Glenn Murray is 100% spot on here, The players feel forced and it isn't right. I'm sure the majority of players are the sameway. NHS are priority as he says and you can hear it in his voice there is no chance they can restart..

They're going to (be forced to) leave their families for several weeks to play a number of games of football, what's the issue there ?

Just think some of them may never see their husbands again

Yeah the two teams don’t even need to to show up.

Or they could just arrange for the teams Liverpool have to play to be made up of Long John Silver impersonators? Surely wouldn't be any less of a farce...

That could be very easily monitored by the VAR wallah and his special bit of kit used to increase or decrease distances to get the required decision in offsides

We can laugh, Michael, but what about a penalty to the opposition if they get TOOOOOOOOOOOO near!

I believe Laporte has been critical too.

I don't know if this has been asked before, but what are the HSE (Health and Safety Executive)'s views on the situation?

Yea what happens if say Manchester's City council HSE officer says City cant play due to a pandemic ?

 

[BlueAnorak]

So the idea is to play remaining games ar neutral venues?
WTF that means the completion is totally different than the one that was stopped?
