Ingle challenges the morals of the decision many Premiership clubs have taken to furlough their backstage staff, rather than asking their stars to take a pay cut to weather the storm. This is a decision that has earned the clubs much criticism, with even health minister Matt Hancock stepping in with his opinion.

In his column, Ingle says that football would do well to learn from triathlon and the help and support the PTO are showing their athletes: “Three weeks ago the Professional Triathletes Organisation announced it would increase its annual end-of-year bonus scheme from $2m to $2.5m, and immediately paid it out rather than wait until December.

“Realising that triathletes lower down the food chain would need extra help, it gave the extra $500,000 in bonuses just to men and women ranked between 21 and 100 in the world. The world’s top 10 have also committed to doing online appearances and exhibitions and donating all the revenue to lower-ranked triathletes.”

Ingle also cited Sport England, who last week announced a £192m package to help grassroots sport, “including a £20m emergency fund with grants of between £300 and £10,000 for sports clubs and community organisations, those vital but unappreciated capillaries in our society. That comes down to smart leadership. And it matters more than ever.”

It is priced £49.99 and all profits will go to the NHS Charities Together, which acknowledges and supports NHS staff, volunteers and patients impacted by COVID-19.

In a statement they said: Here at HUUB, we want to do our bit! We are still trading, and it’s not easy, but let us be realistic, there are some out there risking themselves to serve the sick and with no respite coming for quite some time. They are the ones who ‘just get on with it’, and we wanted to do something, not for profit or glory, but just do something! We understand that what is needed are donations… So, we thought about the message that really needs to be cemented – stay in, train sensibly, only do the essential shopping, look after others, and only go out for exercise and essential work.

“It’s not for us; it’s for them. ‘In’ for now, and when this is all over, and you’re ‘out’, it will act as a reminder of sacrifice for all to see.”
