Burnley will run out of money by August if Premier League uncertainty continues, concedes club chairman

Burnley chairman Mike Garlick has admitted the club will "run out of money by August" if uncertainty surrounding the current Premier League continues.

UEFA have stressed that domestic campaigns shouldn't be scrapped just yet, with serious repercussions looming for the likes of Burnley should the season not be completed.
