Arsenal game 17th June.

[Boris Becker’s Backhand]

think I will bother and care when people have stopped dying and we can go to the games, each to their own, guess it gives something else for the media to go at

How did you maintain an interest in football before covid 19 came along what with all the hundreds and hundreds of deaths every single day from a whole range of illnesses and conditions

Looks like the guess the team compy is sadly back on again.

 

[willipp]

What happens if aguero KDB and Laporte all year positive between now and the game? Will they postpone it?

 

[urban genie]

Really never thought I would say this but I an not paticulary arsed about it being back or watching it if honest

I’ll be watching every city game but I’ll be watching it as I would watch a pre season game. Couldn’t care less what the result is.

City should really be finding a way to let seasoncard holders see the games they were supposed to see. There’s not a chance I’m paying for sky or bt sports and giving those vultures any money.

Do you never watch away games on tv?
Or do you not pay, leave that to mugs like me?

 

[Akpowell]

I don't suppose it really matters what time the kick off is, seeing there won't be any fans there. Just wait until everyone turns up then start the game

 

[chesterbells]

I’ll be watching it.

So guess that means my sky sports subscription will be reinstated even though I have no interest in it

SKY Sports customers who have paused their subscriptions are set to start paying again from next month when live sport returns to TV.

In March, the telecoms giant allowed customers to pause their Sky Sports subscriptions when the coronavirus pandemic meant almost all sport - including Premier League football - was called off. But as lockdown eases and with some sport set to resume Sky is now planning to start charging customers again from June 19.

Customers will only start paying again if live sport has resumed by that date.

The plans have been revealed by Sky staff on its community forum.

The Premier League is currently planning to return next month, with the exact date to be decided this week.

Nick Baker, TV expert for USwitch.com said: “Sky says that customers won’t be charged anything before mid-June, but it’s naturally disappointing that some consumers have had to find out this way.

"Sky Sports won’t be able to offer the depth and breadth of football, golf, cricket, F1 and other sports that fans expect for some time.

“Many customers may feel hard done by if they have to pay full price for a service that isn’t what they signed up for.

"If you are not happy, raise your concerns with Sky in the first instance.”

Sky is expected to automatically reinstate subscriptions and it will inform customers when this will be.
If customers pay for an individual sports pack then they won't be charged if that sport has resumed.

How are PL players going to comply with track and trace procedure, or are they exempt.

To be fair, our defence had issues with "tracking", even in the good old days when you thought Covid was that new band out of Seattle.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

So only City and 3 other teams will have to play twice in the first week.

The agenda has started already!

 

[Segga]

Here’s to another treble you miserable bunch of fuckers!!!

luckily I don't think it was intended directly for you :-)

It’s not directly intended for any of us

 

[King KdB of Belgium]

Let's wait and see when we get nearer the time, if the game won't be put back due to someone from any of the clubs being tested positive for Covid19.

I see yet more players have come down with this virus. Even one player tested negative 4 days before he was tested again and this time tested positive. So he could have infected the whole of his team mates, whom knows.

Now that contact can be made in training, how many more positive tests are we going to see. Every day you here of players being tested for the virus and coming up positive. To me it looks like those leaders of the Premier league are either blind, or stupid. Maybe even both, they are willing to risk footballers lively hood just to get it finished.

What happens if aguero KDB and Laporte all year positive between now and the game? Will they postpone it?

If they get it now then the whole lot go under a 7 day lockdown

So only City and 3 other teams will have to play twice in the first week.

I’ll give you three guesses to work out why. And it’s not an agenda.

 

[The Stockport Iniesta]

Is this at home or a neutral venue? Im guessing at home as the bottom clubs wouldn't have agreed to carry on the season with neutral venue's?

 

[jimharri]

The agenda has started already!

I think he's going to regret that post. But hey, we've all been there. Some of us, fairly regularly!

 

[antspider]

My wife has said I have to pick one subscription from BT ,Sky or Porn Hub What a dilemma!!

 

[Deleted member 77198]

Who’s bothered

I don’t think I’ll be bothering to watch any of it.

just crazy june the 17th ??? how much time have the players had training ? even training together ? or working on plans ?

football teams and players need game time or they will blow up and injury prone ? this is the premier league not the german league slow and a training session in what i have seen of the games played ? the premier league is more than just a walk in the park and we don't want to see a training session with 2 teams just settle for getting the game over without much fuzz
