    George Floyd

    Minneapolis City Council are announcing they are going to disband the police department. How does that work? They are saying they've tried reform in the past and it hasn't worked.

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    From speaking with owners of smaller music venues, which are essentially pubs, seems they've been told to be ready for July 4th. They've been told social distancing measures need to be in place but can't get any detail of what that actually means.

    George Floyd

    Its being renamed when they complete the current substantial renovation project. There's been campaigns going on for decades and the council have ignored all calls for the statue to be removed. They couldn't even agree what to put on an additional plaque to explain the issues. The Edward...

    George Floyd

    Not entirely sure something called the Churchill Project is giving an unbiased view. Will give it a read later though.

    George Floyd

    I'm not going to condone vandalism but its naive in the extreme to say Churchill has no relevance what so ever when its an anti-racism protest. He was about as racist as they come! "I cannot understand this squeamishness about the use of gas, I am strongly in favour of using poisoned gas...

    Great news from Scotland. Obviously only 1 day and the weekend reporting issue to take into account but can't really see this as anything but a positive.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Just wait until Johnson tracks down the person who negotiated the exit deal, he'll be in big trouble!

    Can't speak for anyone else but even if Boris gets on the TV tonight and tells us its all over and everything is cleared to open up I won't be rushing anywhere, and certainly not anywhere there's a crowd. I've gone this long will happily spend another 2-4 weeks in the house after things are...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Wycombe or Oxford for me as they're the easiest to get to.

    George Floyd

    Would be interesting to see where it ranks out of western countries, I would guess low but before anyone starts asking for links thats just a guess.

    The London one seemed by far the worst but then the idiot quota at any protest in London always seems higher. Did see that the organisers in London, and elsewhere, were urging people to maintain distancing and had setup sanitising stations. They were also handing out packs with hand sanitizer...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Completely agree with this. Seeing plenty of people who have not said a word when there was street parties, crowds clapping the NHS or people filling up parks & beaches but we're supposed to believe they're suddenly deeply concerned about crowds when its an anti-racism protest.

    News reporters have been classed as essential workers and the guidelines for people working is maintain social distancing where possible. I guess they would argue they need to be on the scene to cover the story effectively.

    8 years progress or regression

    50 years is pushing it but 25 years of going downhill means anyone in their mid 30s or younger has known nothing but failure. Before Robins our record for how long it had been since a Wembley visit or a top 6 finish was miles ahead of any other club.

    Memorial Park Gathering??

    I'd love a huge celebration but there's no way social distancing would be maintained. Prime Cov to finally win the league and get back in the Championship and not be able to have a celebration.

    Promotion party

    Our fans struggle with the concept of sitting in the seat thats printed on your ticket there's zero chance thousands of pissed up supporters down the park, or anywhere else for that matter, would maintain social distancing.

    96/97 LE COQ SPORTIF away shirts ?

    Are they actually genuine? Seems a bit of a coincidence that nobody had every heard of these until it became easier for people to produce knock off retro kits.

    Was a shocking interview. Hancock couldn't say how many people had been traced, couldn't say now many people had been tested and had no idea when the app will be ready. Surely they are all softball questions that would have been expected. Didn't do much better when asked how many black people...

    WASPS Interim Accounts 2019

    Think the only thing we've been told on that is its usually about 12 months from when its raised. We're past that now so who knows.
