It will be interesting to see how much this raises.
In principal, a good idea, but needs to be followed up with significant contributions.
Would also be good to see some mention of / support towards the club's support staff.
A 30% wage cut would have raised c.£75m each month.
Will be interesting to see if the fund reaches those levels. [Post edited 10 Apr 2020 10:22]

The question is is it still cheaper for the NHS to put these services out to tender rather than finance them in full itself? |
I'd say that very roughly each contract administrator/procurement professional costs two nurses. Contracts the size and complexity of those let by the NHS require monitoring teams, not individuals. |  |

Tax contributions aren't 'private patronage'. |
Though they are often treated as such by those with sufficient means to avoid them |  | | |

In the very short term, yes. In reality, no. Case in point: Serco and community services. Om paper, they 'saved' the CCGs 10 million quid. In reality, the patients that they were unable to adequately look after because their first action was to cut 10% of an already-stretched workforce, ended up getting admitted to hospital at far greater cost than the 'saving'. |  |
