    Playstation Now

    Although I have been on first gen Playstation etc round a friends house just to join in but never got into it or bothered by it. Not been on a console for well over 10 years. Never seen Star Trek or Who, but have seen Star Wars, Potter and LotR again as a social thing but not massive fans. But...

    I'm talking about the power of the TV companies. I'm talking about Sky etc not putting in the same bids for TV rights they have done. If they don't and no-one else is willing to offer it what are the clubs going to do? Force them to up their bids? Not going to happen. They'd have to accept the...

    If you really don't get it then maybe you ought to consider whether or not you actually understand capitalism, especially in it's purest form.

    You're supposed to be the rabid marketeer. If a business or industry can no longer sustain itself then it should die and be replaced by one that can. And whose to say there aren't transfer fees attached to those clauses? Post Bosman every club should factor in they could lose a player for...

    Next seasons kits

    Yep. Collectors items are rarities i.e. the ones people didn't like and very few bought.

    Market conditions. If the TV companies ain't willing to part with the dosh you ain't gonna be able to pay those wages. Which leaves players with the choice to either accept lower wages reflecting the change in circumstances or go into another profession that will. Given the average intelligence...

    Football wouldn't cease to exist at all. It would just have to reassess it's finances and transfer spending and wage structures. Maybe kicking a bag of air around isn't worth £300k a week and a player isn't worth £100m? Plus with my analogy do you not think the company would be being paid for...

    Mr Tickle is a man very much in demand at the moment! Seems all is forgiven for the years of harassment and inappropriate touching.

    Those hospitals were always extra capacity if needed. It was a preparation that was actually correct. If the virus had been worse and hospital beds ran out and they hadn't created these emergency hospitals it'd be considered a scandal nothing was in place to increase capacity.

    If you focus on the individual when things go bad you can change it and thus slightly disassociate yourself as a party from it. "We've got rid of the one that let you down. So vote for us again" Let the leader have the glory if things go well, but make sure they're the scaprgoat when things go...

    When All This Is Over ?

    I think short-term people will be a bit more careful but will slowly go back to old habits. Esp when renewed work pressures and the economic situation take precedence and time becomes a precious commodity. Might see a few more facemasks being worn as the norm and more homeworking but that's it...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Given his supposed diet I'd have thought he was constantly bunged up.

    Ok, so next season becomes an absolute lottery in terms of fixtures. You're creating issues where there doesn't need to be any. Rather than constrain yourself to a timescale for two seasons and end up fucking them both you can give yourself some leeway and make sure his one is done properly...
