Now they are talking of making the over 70’s stay at home. How are they going to police that I wonder. Will I get arrested as I sneak out twice a week to play squash?:confused:

Come on Jim politics and Brexit is quite unimportant in the great scheme of things giving what this country is facing as everybody is looking to our current leaders and their experts as none of us are experts apart from being armchair experts and they are millions of them as we all know.

It was your throwaway line about the government being unedifying that I wasn’t that happy with.

It’s new ground for everyone and they are being led by their scientific advisors.

l am not a fan of Boris Johnson and l have stated that quite clearly for years but he is our leader and we must place our trust in him led by his experts to make the right calls.

The Champions League and Europa League could be decided by a mini-tournament are one of the options being discussed by UEFA tomorrow.

Solution just follows Jfman's idea on the previous page. It's basically that or nothing. The domestic leagues are more important than the Euros and the Champions League finishing will allow minimal financial disruption to the clubs involved. After all its just case of club football is more important than internationals.

There's gonna be a real need for a financial package for EFL clubs though. Drop down to league one and below and you're looking at gate losses on match day attendance.

Indeed lower down the football pyramid unless some clubs get financial help they will go to the wall.

Not just lower league, most clubs will not survive long with no income.
