubt the EFL will have another meeting on when it should start. Least in Scotland they seem to have dates now. Scottish Premier league starts in August with Championship in October. We urgently need a start date or month now.

    We have to play with crowds otherwise there was no point in finishing. Clubs need the income but as you say a start date so staff come off furlough for pre season training.

    Forgot about Furlough. That could be another reason for the October start month as it ends then(fully).

    Struggling with our government at the moment. They safe indoors increases the chances of the virus spreading but I can go to London and spend 5 hours shopping inside Westfield but I can't watch my football club(outdoors) for 90 mins.

    This is the worst government ever. We want to boost the economy but work from home if you can! We want to boost the economy but don't talk face to face in a restaurant sit side by side. Utter rubbish! Letting down the country this government.

    The PL will be talking to the government about getting fans back but its the EFL that needs to drive it and fast because we need a start date ASAP.

    Baldwin now in at the EFL. Big job to do but let’s hope he starts shaking it up a bit
