Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

[BobbyBoy]

As a mod I get to see the posts that you had that weren’t approved Bobby.

imho I don’t believe you are a Spurs fan.
I could be completely wrong, but I don’t believe I am. Your incessant defending of the loveable scousers and your daily pleas to award them a trophy they haven’t earned doesn’t go unnoticed, neither has your lack of similar concern for your ‘own’ club. Even though you may have difficulty from afar.

Other than that I don’t wish to waste any more of my own time on you or your game.

No problem, I'll refer to them as dippers in every post from now on to curry favour with the masses. And feel free to post any posts that weren't approved, I'm not aware of a single one. If are there any post them and I'll happy leave your forum.

End the season now give the Bus Wrecking Twats the trophy (hollow win) and no points record for them.

Yep I’d take that. They won’t beat our records and they won’t have actually won it so it means nothing anyway

I game left then playoffs. I’m not sure awarding teams on things they *might* do is a good idea but at least they’ve made a decision and can now concentrate on the nitty gritty I.e paying staff, ensuring clubs survive etc

Think they were 15 points clear so uncatchable. Shame Liverpool can still be caught though

The only serious moral question I have for myself right now is if the boot was on the other foot, and I was a Liverpool fan, would I be wanting the league to be called off as much as I do as a city fan. I can't answer that, but I truly hope I would.

Some people feel we were in with the best shout ever to win the CL.
Personally I still believe we would have been done out of it one way or another, but I see the point.
Thing is I couldn't care less. Football is over. If it goes ahead despite all that's going on, as others have said, I'm done with it.

Out of order mate it’s just your belief.

I think I made that clear with imho?

Or maybe you didn’t understand what ‘I believe’ means?

Football will not be allowed to continue unless the government gives the all clear. I for one cannot see that happening before the end of May at the earliest. Death rates and those falling ill with this virus are continuing to rise every day. So where the bosses of all the football organisations can think about starting early May is beyond me. Do these bosses known something that we all do not known.

While I find the idea of paying the players full salary and furloughing non-playing staff unpalatable, I wonder if this is actually better for HMRC in tax revenue than the alternative of clubs paying non playing staff and the players taking a corresponding pay cut?

That said, at least at PL level the clubs should be able to cover all the wages themselves!!!

I have just found out that Eddie Large has died of the virus. R.I.P. EDDIE LARGE ONCE A BLUE ALWAYS A BLUE.

This still rumbles on. Ridiculous.

The country will not be in a position to hold such events like premier league football any time soon. At the absolute best I would say August and that is pushing it.

Even when this finally dies down I would have thought that most sane people wont have an interest in the game for a few weeks at least. From a fans point of view other than the obvious fans will not have much interest in completing this season, loads playing for nothing. Scrap the fucking thing and have done with it. Let the silly ****s from Liverpool "look after" the trophy for a year.

The top few in Belgium all go into a playoff so it doesn’t really matter how many points clear they were. That’s how I understand it
