As you said earlier, we are an island, and in a better position to be in control of our borders. Boris doesn't appear to have an inkling as to what is going on, one day he's saying "Shake hands with everyone" the very next day he's advising everyone not to shake hands with anyone.
I didn't think of that, you would think the FA would step up to help but in the cases of Bury and Bolton likely not. Also the grounds and stadium workers and pub owners are going to take a loss. I hope it goes over fast.
As you say yankee "Where are the owners now" This will come as devastating news to them, financialy of course. a long period could make the club worthless. They obviously have legal financial commitments to the club and now possibly rue the day they met Jenkins, who has emerged as the outright winner.
Pretty sure I read somewhere some insurance companies are attempting to introduce the 'act of god' clause on certain parts of policies.
Medical experts? There are a lot of fools among them. On February 27 when it was clear that the epidemic was spreading in the north of Italy, well-known and higly-estimated Danish virologists (professor doctors) advised worried people on Danish TV (equivalent to BBC) to go on ski holidays to North Italy. "Don't worry." - they said. These people have been advising the Danish government. And what happened? Last weekend, thousands and thousands infected Danes returned home spreading the disease in metro, busses, trains, supermarkets...This week the number of cases exploded in Denmark. Denmark is now no. six in the world for cironavirus infections per capita.
Can't see putting in the hands of the military would do any good, a case of shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted, agreed they can close borders, but the Geni is already out of the bottle in these countries.They also would have to turn to these 'fools' for advise.
Military knows how to fight against biological weapon . Military has the much-needed know-how. Military is used to take quick decisions in crisis. Military is trained to respond quickly. Military has plans and resources. Military has mobile hospitals that can be used at airports and harbours to quickly establish qarantine for those who are entering the country. And people don't mess with military.
Kick the crap out of the people in Charlton and Leyton
I think they can call a wrap on this season. I don't see it being resumed. The crest of the wave has not been reached yet and the tail will roll through the summer .... the wretched under funding of the NHS over the last 10+ years shall be laid bare/
The fact they are moving Euros to 2021 gives me some hope that the rest of the games will be played in July/August. The new season start probably postponed to late September. The late season start requires cancellation of all international games in 2020.
