Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

[SWPISHOME]

UEFA started corona virus simply to stop our planned protest. Fcukin agenda!

53,000 whistles on sale on Ebay now!

UEFA and/or Turkey would also have to consider holding the final in an empty stadium

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Why, if it happens you'll get a refund surely?

I genuinely don't know what Mike Ashley would cite to avoid refunds.

Hope Karen didn’t have one. Wouldn’t want to buy that one!

I believe Turkey is one of those states that claims to be coronavirus free. Feels odd given it has a border with Iran but India has a border with China and seemingly they are doing OK.

 

[Groke]

No doubt if this does happen there will be 200+ UEFA "neutrals" in attendance .

Do you really believe it ?

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Chat now about ending Serie A in Italy.

Makes sense, the country is crippled. Kicking a ball of air is insignificant at the minute.

Travelling supporters from countries with coronavirus might scare them?

Oh yeah... forgot about him

Looks very unlikely. Gutted.

Just bought Arsenal tickets for me & lad, I reckon could well be last chance to see blues this season.

Do you really believe it ?

No. But I do believe that they don't have a major problem like Italy or Iran at the moment.

it would not surprise me at all if local hotpots keepcropping up over the next 2-3 months but I reckon the panic should subside now. it looks like it can be beaten if a society does enough. And each nation that's faced a crisis: china, South Korea and Italy have reacted. All seem to be making headway. I wonder about Iran.

I would not be surprised if Tebas was behind the closed doors for all games in Spain. Then shouts for our game to be the same.

 

[cityontheup]

The games being played behind closed doors this week, will the reverse fixture have to be behind closed doors also to make the whole tie fair?.

High profile game like this won't get cancelled

I agree. I can see that happening. Surely though under the circumstances the first step in the UK would be to ban away fans from entering the country ? In our case therefore any RM fans domiciled here would be OK to go to the game. Travel by people from the more heavily affected countries should be an absolute No-No. Unless it's for repatriation, of course.

 

[Nellies left peg]

Stop the leagues and appoint the finishing places as they stand now. Only fair.

Cups? Does it really matter?

Have you turned full Dipper?

 

[Fordyboy46]

I reckon the Madrid game will be the last with spectators, just my gut feeling.

 

[bluedan]

Will Liverpool get to lift the title in front of their fans? Will they even get to +100 points.

Will be such a shame for them

Cancelled probably not, postponed maybe. The UEFA darlings are a goal behind with Ramos already out. Courtois and Marcelo doubtful, the cynic in me says they'll postpone it until they are full strength?
