    Coronavirus (CCFC Related)

    Games played. Having got this far even if we went up as champions on avg points it'd feel sullied. I'd rather go up properly or fail utterly on resumption.

    First ever CCFC memories ?

    First memory is watching the cup final and all the build up on TV. 2nd is standing on Walsgrave Rd the day after watching the bus parade. Third is my first match the following Jan and our first game in defence of the cup. Beat Torquay 2-0. Standing on a box in the east end to see over the wall...

    Are we in some sort of war

    Yeah - really bizarre. At least I was sensible and just stocked up on my German sausage and cheese so I was prepared for a Wurst Kase scenario.

    Because it's spin. Yes, BAME communities are more at risk, but she's using that to push an agenda. There are more males affected than females, despite there being marginally more women than men in our society and men on the whole having more advantages in life than women. Why has that not been...

    No, but it is biased. Why not counterpoint it with a video showing white people also not adhering to the distancing - there's plenty available. Fact is you always choose to show those of minorities flouting the rules. Gotta ask why that is.

    But is it cos they is black? Black Americans are far more likely to live inner city, in apartments blocks etc where social distancing etc is harder. This is linked to higher levels of poverty within that community. While the statistic may well be true, it would seem some are trying to spin a...

    But there are also loads showing white people not following social distancing rules etc. Can't just pick and choose. It'll be months, if not years, before all this data can be properly analysed and cross referenced with socio-demographic data like age, sex, ethnicity, wealth, weight etc. to...

    Today is very special

    We've been waiting for things to get better for what seems like billions of years. Still can't see those words and not immediately get the image of Kinnock/Mandelson/Prescott etc after Labour's election win

    That's awful. I can't imagine what the family is going through.

    Maybe. He does seem to think more like a comedian than a politician in that respect, looking for the quick remark and entertaining the crowd rather than if it's a sensible thing for someone in his position to say.

    Doesn't matter in this day and age. As long as you can get it repeated often enough and enough people believing it whether it's bollocks is irrelevant. Didn't matter at the last election or the referendum. Only reason they would chose to ignore it is because of Saville's links to the Thatcher...

    Plus they bore the major brunt of WWI and effectively lost a generation. So a generation later in WWII they didn't have as many able people to resist.

    I was using the expected death rate because the initial comment I believe was about closing the schools would 'only reduce deaths by 3-4%'.

    Doing tests. Not passed tests. No-one should be pushing it as a cure/help at this moment in time. Trump is.

    It is a big deal. In fact it's a massive deal. When you're the head of state during a crisis and you want people to take it seriously and you flippantly show disdain and disregard for the medical advice in front of the TV cameras you're encouraging people to also ignore it and thus endangering...

    It won't help him as chances are it will have caused some minor lung damage. But hopefully he will come through it and recover soon.

    But if we end up having say 20k deaths as expected that's between 600 and 800 deaths!

    Disgraceful behaviour by the US. Commandeered US made ventilators destined for abroad that had been paid for, then when someone else does similar to them with a drug (which hasn't passed any clinical trials and on Trump's 'advice' is causing problems for American's taking it) they threaten them...

    But he was offered the opportunity to deny he had ever said it and didn't do so, instead doing the usual politician speak of babbling on about some other point.
