Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

I really think I'm through with football. The inner peace I feel is a feeling I've not felt for a good few years, I think it goes to show how spuds deep emotionally I was with football.

But I really think this is it, this covid pandemic has shown up the premier league, the FA and sky sports news as soulless, spineless and selfish. I've just turned sky sports news on and it wasn't even the content that would me up but the actual presenters. Apart from our Mike the big blue the other bunch are snotty, stuck up rag/Scouse loving tosspots who make my blood boil.

As well as their constant glee at the negative stories about us their smug twat grins and uncontrolled excitement on show for them two red mardarse clubs makes my blood pressure rise.

I won't miss anything about football on tv, radio or social media.

How can the likes of Richard Scudamore current Chairman of the Premier League, know better than the Doctors and the Scientific experts. In saying that it is safe to play football when they are still unsure as to how long it stays both in the air and on the ground or surfaces. Plus is he just a craven poltroon of a coward, and is just doing what the chairman of the rags and dippers want.

If that is what he is doing just following what they want, then he should do the decent thing and resign straight away. I don't know the new chairman of the Premier League a Mr Hoffman, he says he is a Coventry City fan, but my guess is that he will still jump to the tune of what the dippers and rags want.

You may not like Nicola Sturgeon as a person, but at todays press conference she said that the lockdown measures may have to stay for another fortnight. This is to make sure that the Covid19 virus is under control, and those catching or dying from it is coming down from day to day. We do not want to see it coming back by releasing the lockdown measures to soon.

On todays Sky News they said that the official death rate in China from this Covid19 was around 4,500 now if you believe that you will believe anything. Portugal had the least per capita due to the Government having a lockdown as soon as the first few died of Covid19. So why is our Government trying to kid us that it would be good for the welling being of the nation if football was to be brought back.

The Observer had a poll which had only 20% wanted football to be brought back, how many were surveyed I don't know. So much that the nation wanted football back.

You can't blame Scudamore, he left in 2018. It is the clubs who drive the agenda, and the majority rules.

this is correct,football needs a major reset, it started quiet a while back with stadiums becoming sanitised then the introduction of the corrupt VAR and to this we have today, we have just witnessed one of the most corrupt seasons ever along with corruption in the CL, is it any wonder folk give up,TBH i think if they found a cure for this virus tomorrow gates at football would be over 50% down,,all this might be for the better, one day football could return and gates could be that poor we may be able to pay on the day again and sit with mates

But what happens when you are unable to use deft footwork to bring your seat down? YOU HAVE TO TOUCH THE SEAT!! THAT IS THE POINT you seem unable to grasp. The final sentence was answered at my post #9206. You may wish to reread it to refresh your memory.

I am on the seat next to the aisle so half the row brush against me at least once. Being a gentleman I always lift the seat as l stand but flicking it down can be awkward
 
Man_City_Loyal does that apply to the other Manchester club. The only reason LIvarpool want the women Super League declared null and void, is because they are bottom off that league. They are just a bunch of two faced bastards. They have one rule for the mens team then a totally different set for their womens team.
 
Seen on twitter (I know!) that everyone's favourite paper (rhymes with 'Kayleigh sale') is reporting that the two UEFA club competitions are due to resume on Aug 8th.
 
jimhari that's providing that all the boarders will be open by then. If the boarders remain shut how are UEFA going to by pass that problem.

Whilst he is a dick i was saying the other day that players are used to touching each other,the hugging and hand shaking and all of that is second nature,if they are being told they are ok playing a contact sport then why cant they have all the contact involved in them being together that they usually have,the whole thing around football coming back is one big mixed message
 
Liverpool should just turn up on their own for two games, kick the ball into the net and go home. We will then need to isolate Liverpool for a few months. No point on football without fans.

My own take would be to null and void the season, have no champion on relegation, promote three up from the Championship and start the new season in late July, thus allowing for things to settle down further and a proper pre-season for players.

More fixtures means more TV money. Shut the season down for a month through December - resume mid-Jan after the cold season starts kicking about.

Finish start of April and relegate six clubs - allowing more window for the Euros to start that summer.

Season 21-22 season then factors the moving of the World Cup in Qatar.

I agree with all of this other than the point of premoting 3 clubs, I think it should be the 2 clubs in the automatic positions. With the play off system there is no guarantee for anyone in 3rd to 6th so they have no argument, if you premote 3rd then the other 3 have an argument.

It will also factor in the spare team every week not playing a game.

Again really silly response, the players are going to be getting tested multiple times a week - it's completely different to the public suddenly saying 'fuck it' and walking out en masse.
