Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

I find it incredible that the head of the pfa is unaware of the laws of the game. Suggested some games could be 30 minutes each way. The law states that a game must have 2 equal halves and for a male senior match must be a minimum of 35 minutes each way. Also, both sides need to agree to this prior to kick off.
Also have come across Kitson a few times in the past and cannot believe he is the alternative to Taylor. He is a nice guy but not the sharpest tool in the box.
 
The 'it will lift the mood' stuff is also just a load of absolute shit.

What moods are going to be lifted when a hybrid, dead rubber group of games - in empty stadiums are played? If anything, it just reinforces the current situation further.
As you say, a dead rubber played in a morgue environment under different rules all with the inherent risk of catching and spreading the virus. Totally absurd thinking by the governing bodies. Raise the spirits of Jo Blogs, so far from realitu
 
Quite sure the Premeir league can do a deal with Sky etc., to repay monies owed over the next couple of seasons , but they won't becasue its all about their greed.
The PFA wont do a thing because they are kept afloat buy television rights money
Players agents will do nothing because they want the 10% of players end of season bonus's
UEFA like the Premeir league will always put their "product" and profits before any other considerations

The common denominator as we know is money , the only way football will be closed down for a few months is if the relative governments like Holland, Belgium , France refuse to allow sport to re-start , if Merkel & Boris agree to a July / August return for football then money has simply won over the health of their people, which is pretty disgusting
Merkel's statement on Wednesday is paramount and i believe whatever the German's decide others will follow suit.
Nobody has looked at the state of football should Sky demand repayment. A full cashback payment would make the product less attractive whenever next season is which in turn would hit Sky in the pocket.

Just null & void with the 25% or so of overpaid monies as you say 'paid back' or slightly reduced payments to clubs over the next 3/4 years.

I'm loving the 30 min each way idea what are they shooting at after 60 mins across the pitch?
Maybe 4 goals is the way forward :+)
 
If the scousers are losing then the full 45 minutes each half will be played, if they are in front the match can be called off at any time.
