Yes 20 years now. Next to nothing here but curfew and lockdowns etc as you would expect. No bars or restaurants open at mo but supermarkets are fine with no issues with hoarding.
Agree Liverpool was fucked and then hey presto, their tier drops like a pair of lead knickers and becomes the only place you can watch football in the crowd. It's a shit-hole but for whatever reason, Manchester is getting hammered worse.

We went to Alykanas last time although we would normally go to Paxos but the Ionian is great generally. Loved getting up into the hills and mountain villages. Snowing here last night, melting slowly.
The cameras at Anfield were mainly in the stand where the fans were so only behind the right hand goal with the odd glimpse of the main stand but plenty who were visible were taking no notice of social distancing rules. Nothing new I am afraid.

An entire page today in the daily fail was devoted to families from all over the world wearing pyjamas. A couple of mini fotos of a Canadian singer & the Messis but the 3 main larger ones were - bearing in mind we had the whole world to go at - beckhams, rooneys & ferdinand.

PATHETIC

Come on, be fair. St Marcus of Northern Moor has been far too busy saving the nation's children as the 'internationally renowned social justice campaigner' (as described on BBC 24 hour news) to have a family of his own, let alone pose in red jim jams.
 
The worry now is they make us play Chelsea etc and we could have another 4/5 players out on top of Walker and Jesus.

I’m guessing it isn’t just one extra player for them to postpone the game.

They can't if we have multiple players isolating, if they did then they risk Chelsea players and staff being exposed. They'll have to extend the league for us. It'll be good to have a fully fit squad when we end up playing the Stretford tourist attraction as well.

I live about half a kilometre from Alykanas (going away from Alykes) , can't whack it.
Agreed with the social distancing thing. You can't go into ANY shop here if you're not wearing a mask properly. Even then, the likes of Lidl have you outside with 2 metre distance with 1 in 1 out if they are busy. Anyone doesn't like it.... tough titty.

COVID-19: Premier League game between Everton and Manchester City postponed

The match had been due to kick-off at Goodison Park on Monday evening, but is now set to be played at a later date.
news.sky.com news.sky.com

"Based on strong medical advice the Premier League, in consultation with both clubs, have decided to postpone the fixture." (City's statement)

"Everton - who are currently joint second alongside Leicester in the league, but could have gone level on points with Liverpool at the top of the table with a victory - had no say in the decision to call off the match." (Sky's made up story)

So, who's telling little fibs?



(My money is on Sky)
 
It will be interesting to see how the media report this outbreak of Covid. If it was at any other club, 2 spring to mind, the coverage would be rightly sympathetic. Wonder if we get similar coverage we got to the possible Euro ban! ie Mostly snide.

Sky has been pushing the ‘Everton could go top’ line all day. That was their narrative
