Don't forget about the 3 million bonus he received

My 2 questions would be:

Can you furlough contracted players? as opposed to salaried staff.

Will the Board seek a deferment on, or reduction of, the £100k we pay Glyndwr University for the lease of the ground?

Finally, we will have to be quite hard-nosed when it comes to renewing contracts.

PS To help out our club, I will not seek any refund for my ST or extra tickets I had also bought. Not everyone will be able to follow suit, but I would urge those fans who can to put aside their distrust of the Trust, put the club first, and resolve the outstanding issues of accountability in due course.

The whole country is currently in a bad place, as is our club. Let's not make it any worse than need be.

Hadn't even considered the possibility of a refund and won't.
Mind you I can see fans wanting a full ST refund 'cos we haven't seen much football this season.

Bizarrely, mr virtue signaler himself, even complained of 'judgemental pile-ons' over players taking their wages.
His donation is a pr stunt to try to save face, same as the way he tried to defend his own £2m BBC wages, before public opinion forced him to say he would take a pay cut.

Surely none of the Prem or Championship clubs will be furloughing players.Would be a complete piss take if so.

Applied for non playing staff while the players remain on full pay.

My bad, was reported the first offer was a 90% cut which the players rejected.

Harry Maguire leading Man Utd players to cut their wages by 30% with the money being donated to the NHS and Jordan Henderson organising a Premier League NHS coronavirus fund amongst other club captains.

It's a shame they didn't do this sooner and are only seemingly doing so through public pressure and Jordan Henderson contacting club captains. I know some players have been doing a lot of work with charities and donating money.

Henderson deserves much praise for doing what he is, he's known for incredible acts of generosity while not looking to make a fanfare out of everything unlike many players.

This money was due anyway, it's been advanced so I wouldn't get too excited.

Another side to this by the time football can start again most fans will have found other things to do.
