Mole Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Almost speechless at all this, like. It's monumental decision after monumental decision..... nothing ever stops sports. Storms, war, terrorism, tragedies etc. Sports always continue regardless. This must be huge. World war would, that's the point. This is a world wide problem. Thus the need to be proactive.

Thomson Mouse Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 So Liverpool stay holders of the Champions league but denied the premier league? That would be something. Absolutely no way of telling how long this will last. Postponing the Euro's seems extreme but in actuality this could be running well into the start of the summer. In what way is that extreme? It’s common sense Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 can it not be extreme and common sense? it is an extreme move but a sensible one Aye, it seems far away but there needs to be extreme caution. It needs the world taking measures together to help it pass. Unchartered territory really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Premier League and EFL have surely got to be suspended too? If you think PL was already all about money, just wait until it sees every other league suspended and knows it can run unopposed for a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 The UK government is considering banning sporting fixtures amid the coronavirus outbreak - but it will not happen immediately. On Thursday, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said the UK will move to the "delay" phase of its plan to tackle the virus. There have been 596 confirmed cases across the UK. "We are considering banning major public events like sporting fixtures," said Johnson. "The scientific advice is this has little effect on the spread - but it does place a burden on other public services." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_F Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 The chief scientific officer just said in the press conference that mass outdoor crowds will not increase the spread of the virus. Seems bizarre and at odds with what the rest of the world seem to think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Those poor Toon fans if games do get played behind closed sports/postponed, what will they do with their weekends? Maybe the powers that be don’t understand just how awful going to the Metty with the wife is for these people. They’d rather have the virus I’m sure! These are people who actually preferred to give Ashley their money to go to games after all! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
