I see its Tory's against Tory's now, Jeremy Hunt unhappy with the government and also Rory ( I am the mayor in waiting with a face like a skull), he's not happy with Boris either.

Already bought my train tickets. Not sure whether to still travel down and have a day out or apply for a refund.

I'm still going to London. Booked a trip up the Shard. Need something to do in the afternoon though. Pub ?

You’ve said that before and you were wrong then and you’re wrong now. Hope all your other predictions are more accurate than this one.

Firm denial, but you've been rumbled.

Awesome view from up there, well worth a visit.

They let Cheltenham go ahead for 4 days on the trot (sport of kings) and now they cancel all football league games. I’m not saying the the football shouldn’t be cancelled, but the Racing has made a complete mockery of the whole situation imho.

“Firm denial, but you've been rumbled” = Paul Weller

For the record I wouldn’t touch either Manchester club with yours! Hope that helps clarify things.

Was planning to get home for the Derby match, train ticket booked, was really looking forward to it. Shit, that's £4.60 wasted!

Where are you ?

Saudi

 

[OOOO3]

Oh cancel. Can you imagine the outrage coming out of Liverpool. Snigger.

and Leeds not making the prem

 

[Regardless]

Bollocks, I'm smashing into FiFA20 all weekend 😉

Just been announced that it's suspended until May

Actually if the Championship is suspended, or the positions has now, declared final

I suspect given the ‘protection level’ given to Premiership Clubs by themselves

We will see only the Clubs currently in the relegation and promotion places the being the ones to suffer or benefit accordingly

So football this season, IF that were the case, I doubt we would see any playoffs

No John, don't be uncle plumb, they're going to see who hasn't had a crack at the prem and promote pne to the prem. Be realistic john

 

[Regardless]

If it's not practical to rearrange fixtures, without massively impacting on next season and player contracts etc, I think it reasonable to declare the current league tables as final... and award championships, promotion and relegation accordingly. As much as I prefer to have play-offs, then if not practical, then promote the team in 6th place. - ok... third place.

Not perfect but better than cancelling the season.... it's not like we're only half way through.

Your right except the playoffs are the playoffs. So the team finishing third shouldn't just be promoted. Teams in playoffs should do bags to see who's promoted

They do call it "the lottery of the play-offs" So....

I have some good news for LIB though

Been talking to Uncle Trevor’s horse this morning

Apparently IF the games are resumed it will be home supporters only

And the KOP will be used for those supporters who want it; apparently (according to the horse) this will enable fans to spread out the required amounts

There you are LIB one of the advantages of the Corona virus

Yeah and we get to break all the other fingers before we do bags. Or we could fight with our chegis... Have you still got that 9000er from primary school or did you sell it on e-bay?
