 Welcome to Toffy TV, this is the Everton News Daily. This video was brought to you in association with The Athletic. The Athletic have an offer at the moment. Seven day trial followed by 50% off your yearly subscription. So if you're bored, you're looking for things to read, you might as well take out the seven day free trial and see how you feel. They've got great writers from all over the Premier League. Everton have got Greg O'Keefe, Paddy Boyland, they've also got their own podcast as well. I'll keep you up to date with everything that's going on at Everton and the rest of the football world and the rest of the sports world as well. No clickbait stories, no pop-ups, none of that, just proper, proper journalism. So if you want to check that out, the link is in the description. The Premier League today have suspended football indefinitely. So have the football league till they say football will certainly the world is safe to come back to for everybody. It had been obviously delayed till I think next weekend or this weekend coming up. Then it was put back to the end of April, early May. Now it's just been suspended indefinitely. Obviously we're coming into the final week next week of the three weeks lockdown. It'll be reviewed after that, but it doesn't look like much you'll change with. The peak set to hit the UK in the next two to three weeks. Death rates are going up daily and obviously it just seems to be getting worse at the moment. So football is probably just trying to get its head down and get out the way and not being at the complication. There has been talking the last few days, saying in the last 24 hours about players and their wages. Unfortunately the government getting involved, some MPs getting involved saying footballers should contribute and give wages over to NHS, which is just farcical because it should be the government who pay through our taxes for the NHS. The Premier League now talking to Premier League players about possibly bringing their wages down by 30%, which could help those individual clubs and I think that's the way it should be looked at. The owners, the CEOs and the players should be looking at how they can help people who work for that club. So that burden doesn't get passed on again to the tax owner like Spears and Newcastle have tried to do so far. That could come from within the club and if the players can help and play their part, why not? They're not playing at the moment so this would hurt people a lot more if they haven't got jobs than the players by losing 20-30% of their wages, especially when they're doing nothing and they can't do anything. So that's something the Premier League are looking at as well. So at the moment there's been lots of mad speculation in the last few days as well, seeing the last 24 hours about what could happen. There was even a story going round that one team wanted it to be completed in China, which is just absolutely nuts when you think about it. Apparently there's a proposal in place or certainly for the 3 o'clock blackout TV to be removed, but that really won't matter. Even playing behind closed doors I think is not in consideration at the moment just because of the amount of people. That would have to be part of that and the fact that there would have to be ambulances and stuff. You know, we've gone through this before but today there's certainly Premier League have just locked it down. So we're going to have to wait and see. This is obviously the day after Belgium said they are completely finishing their league. They are under pressure from UEFA to complete it, but they've said they don't care and I can imagine other leagues will follow suit. If all leagues follow suit and say they don't want to complete their seasons, UEFA won't have a leg to stand on one way or another. So we'll have to wait and see how this all plays out, but at the moment the Premier League is suspended indefinitely, which is what we all expected and it's better that it's out there now and we all know. And we can all put our feet up and just sit down ours and wait for this to all go away. We'll have to just wait and see when that is. Carlo Ancelotti has been speaking to Laquip about the situation and about what his daily routine is. He says he's allowed about once a day, but he doesn't really do that. He tries to stay away from that and he does go out when he needs to, but he's just trying to stay at home. And I can imagine for someone like Carlo Ancelotti, you know, he looks at us, looks at Italy and see how bad that is and just thinks, I do not want to contribute into that. Obviously you've got a fact in his age as well. He is 60 as well and probably be thinking best all round if I just stay in the house and don't go out. Which must be hard for someone who's been in football for all the years and for being worked all round the world. And we've seen already pictures of him going out, walking around Liverpool, going to places like Biltlastand. He says he likes walking on the beach and things like that. That must be hard, but he must look at his homeland and think, I don't want that to come here. So he's been talking about that with Laquip. So I think that's the message for everyone, isn't it? Just stay indoors. Don't go out if you can and don't be part of the problem, be part of the solution. Stay at home and watch toffy TV videos and old evident matches. That's all I can suggest. In other news today, there was a report this morning saying that Bernard had been offered to Roma. Carl-Antonati apparently likes the player, but if money is needed he would be willing to sacrifice Bernard. I'm not sure how much truth is in that, but that's come from Italian press. I was told Bernard had been on Instagram to deny it. I can't quite find that myself. But Bernard always seems very happy at everything. He's not someone who's billions every game, but he can be one of those players who can change a game. I don't think we've quite seen the best of him yet, but we'll have to wait and see whether there's any truth in that story going forward. He's not someone I'd like to see leave Evan, but at the moment finances are up in the air. If the season was to finish now and FFP is still in place, Evan would struggle massively to buy anyone this summer. Hopefully FFP will be relaxed no matter what happens because it would be... I think between FFP and UEFA putting pressure on countries to finish their seasons. I think this could be the end of UEFA because clubs were just taking upon themselves to do what they wanted. UEFA are in a position now where they should just really back off. Anyway, we'll wait and see what happens. Obviously that doesn't really matter for the time being. There's no chance for a win though. There's no prospect of anything happening. Football clubs like the rest of us are simply in hibernation and can't do anything. From that announcement today from the Premier League, that basically confirms it. The Premier League also said they will provide funds for the Football League as well and down the football pyramid, which is good as well. There you go. This has been the Evan News Daily.
