    playing behind closed doors

    some hi brow medic has said its pointless banning the games as the virus doesnt last long in the open

    so they close the grounds
    and everyone goes to the pub to watch it inside

    i honestly feel its all getting blown out of hand

    those tha have died here had underlying illness


    and more people died in london from knife crime this week end than two weeks of the virus
    i dont see them putting curfews out to stiop peole meeting up for knife fights

    and why stock up on bog rolls for gods sake

    still lets hope life goes on

    imagine liverpool winningtthe league and no one able to watch the match im the ground

    I heard Colin Murray saying they'd waited so long to win it he wouldn't care...but I suspect that's bravado. It would take the gloss off, that's for sure.

    But, needs must and if it has to happen then it is what it is. I take your points and it's all relative numbers-wise at the moment. Problem is that it's so contagious that sd far as I can tell the worry is that the death toll could be huge purely because SO many people could catch it if stringent mesasures aren't taken.

    Apparently the South Koreans have slowed its progress right down by putting in place the sort of restrictions that we're still currently talking about.

    Boris Johnson is a lying, cheating feckless bastard and I wouldn't trust a single thing that comes out of his mouth so when he says we don't need to do stuff yet, then my guess is the time to act is now.

    Wouldn’t make a great deal of difference to our home games as the atmosphere is crap

    It's all to stop people talking about other stuff as usual
    The crisis in China
    *****s in house of commons
    Prince Andrew
    Brexit etc

    Coronavirus showing the fans how to boycott games. If games still get shown live on tv
    knowing Ashley he will cover all the seats with Shìte Direct advertising.

    That would be his ploy mate every seat would have a visible SHYTE DIRECT sticker on it

    Well Denmark are even more feckless than Boris so far (although I'm sure that will change in time)

    Denmark cases .... 674. deaths 0. cases per head of population 116.4

    UK cases ........... 590. deaths 10. cases per head of population 8.7
