    You're supposed to be the rabid marketeer. If a business or industry can no longer sustain itself then it should die and be replaced by one that can. And whose to say there aren't transfer fees attached to those clauses? Post Bosman every club should factor in they could lose a player for...

    Yep. Collectors items are rarities i.e. the ones people didn't like and very few bought.

    Market conditions. If the TV companies ain't willing to part with the dosh you ain't gonna be able to pay those wages. Which leaves players with the choice to either accept lower wages reflecting the change in circumstances or go into another profession that will. Given the average intelligence...

    Football wouldn't cease to exist at all. It would just have to reassess it's finances and transfer spending and wage structures. Maybe kicking a bag of air around isn't worth £300k a week and a player isn't worth £100m? Plus with my analogy do you not think the company would be being paid for...

    Mr Tickle is a man very much in demand at the moment! Seems all is forgiven for the years of harassment and inappropriate touching.

    Those hospitals were always extra capacity if needed. It was a preparation that was actually correct. If the virus had been worse and hospital beds ran out and they hadn't created these emergency hospitals it'd be considered a scandal nothing was in place to increase capacity.

    And Gove is an uncharismatic fool.

    If you focus on the individual when things go bad you can change it and thus slightly disassociate yourself as a party from it. "We've got rid of the one that let you down. So vote for us again" Let the leader have the glory if things go well, but make sure they're the scaprgoat when things go...

    When All This Is Over ?

    I think short-term people will be a bit more careful but will slowly go back to old habits. Esp when renewed work pressures and the economic situation take precedence and time becomes a precious commodity. Might see a few more facemasks being worn as the norm and more homeworking but that's it...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Given his supposed diet I'd have thought he was constantly bunged up.

    Ok, so next season becomes an absolute lottery in terms of fixtures. You're creating issues where there doesn't need to be any. Rather than constrain yourself to a timescale for two seasons and end up fucking them both you can give yourself some leeway and make sure his one is done properly...

    But such as decision would add to growing list of fuck-ups and incompetence.

    I do think it needs to be ascertained exactly what the facts are regarding PPE, ventilators, testing, policy early on before shooting the mouth of. If you go early and some things are later shown to just be rumours that were unverified it will just give the Tories ammo to fight back. Being a...

    Gove has the naked ambition of Johnson. Nowhere near the charisma. Be a huge mistake to get rid of Johnson for him. At the moment I think if Sunak were to go for it he might have a problem. Comes across far more composed, young and energetic. Plus it'd tick a diversity box. However hearing...

    Not got a slight self -interest in that at all?

    Already gone through this. Promotion but no relegation means more games to play less season with a high likelihood of disruption due to new lockdown to manage cases. Just asking for even bigger problems later on. Finish this season, however long it takes, and if we're then in a position to play...

    Yep. He's the one that is most like Farage and so can negate his effect making sure the right leaning vote continues to vote Tory.

    I think they are trying to get it and are having problems, but at the same time the bean counters will only let them get so much. Plus it still doesn't explain why, when told this was one of the most likely crises to occur, the PPE etc was not stockpiled in case of emergency or even when the...
