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

    They can suggest them but the EFL regulations say they don't have to allow submitted proposals from member club to proceed to a vote.

    George Floyd

    We're at a point now where we'll see if all those people that insisted they needed their guns to maintain their second amendment rights were telling the truth or not.

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

    Why is she talking about clubs voting for it? Haven't seen anything from the EFL to say they are allowing a proposal from Tranmere to be voted on. Doesn't this also mean she is now admitting the proposal last week, that she was saying had been put together by expert and was the best possible...

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

    A lot was made in the Brexit campaign of taking back control and the sovereignty of parliament. In light of that would be interested in peoples thoughts on MPs unable to attended parliament due to the current coronavirus situation having their ability to vote removed. As well as reduced time for...

    George Floyd

    Start at the top. They've got a racist President and we've got a racist Prime Minister, not a surprise then that racists feel they can be more out in the open. A lot of the base issues are under the ultimate control of government. Start by eliminating racism in the police, zero tolerance. Then...

    Transfer rumours (isn't it nice to talk about football!)

    Assuming Jones is fit for the start of the season, whenever that is, and we're in the Championship would probably be worth sending him out on loan to get game time. He's not going to walk straight into a Championship side after so long out and with no experience at that level. Be better off...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Is that article right? The ONS report 12,288 deaths in England and Wales for week 21. The 5 year average is 9,940. Think they're just comparing non-covid19 deaths which are down 2.4% below the 5 year average this week but that's not usual. Before we recorded our first covid19 death we'd only...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Who do you think is? To me this all seems in line with Trumps beliefs and general incompetence. Throughout Trumps first term he has played to the far right and allowed them to become increasingly emboldened. Now, at a time he should be calling for calm, he's in the rose garden talking about the...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    He's lost the plot completely. The world has just watched live coverage of peaceful protesters being tear gassed so Trump can stand outside a boarded up church holding a bible upside down for a photo op.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Has he just declared war on his own country? If this was another country the west would be calling for regime change.

    Is it any wonder racists in America are more comfortable being openly racists under Trump? Stolen from twitter;

    Lyle Taylor

    You'd force a player that doesn't want to play in a maximum of what, 2 games, before his contract expires? Are you sure players in that situation would be giving it 100% rather than being primarily concerned in ensuring they don't pick up an injury? What is the league doing to ensure there...

    George Floyd

    There's so much of this online its astonishing. Goes way past the 'bad apples' argument. And if it was just a few bad cops why are the rest of them standing around watching? The flip side is the footage online of a white member of the public dressed up in full combat gear brandishing a weapon...

    We don't have a working track and trace system. Even the government admits that won't be until the end of June.

    Presumably they have published this scientific advice so other scientists can evaluate it and confirm the government actions are correct? Unfortunately its a bit hard to just trust Johnson with his history and given several members of SAGE have said the course of action the government is taking...

    Next year season tickets

    That was a campaign about away ticket prices. It was also launched in 2015 so you've got 5 years of inflation to add for a start.

    Lyle Taylor

    If they start on June 20 he will only be under contract for 10 days, there's no way they're completing all the remaining games in 10 days so the reality is they are asking players to play without a contract. So what happens if he plays and gets a career ending injury?
