It's a unique business, but it is a business.

It does employ large swathes of people, perhaps not the people it employs, but what it offers in terms of belonging to the community.

So this actually hints at, and particularly with the thought, either recognised supporters clubs or local authorities acquiring that stake back.

So the government funds would be refunded at the end of it.

That actually leans towards the social approach you talk about,

Jamie, though, given that Gary just said about football should be able to sort itself out, let me just read you from the mail this morning, Matt Hughes's piece.

where he says the row over how to finish Leagues 1 and 2 could lead to a breakaway championship.

15 clubs last season signed a letter to the EFL threatening to go their own way after a disagreement over TV rights and form a Premier League 2.

Leagues 1 and 2 have their own problems as well.

As you know, Tranmere on your doorstep and Stevenage potentially to be relegated

without kicking a ball as well.

So how much faith would you have with that type of room music that football can sort itself out?

Well, to be honest, Jeff, I mean, I hear what Gary's saying and I agree when he's talking about, you know, teams helping each other.

But I don't think this is a time for leagues leaving one another and splitting up.

This is a time to try and

if possible, and come together.

We've said for so long on this show, when deciding to talk about the Premier League, more often than not, we've talked about self-interest.

And of course, the self-interest in every league up and down this country in terms of what leagues should do, whether leagues should stop now, points per games, whether they should carry on.

Everyone's got their own self-interest there.

But in terms of actually football clubs and financially and keeping clubs going, I think that's when everyone should be looking to come together and help each other.
