Scunthorpe chairman Peter Swann has called for a cut or deferral in player wages of at least 50 per cent to cover the losses caused by the suspension of professional football in England.
In a 730-word statement on the club's website, Swann took aim at governing bodies, writing: 'It's embarrassing regarding the silence of the PFA in all of this.''
Clubs in the Premier League and the English Football League have placed non-playing staff on furlough, as they look to take advantage of the Government's job retention scheme set up to protect jobs affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
