many lower league and Scottish clubs will end up simply releasing every player out of contract if it looks as if there will be no games until say October. And just keeping the handful of pros already contracted for 2020-21.
Again shows the comparative disadvantage we may be under by having (sensibly and prudently) got most of the squad contracted for next season.
I very much doubt we’ll be the only club with players already contracted for next season...anyway they’re the ones we most want to keep!

I've not read the article, but were't Northampton Council recently declared bankrupt themselves?
No - it was the Northamptonshire county council - they haven’t gone bankrupt thanks to some government allowed asset sales which would not normally be allowed.

The county is running empty and should’ve been closed this year but may well be closed next year

Cobblers hopeful of keeping their loan players for the playoffs according to the Northampton Chronicle.

Bradford released 10 players today https://www.bradfordcityfc.co.uk/news/2020/may/ten-bantams-to-depart/

Shay McCarten is a good player and did really well on loan at Lincoln last season, although I don't think we are in need of this type of player.

To be fair, I’ll take any of them but they’ll all be £££. I imagine players will need to take massive cuts. I’d like either of their released RBs though Riley always seems injured.

An average of just under 11 players per club so far. Interesting that higher and lower placed clubs are releasing more than the middle placed teams.

Would’ve been nice to have been told personally that I’ve been released 😳

You can always ask Matt for a trial. Need decent fullbacks.
