If true this would have massive repercussions throughout society, as for sport, well I think you could rule out tournament football for some time, so all these in media saying how the season should finish are talking through their arses.


Better fucking not be. I'll work from home for 14 days post holiday if I have a job by then..

Yeah it sounds bad, but the point he was making was, given that we eventually get through this mess, the last thing they are going to do is trust people to go to other countries and hope they will not come back infected, hence the quarantine.


No way the skies and borders will be opened up outside of at least 12 weeks after the last country gets the all-clear

Agree, the airlines are more or less shut down, countries in lockdown, but PL, bt sport, Sky et al are going to start football again in May albeit behind closed doors! Are they in the real world?

We all the answer to this. What I dont understand is how the PL and any other goon involved, think that these squads can congregate and move to such an event? Also, City are on record saying no football until everything is safe so that's us effectively out of any such discussions and plans. All the media who are peddling such nonsense are just after the cluck-bait to justify their own existence. It can only be a non-starter

I noticed that jug eared twat lineker has said “only the people that dislike LiVARpool do not want the season to resume” well Gary thank you for those pearls of wisdom. Now a cynical person might say he is dancing to the tune of his paymasters BT sport, but hey this is leftie, neo socialist Lineker we are talking about here, shows one thing, all that liberal leftie stuff was just Virtue Signalling at it’s worst, the mask has slipped Lineker, Just another limousine socialist, money matters more to that twat than life itself.
I hope when all this is eventually sorted, that people remember the one’s that put money before human life.

All the pundits are the same as the football journos all trying to maintain their selves and their income streams. They've all managed to build lucrative careers off the back of football and its paymasters. I doubt that we will see any saying the league should be voided as we have bigger things to concern us right now. I do also hope that people remember this once we come out of this. Bunch of self-serving cnuts
