Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

Why is our game vs newcastle considered of risk to change to a neutral venue?

Something about potential for displays against the potential new ownership for Newcastle, it's absolute bollocks.

...so another team in the north west doesn't start petitioning Parliament about VICTIMisation.

Using the crowd noise on television for the restarted Rugby League in Australia worked brilliantly. The noise rose and fell in accordance with what was happening on the field and was very realistic. there was a guy in the studio in charge of the noise and he did a great job and made the viewing experience so much better than just a silent stadium. If the PL and FA can do as good a job, it will make a real difference.

That's what worries me bluebreeze, will they do it right. For me it will look just plain stupid, all this crowd cheering singing songs etc.. Why are we playing at all. With the daily death total still in the hundreds and those catching the virus in there thousands each day. We should not be playing at all.

How on earth are the police going to stop the crowds from gathering around grounds like Cold Trafford, Canfield, etc. Most grounds are not entirely fenced of like the Etithad is. At the Etithad it is possible to keep fans away from the ground because it is surrounded by a fence. However it won't stop the fans from gathering in the streets at any unenclosed ground.

How have the police managed to stop crowds from gathering in parks and on beaches up and down the country ?

They haven’t. So why should football fans once again be a soft target for authoritarian policing.

I think Chelsea have proposed it, hasn’t been agreed as far as I know

 

[Sir peace frog]
