Without finance some clubs in lower leagues face going out of business by the end of the month. Here's an alternative set of suggestions put together whilst walking the dog this morning, which by all means rip to shreds, from the world's dullest man #ProjectDullard
Short Term: Premier League and/or government gives/grants/loan guarantors £1m to every L2 club and £1.5m to every L1 club. Total cost = £60m. It won't cover all the wages but clubs also have had TV money this season & wages are lower. #ProjectDullard
Short Term: £100m hardship fund made available to Championship clubs from govt. If clubs can afford to sell their stadiums for £10m's and sell players to PL for £10m's & be owned by oligarchs from BVI registered companies not all need external funding, but some do #ProjectDullard
Medium Term:
Independent regulator for football to be appointed and recommendations of Jonathan Taylor QC report on EFL governance to be implemented . Any new owners have to accept 1/3 of board as non-execs appointed by the regulator. #ProjectDullard

To provide longer term funding for lower leagues a 1% levy on gross football bets (estimated yield £140m pa) and a 3% levy on all transfers over £10m (estimated yield £30m pa). #ProjectDullard
The dog now wants me to get back to the important matter of the morning
