Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

[Akpowell]

Where the fuck is that twat Gordon taylor while all this is going on, the mans an absolute disgrace he should be out there fighting for the players demanding that the players are not playing any football until this virus has gone and it's 100% safe to play.
He's not been seen since this virus started, has the FA told him to keep his head down and keep his mouth shut

Once the players and managers get a vote then its all over in my opinion.
Pep has just lost his mum to Covid. Can't imagine he will be happy at risking his own, his familys or his players lives.
I can see the entire city squad refusing to play. I wouldn't care if they did either. No matter what the consequences are. Life is more important than football

If Germany aren't on top of it then we must be miles away.

And there you have it. What if a player gets coronavirus during the competition? We saw during our game against Arsenal that a few players merely having met someone with the virus was grounds to cancel the game. If a player gets it, then presumably the entire squad would then be unable to play as well as anyone they played against in the past 2 weeks. It's farcical to even attempt it.

you’d have to write next season off also as the virus isn’t going away and no vaccine in sight.
Many clubs will go to the wall. With no TV money and players on contracts.

Heard from a friend of my lad's with connections to the club that the caterers have been told to prepare for a re-start early June.

And they'd still run out of chips.

Awk no, sure, how's it any different to a groin strain after all.
