Controlled until they cross the white line then it is a contact sport with lots of shouting and and spitting and grabbling at corners and goal celebration of sorts,absolutely no social distancing...

No longer a problem for me :). I heard someone on tv this morning saying next week I can take my kids into McDonald's, but they cannot go to school. I honestly think the government is winging this and just being reactive to who shouts loudest. No way football should be broken up the way it has been, it is either safe to play or it isn't and with so many leagues not completing, that question for me remains unanswered.

They’ve been reactive from the start, not based on science but public opinion, or the perception of. No leadership, we are now in a position where, literally, people can travel hundreds of miles during a pandemic and have a picnic outside their football ground.

I now wonder who will be to blame. Either way, enjoy yourselves, folks.

It doesn't matter as none of the people on the pitch have the virus. Are people missing this point when comparing to visiting a hairdresser who would have hundreds of untested people in their salon every week? Lower League clubs probably don't have the resources to set up their own testing like the top clubs and who is going to get to watch them? They won't be on TV that's for sure.

Have you learnt nothing,you can test negative in the morning and positive in the evening

Tests for the novel coronavirus can return false negatives if administered too early after infection, even if a person may eventually test positive, a new study suggests.
Researchers found that tests returned false negatives 64 percent of the time if they were given four days after someone first became ill.
However, one in five infected people would still get false-negative results eight days after contracting COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus.

None on the pitch have the virus, is that so, Care to share how you know this?

No shit.
Both categories are low candidates to catch the virus, yet one fails because of the 2m rule, whereabouts shouldn't be an issue.

Why would some leagues decide it is unsafe and not restart

Because in some leagues the financial benefits from restarting are not as great as in others

I'm still at a loss how it is going ahead. Apparently the rags friendly against Stoke got cancelled because one of the Stoke managerial team tested positive. This is going to happen more and more. There is no way the trophy will be taken off them once they win the two games.

It was Stoke manager.
