On top of that, JN apparently allows the spfl to make important decisions for him,despite his own opinion
So what about players on loan, surely their parent clubs would still be paying their wagesQuote:

Dunfermline have released 17 players, if it is just to furlough players to get them a wage, why have they not done the same, I’m thinking if league reconstruction goes through, there might just be a chance of a play off
