    all french leagues cancelled

    Couple of important points. This isn't down to the football authorities, its down to the French government prohibiting all sport until September at the earliest. Our leagues seem to have been left to decide for themselves with some media outlets reporting the government is keen for sport to...

    What's everyone watching while on 'lockdown'?

    There's an American version which is, shall we say different. Worth a watch (its only 17 episodes) if only for the ending.

    What's everyone watching while on 'lockdown'?

    This came from Matthew Graham's (co-creator and writer) tweets during a recent watch along. Was actually on April 1st so a lot of people assumed it was a joke but he's confirmed it wasn't. Said it would be set in Manchester and London mostly in an alternate version of the present but also the...

    Just a thought about next season.....

    In the government guidance under social distancing in the workplace it says keep apart where possible. There's loads of people currently at work who can't maintain social distancing in the workplace, social media is full of people complaining they aren't being kept safe at work. Obviously not...

    Which are the guidelines that would prevent games being played? Be good to know what restrictions have to be lifted to realistically allow a restart.

    good news that they're still having promotions and relegation. can't see any system that could be used here that wouldn't see us promoted if they went down that route.

    Other than owning the freehold is it anything to do with the council? Not sure how they could step in without offering the same help to other businesses.

    Was worried the second series wouldn't live up to the first but it was brilliant. Think there's plenty of scope for a third series if he wants to break the habit of a lifetime. Definitely more to be told with Sandy's backstory. Some cracking one liners in there as well.

    I've got no idea when football will restart, wasn't aware I'd suggested I had. But when it does I would assume the rules still apply. Does it even need social distancing to end? You're currently allowed to travel to a place of work and HSE say distancing should be maintained where possible...

    Wasn't aware of footballers were requesting PPE in order for games to go ahead but yes, absolutely, they should be able to sue if they are forced to play in unsafe conditions. Or the better option would be for the PFA to step in and say nobody will play if the FA and EFL put forward something...

    Its a tough watch tonight. Sure I'm not the only one who is raging at what I am seeing. Even some of the basic stuff like counting each individual glove as a piece of PPE equipment and counting regular cleaning supplied. So said when one NHS employee said they get called so to make it ok when...

    This money they're giving to the relatives of key workers who have tragically died. Are they going to have to sign paperwork which means they can't sue the government for negligence if they receive the money?

    League rules mean even if a loan ends they can't play for the parent club: Rule 53.1.4: “A player whose standard loan expires (or terminates) at the end of the season of the transferee club but prior to the completion of the league matches of his parent club (where it is a member club) will not...

    Odd that they're taking questions from the public given the way the Conservative benches acted when Corbyn did the same in PMQs.

    This is the key line, many football clubs are financial basket cases without something like this coming along.
