    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Not sure Djokovic is really in a position to be telling others how they should manage covid restrictions given how the tournament he put on went.

    Self entitled pricks. They knew the situation when they went there. The fact that there's people in the group testing posting shows they're absolutely right to have the quarantine in place.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Was alegedely first recommended to the government in February last year, by March even Patel was calling for the borders to be closed with the press reporting she got slapped down by No 10. Even the Daily Mail seemed up for it, perhaps not a surprise they didn't want to let foreigners in! This...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    These idiots have posted everything they were doing online, going to be some of the easiest convictions ever. Can't see Trump pardoning them, as mad as he is that would be him admitting they were acting on his instruction which would blow any defence he makes of his impeachment out of the water...

    Richard Keogh

    I'd forgotten he was at MK Dons to be honest. Is he fit to play or still recovering? Can't see there being much to this rumour.

    Another thing that seems to be ignored is that those who get in it and then 'recover' potentially have permeant lung and / or heart damage. We simply don't know how that is going to play out in the years to come. Might be nothing, hopefully isn't, but not sure its something that can just be...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Was just going to post this. Over 70s seem to be getting used interchangeably with at risk and they're massively different groups, albeit with some overlap. The first phase priority group for vaccination is based on who is more at risk and that's everyone over 50 plus staff working in care...

    Hilsner loaned out

    That's exactly why he'll have been loaned out. Not played for ages so needs to get his fitness back up to speed. Saying a player who hasn't made it onto the pitch by the halfway point of the season isn't going to make it here is hardly going out on a limb. Its also a very different statement to...

    Derby unable to pay players wages

    Unless something is done to make teams spend within their means I don't see how we can really look much higher than bottom third of the Championship at best. Staying in the division for any extended period of time is probably an overachievement. If you look at recent seasons and the losses...

    Thought one of the advantages of the Cambridge vaccine was it could be easily stored. Why would they just chuck it away? And even if it can't be stored surely pretty easy to have a reserve list of people who will turn up at short notice. The vaccination centre for my doctors is about 5 minutes...

    New signing! Viktor Gyökeres

    Decent effort by the club, think this is about the best level of signing we could hope for. Lets hope he wants to prove a point and starts banging them in.

    Derby unable to pay players wages

    You'd have to sell a hell of a lot of pies to compete with clubs who have owners prepared to check £10m or more a season into a black hole in the hopes of reaching the Prem. Even if somehow we woke up tomorrow and the club had ownership of the Ricoh without paying a penny for it I'm not sure...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    What criteria are you using here as 'bad health conditions'? Are you using those in vaccine priority group 4 which is clinically extremely vulnerable, or group 6 which is at-risk or anyone who would be classed as having a pre-existing condition on the ONS covid death stats?

    This is an interesting thread on compliance with the regulations. Probably isn't going to calm you down much reading it :ROFLMAO:

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Apparently not but there is a theory that if Trump pardons himself it would serve as an admission of guilt which would open the floodgates for civil cases.

    Premier league, FA and EFL statement

    With no fans travelling should be able to schedule games in at pretty short notice if needed.

    Best TV shows or movies you can recommend

    Disney+ is well worth a subscription IMO. As well as the Disney, Pixar Star Wars and Marvel stuff there's a ton of documentaries from National Geographic. They've got a new 'channel' starting next month as well, Star, which will have things like 24, Lost, X-Files, basically anything from 20th...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Suspect the ones that have been offered Manchester is down to someone entering some wrong data somewhere. In any case 'outrage' is a bit over the top. The offer of vaccination at one of the mass vaccination centres is an optional way to get done sooner, if you prefer to have it done locally you...

    Derby unable to pay players wages

    The house of cards has to come crashing down at some point. There has been warning after warning but in reality very little has been done to sort out overspending and get things under control. What we're seeing now is not so much a result of covid as it is covid accelerating what would have...
