DANNY MURPHY: Players won't like it but cuts are for the greater good... we can't let clubs go out of existence

The football family needs to come together now more than ever. We need to find a way to help those teams in the lower leagues that are in danger of going out of existence where gate receipts are imperative to their survival.

The funds at the top of football are able to manage that. In a sport where we are creating so much wealth, clubs should not be going out of existence. We can’t let that happen.

Yes, it is easy for me to say. I am not a Premier League club owner. But, ultimately, we are talking about very wealthy clubs and, if the big boys have to lose some of their Premier League money to keep those clubs alive, then so be it.
