Nah Nick would just two-foot him onto the naughty step and make him clap the NHS until his hands were little more than stumps. Good old fashioned sensible parenting.

But they could also claim the situation arose because the EFl hadn't planned for the possibility, so they are still at fault for not setting out guidelines and thus liable. I've got no idea which way any of these cases would go. It's usually safer to err on side of defendant as onus of proof...

So the season would start at a point when it would ordinarily be halfway through. And no-one can see a knock-on problem from this? If we can't play until Jan then that'd be just under a year from when it was postponed. So just carry on from where we are now.

Footballers aren't astronauts though. They're young men who have a tendency to be impetuous and increasingly self-important given their wealth and influence. We've had issues before at world cups where managers have said the biggest problem is keeping them entertained over the tournament...

There is the issue of influence over society though. Few people will look at Dave the bricklayer and thinks "we'll if he's not following the guidelines I'm not". In fact few people will even see him at all. Make it Harry Kane on a football field spending all day grappling with a centre back...

If they go PPG Wycombe shoot up the table and could end up being promoted if no play-offs even though they're currently outside play off places

Do you reckon we had a less strict lockdown because we're more stand-offish and reserved as a nation so it wasn't as necessary? Just gave us an excuse to do what comes naturally

They were all talking about how amazing it was how an old person could have a No.1. From my experience with grandparents etc old people are constantly having no.1's. The thing that got me was they were saying who great it was a 99yo was top of the charts and ignoring the fact a 103yo was fav...

You misheard. He climbed Evelyn on the stairs.

Are they going for the middle aged dogging community?

Top. Even if you adjust it taking into account current league positions for deciding remaining games and home/away bias. I did do the maths in a post somewhere

Eh? So, are people less likely to contract coronavirus outside the penalty area? Going to be some very high scoring games if this happened. And what if there is - is it just a drop ball to the keeper like the current rule? In which case every def will make contact, ref will stop pay and keeper...

It will. It will just be where is the point where the economic gain is considered to be more worthwhile than the expected health cost. It will be a high threshold but ultimately football will restart for economic reasons before the health reasons have disappeared

It would have also begged the question "when did we decimalise time?"

How does knowing all the words to the Dead Parrot Sketch help? If you can't get it to work rather than turn it off and turn it on again do you just shout "You're a very naughty boy!" at it?

I didn't read the quote attached and so I read this

In Japan etc there have been cases in the courts of people suing for defamation of their online personas. With influencers and the like it's going to happen. We'll look back on service industry and finance and think of it in the terms we consider manufacturing and farming.

To be fair some of those images of Pluto have been taken by probes passing 'relatively' close to it. And pluto isn't moving at the same speed (relative to the camera) as a UFO often is. Plus you don't have Chad from rural Tennessee as a cameraman.

They use Batman?

Nah, they just pass it onto Mulder and Scully.
