A very valid point army88. For me football without fans is not worth a sh-it. A more pertinent question s why workers like your son are deemed expendable?

Those who are lucky enough to be able to work from home are more likely to be better paid, and they can protect themselves. Construction and manufacturing workers like your lad, must now put their lives on the line so that their wealthy “superiors” can protect their profits.

Keir Starmer’s Labour Party must now pressurise our government to ensure that workers are protected and prioritised, and that the Tories cannot put private wealth ahead of public health whilst bringing the UK out of lockdown.

Calling those workers furloughed through no fault of their own “workshy” is plainly ridiculous, inflammatory and serves us a timely reminder just what a nasty party the Conservative and Unionist Party really is. Is football really this important?

If a professional footballer thinks he is in danger of contacting the virus by being holed up in a hotel and not social distancing (how do you social distance on a football field?) then how can the show go on and should it? What happens if our number one sh-ithouse gobs at the City goalie? It all seems rather futile to me.
