Burnley (h) postponed

[worsleyweb]

If Mendy is now in isolation then the rest of the squad and staff should be , looks like the Premier league will be suspended the competition until further notice with tomorrows emergency meeting , the "stakeholders" will have to bite the bullet and put peoples health before their wallets.

If it is not peaking for 10 to 14 weeks then let’s assume people will be getting sick for that long then football simply can’t carry on? No one will
Be able to field a team?

Seems like we should call the season done.
I don't really agree - and I'm entitled to my opinion.
Covid-19 is out there, baring everyone locking themselves away for weeks on end it'll still be out there.

Wow you should be a politician.
Yes it will be still out there but will be a thousand times worse.if the neccesary steps arent taken.

It's a virus - it won't magically disappear.
An alternative theory would be to allow this to run it's course allowing the human race to build up a resistance to a new virus

 

[worsleyweb]

Is now a good time to predict a team!?

No exactly - which shows what a farce this is.

Pep is NOT giving a press conference

Announced right after the FA said they would be cancelled AFTER tomorrow
You fucking tell 'em pep

 

[Pam]

Arteta has tested positive now.

Give your head a wobble.

Taking precautions and keeping the expansion within the capabilities of our medical services until a vaccine is available in 12 to 18 months time will, hopefully, limit the deaths to 500,000 or less.

Letting it run it's course will kill millions - is that your advice?

Game off, season over, now let's get on with what's really important in life, staying safe, healthy and continuing to look after each other during this really challenging and difficult next 6-12+ months.

 

[york away to this!]

Says a bloke happy in the thought that he doesn't have a mother or doesn't have a mother he loves.

And who doesn't give a f*£k about your mother!

I don't old chap. My mother died of pneumonia a week after we won the FA Cup against stoke. Clearly I didn't give a fuck as I went to the game...

Well if you've suffered such a sad loss, (and I honestly grieve for you in that circumstance), why do you have so cavalier an attitude towards the safety of all the old and vulnerable folk out there?
Can you not empathise with all those with respiratory illnesses who are currently living terrified lives because they know that this virus will likely kill them if idiots spread it about?

Oh, and in response to your calling me a 'dick' . . '****'

 

[Vic]

I'm pencilling in tomorrow's game for the same weekend next year. Saves all the Liverpool howls if we just suspend this season for 12 months.....

If by the autumn things are looking up, we could find a new sponsor for a special interim competition. The Abu Dhabi Stuff You Cup.

Agree mate.
Fk all this each man for himself.
Never leave a man behind is a better saying..

 

[mdj0520]

Call the season. Desperate for this to be called off. Wife determined to go and I'm not looking forward to being the bad guy arguing against going to to watch a football match.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Having slept on it I'm not going if the game is on. If I was single I'd go as the chances are we're all going to get it at sometime anyway but, my wife has a shit immune system (a cold takes her a month to clear) due to having had a Stem Cell transplant three years ago and I'm not prepared to potentially risk exposure myself & bring it home to her.

If/when we get it we get it but I'm not being a catalyst.

 

[Wafty Cranker]

I know I’m getting ahead of myself here, but if the game is on and we go a few goals up, can we sing to the away fans, to the tune of you should have gone Chistmas shopping

“You should have stayed in isolation”

 

[Big gay Al]

Its simples the Premier league having meeting today....in my opinion it'll be cancelled...so we can look forward to the shopping with the Mrs or fixing the shed.

 

[bluemc1]

So we’re being told all Arsenal and Madrid players will self isolate, we could be in same boat now with Mendy, Chelsea also

how can the team even train for 2 weeks and be ready to play once the isolation is over


Stop fuckin about and call it all off

 

[west didsblue]

I’m full of a cold but would normally go to the match anyway. Currently in two minds as I’d hate to get Covid-19 on top of this fucking cold. Anyone else not going because of coronavirus?

I’d be going if I lived alone but Mrs has very bad asthma so I’m gonna stay away
