Coronavirus: Football Discussion Thread

There are only two possible outcomes from today’s meeting in my opinion. Either the league is voided or the league is stopped. I cannot see that they can control the knock-on effects of the league being stopped, in particular relegation/promotion so my money is on it being voided completely. Weirdly, that might mean we have to scrub the league cup win from our records.

I can't see how two competitions that ran their full course and had a winner, ie, the charity shield and league cup can be expunged from the records. The non completed competitions yes as they never finished.
 
I have grown up, within the confines of the City of Manchester, and despised everything that ever emanated from The Swamp, but I have to say that over the last couple of seasons my loathing of all things red has migrated thirty odd miles down the East Lancs. Never has a club exuded such self-righteous importance, despite what they have and haven't achieved within that time span, and never has there been a club which felt that whatever they did - smashing coaches, hacking IT systems, furloughing staff - they still sat on a heavenly throne with The Almighty sitting at their right hand with Shanks on the left!

Strange isn't it. We used to think that when united fans talked about them being their biggest rivals and not us they were doing it as a dismissive thing to try to wind us up. And yet now, having gone toe to toe with Liverpool for just a couple of seasons, we can see and empathise what they were referring too!
 
Fuck Liverpool FC and this deserved tag.

Ask yourself would they be all for giving it to us or the Rags?

Not only is the answer no, these ****s are behind every plan to get us banned at any opportunity and they cheated by fucking hacking us.

They can get to fuck as they have won no league title because the points to play for still says they have won no league title.

For fuck sake stop sitting on the fence and tell us what you really think
 
This 23 team premier league thats supposedly an option is a total non starter. Not workable at all.
Totally agree. For a starters, where would they get the money from to pay them for next season, cant see sky or bt stumping extra cash up and cant see the 20 prem clubs taking the hit either.
 
I have just read that G Nev thinks we should take the PL abroad to somewhere there is no Coronavirus. Not sure if he's heard, but this is a GLOBAL pandemic, that means the whole world are affected. I'm not sure places that haven't had it (probably because nobody fucking goes there) or have got rid of it would want people coming in from abroad. Also, what would stop their population ignoring their own social distancing rules and the disease spreading again? It's all such a reach for something that isn't really that fucking important.
He hasn't thought about however many thousands of people need to fly,tested the lot when they got there,all the talk is about the mins on the pitch and not the travel and hotels etc
 
Watched the BBC news earlier. The clip re restarting the season was prime LFC TV. Entire footage was Anfield... the BBC is an absolute Dipperfest right now.

Or brake it in to two mini leagues call is premier 1 premier 2, top 11 of the league this year play each other twice the bottom 9 plus the three promoted teams play each other twice! Top three of premier 1 go in champs league 4th spot europa! Top of premier 2 go in champ leagues 2nd goes into europa league.

There is always something you can change just for one season.

An odd number of teams isn’t workable
