Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

[give it to gordon]

they're saying an infected player will be treated like any other injury hahah taking the absolute piss!

Do you think the papers are having a competition between themselves to see who can come up with the most silliest idea ?

How can an highly infectious virus be treated the same as a pulled hamstring ?

I'm trying to think of a normal injury that has the potential to kill a team mate

Unnamed #PL club owner: "There is a great will to play. We simply can't afford to not play. If we wait for a vaccine or herd immunity it could be 18 months without football and 90% of clubs would go bust. Even if we sacked 95% of employees, we'd still go bust." [via

No one will be forced to play. It will ultimately be the player's decision. If a player doesn't want to play it will be their call."



Sergio Aguero: “The majority of players are scared [to return] - they have family, children, babies. When we go back, I imagine that we will be very tense. We will be very careful and the moment someone feels ill, you will think: ‘what’s gone on there’..."

Premier League clubs are opposed to playing at neutral venues to get the season finished, as the loss of home advantage would ruin the integrity of the league. St George’s Park and Wembley are now off the table as potential venues. [

Where did you get this information ?
The pm hinted something different in his update.

Not how I interpreted it, he said they'll have a "plan" next week, which coincides with the next review, my guess is the numbers still won't be anywhere near lifting it then, so it'll be extended in accordance with the "plan".

The more you read and the more ideas they come up with to try and satisfy the cash cow the more ridiculous you realise the whole concept is. Just give it up. Its finished.

I cant even see how we start next season. Come winter and this things back in force what happens then?
