Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Will someone from the bosses of the premier league explain how they are going to stop fans from turning up outside of the grounds being used. There is no way that you will be able to keep it quite as to were and when the games are being played. This just smells of we are losing money by not playing and we need to get this finished asap. Afterall we cannot have Liverpool going another season without winning the premier league can we.

All you need is one player or one of the backroom staff to still be infectious, and this all comes crashing down. Also how is this social distancing going to work, when the players have to stay 2mts apart. So it will be laughable if they think they can start before the middle of June at the earliest. Football will need 3 weeks of no one falling in to this virus to start playing again.

Apparently you just need to put the army on the streets and shoot anyone that leaves their house, so nobody will be turning up outside football grounds..

For the love of city of course. I fell out of love with football ages ago, the press and the media, the FA, the premier league and VAR put my fires out a long time ago, it really is us against the world mate.

Blatant to see pal yet the sheep still follow

Do any of you know what other fans are saying about this on their fans forum ?

Is it just here that are against this ?

I would imagine that RAWK is saying the opposite to us !

Was wondering the same

Had a look on redcafe & they pretty much take the same view as we do,they have dipper posters who(surprise surprised)don't see it like that & generally get ripped a new one...

Football was not meant to be played behind closed doors. This was meant for the spectator, so that the can cheer on their local side. This is just laughable idea that has come from the bosses of the Premier League. They will do anything to help Livarpool to get their 1st Premier League trophy. They have said that they will look at it again at the end of April. Not a chance it will probably be peaking just about then.

So just when do they propose to start this July, that is just stupid. We all know that the new season starts again August. No let's call this season 2019/20 all null and void. This way clubs can start to plan properly for the season 2020/21. All players contracts are extend by 1yr, any player that would be free agent will lose that right and will still be bound to their clubs for the season 2020/21.

They will award it if they possibly can,who chose the new prem chief after all...

Couldn't give a rats arse if they do.
Let them. Give it to Liverpool and null and void everything else, for all I care.
That'll show everyone how ridiculous it all is.
That's how ridiculous the PL attitude is. That's how ridiculous the Scouse attitude is.

Agree with most , not sure how you can just extend players contract, our very own magician might not want to do another season after setting his and his families future else where. Some managers might be thinking thank goodness so and so is leaving oh wait we have to keep him another season !!

Give them the 'null and void' trophy and be done with it!

A Liverpool fan on twitter has suggested putting the army on the streets on game days. Still trying to figure out if it’s a serious suggestion.
