...what is the point in having two board representatives for @SkyBetLeagueOne one from @burtonalbionfc and one from @ftfc when they are not representing our club?

You see I don’t have the info that backs up @capboy70’s comment that we will have to repay @SkyFootball if we don’t see out the season.
And not for a single moment do I believe Sky would do this.

...a £5m overdraft for my core business to get through #COVIDー19 period. This is not supported by the government, it’s supported by our stable balance sheet. We don’t intend to lose any staff, preferring to work through it.

...touch football clubs lower down the pyramid with the longest bargepole you’ve ever seen, if I want to borrow for a football club I have to say so!
So... as I said, it isn’t safe to assume the support needed for @ASFCofficial is available as it was in the good old days...
