Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

Imo there is no chance this season will resume. Football will just have to take a reality check and clubs will just have to pay back some of the tv cash. And also offer some kind of credit to season ticket holders. In times of a national crisis exceptions should not be made for football and playing behind closed doors is not football.

Gary Neville was on the football daily this morning and he said how do you expect players to be tested when NHS staff aren't even getting tested.

He said he doesn't know where these stories come from and places like sky sports and the media haven't got a clue when football will start again.

As a side note he said he doesn't think we'll see anything this year.

Read it and weep you Scouse ****s.

It seems likely to me at this point they will finish this season off at some point that's basically 2 months of matches behind closed doors have a break of a couple of months and then look at it again that "buys" the league until October-November time before they have to look at any kind of return to "normal" although I'm guessing the start of next season will be behind closed doors with both cup competitions suspended for the year and no winter break!

Shows the standard or click bait of the media when it takes chuckle to say what we've been saying for months.

Richard Keys named the team that is losing 9m a week it’s the scousers.

Scousers caught between their own self-righteousness and the Coutinho money finally running out, eh?

It is incredible that the more the government talk about long term restrictions, the more UEFA and the FA talk about bringing back the beautiful game as soon as possible.

Australia closed its border on March 29th to all non citizens.
At the time the The PM said it would stay closed for as long as necessary, likely to be at least 6 months.

Spain are considering closing the border until Dec 31st, or when lifting it earlier banning all UK citizens from the Canary Islands.

Italy are considering closing the border until March 31 2021.

Yes but that doesn't mean we cant finish the league does it.

Been watching most of the season, NWCL level at best. Skyplayer has all the games live on Skybet, think you'd need an account & possibly a £1 a game bet tho.
