Of course it is about the money, for one thing, the industry needs to earn the money to pay these players high wages.
Did the players help in consultation and agree to take lower salaries? Nope.
The whole of football is about money, for the owners, CEO's/Directors, the broadcasters and press AND the footballers.
No point them trying to come over as the victims here, they are the biggest expense.
Been amazed how many players, judging by the fact I am sure (sic) they have all been following the guidelines like everyone else, how many have tested positive for COVID (only going on the links sirdennis and others have put in here). How on earth did they manage to catch this whilst staying home, protecting the NHS and saving lives?
The simple fact is, if these players don't want to be in a money driven industry, they can leave it, and go and do some altruistic work elsewhere.
