Players contracts still exist if the games are played or not so surely its to the clubs advantage to play games and get back whatever revenue they can? Furlough only covers a portion of wages. Surely we'd bring in more revenue from playing games than just claiming furlough and having to hand...

If you don't complete the season then anyone who has paid for broadcast rights, sponsorship & advertising or tickets would have a decent case I'd think. Basically anyone who has paid for something they haven't received.

Was listening to a podcast yesterday and they threw out the stat that 85% don't like their job. Quick google seems to suggest there are polls that back it up. That must have a huge impact on peoples overall happiness given how much of our life is taken up with work. Not to mention that things...

Speaking of stacking how are they getting it on the shelves without touching it?

Couple of academics did a paper on the TV rights and came to exactly that conclusion:

Think the Premier League would be foolish to just assume the value of the rights will keep rising, at some point it will top out and level off. The TV companies have to make money and there's a limit to how much people will pay. Fragmenting the market doesn't help there. Does anyone really think...

Remember that PPE from Turkey that was going to be here Sunday but was then 'delayed'? Coronavirus: UK only formally asked Turkey for PPE shipment help on Sunday - after telling Britons it was on its way

Interesting not seen anything about that. Which other clubs want ifollow stopped? Seems an odd decision to be pushing to end a revenue stream.

Emergence started last night on Fox. Decent first episode, worth a watch.

He's against streaming as well and blocks their games being streamed whenever he can. Could make the same argument about attendances. Should we stop having football completely because Accrington get low crowds?

Exactly. If it was corona why would it just lie dormant for months, makes no sense. Just some other weird bug that wouldn't shift.

Commute to Blythe Valley Business Park every day but thats about it so wouldn't have thought that was above average.

After a decade of austerity council's didn't have the services to cope with this outbreak. They were told to spend whatever was needed and they'd get it back but it looks like there are now doubts that will happen.

There's definitely something odd been going around. I've had something for months that I haven't been able to shake. Been to the doctors a few times and they couldn't really help. Tried antibiotics as they thought it was a chest infection, did nothing. Even got sent for an x-ray to check for...

Really hoping this turns out to be 'fake news' but it does seem to stand up to scrutiny. 128 twitter profiles of NHS staff found to be fake and traced back to the Department of Health and Social Care.

Wouldn't care if it was just their health and livelihoods they were putting in danger. If people are that stupid and want to ignore the experts then that's their issue. Problem is their actions are going to impact others. How many will they infect? How long will their action extend lockdown?

Remember at yesterdays briefing when they said loads of PPE was being delivered today, guess what? Coronavirus: Delivery of 84 tonnes of protective equipment for NHS delayed

We've got less of a lockdown than many other countries. Other countries don't let you leave the house without permission yet here we still have non-essential workers travelling to work every day and arguments about who is and isn't allowed to use parks.

Pretty simple explanation, Murdoch / Times back Gove, Telegraph backs Johnson.
