    That’s true but part of the reason they are putting their foot down is because there isn’t enough support available for the businesses closing.

    Exactly. They always use rate of change as a get out if a journalist asks why one area has certain restrictions but as pointed out it clearly isn’t.

    Brilliant. Just multiply cases per 1000 by rate of change and define a limit for each tier. This should have been worked out and put in place during the first lockdown, it’s fucking basic stuff.

    National lockdown by Christmas because they don’t want to spend any more money or curb freedoms further.

    In fairness could also be based on rate of change. Any idea what that is for those two areas? Of course it’s just as likely to be guesswork so don’t put yourself out.

    Going to go out on a limb and guess that they will never say what numbers get you in or out of each tier and eventually the system will just be replaced with another arbitrary set of rules in a few months designed to deflect whatever criticism they are facing at the time.

    Absolute farce. Basically betting shops and non-food pubs shut in one city? Yeah, that should do it.

    The strategy seems to be take random, relatively light measures while hoping for the best, despite the weight of overwhelming evidence that the “strategy” isn’t working. For me, the biggest failure is the lack of preparation done over the summer while we were doing OK. There’s no real plan for...

    Pretending to be rational libertarians was the same trick used to get people behind Trump and is as much about owning the Dems/hating labour as actually supporting Trump/Johnson. Watching anything remotely conservative on YouTube just seems to send you down a rabbit hole of people like Ben...

    Is another signing really needed?

    Nah it will be Baka who scores the winner in the play offs.

    Is another signing really needed?

    Exa Exactly this. I assume we have no more left for wages so seems a moot discussion. If we can get rid of anyone, and I think we’ll struggle to get rid of any of the players we don’t want, then our priority should probably be an experienced back up keeper.
