Odd considering there appears to be no evidence quoted so far that COVID cases on the back of elite sports put the NHS under pressure

What would be the point? Unless you’re going to lock players and their immediate families away for a few weeks it’s not going to work.

Footballers are no different to anyone else in that they still need to get food, petrol and have partners who work. An industry-specific lockdown, so long as its employees need to remain living in the real world, is absolute folly.

Either completing the season is viable, or it’s not. Personally I think they’ll plough on with zero consideration for the integrity of the game, but time will tell.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

Would having a month off help us? I presume we wouldn’t be allowed to train so it wouldn’t really help, would it?

Can't see the point of a break. Play on or scrap it completely. Will the situation be any different in 3 or 4 weeks?
