Understand that only one presenter will be in the studio keeping us up to date. I'm sure they will find all kinds of rubbish to talk about 🙂 They should push for FIFA to open the transfer window early and they won't have a problem. I see Big Nige had a pop at Boris as well 😀 Link to post Share on other sites

Most of the people on here are likely to get it at some point. It's more of a question of when rather than if now. Link to post Share on other sites

DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 On a lighter note, if the season is scrapped has anyone asked the question of what will happen the Oneboro paid fantasy league? I'm definitely going to make a late surge and potentially win, so I'd be peeved to miss out on all that dough! Disclaimer: I'm most certainly not going to be close to winning!

OldManGravz 1,350 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Remember when we were younger, and when someone got chicken pox we were taken round there house to catch it early and get it over with? What I'm saying is get everyone to catch it and then the country can be back on track by the end of March Link to post Share on other sites

BoroMart 139 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 From a football impact, the season is over guys, time to face this. There is simply no scope to continue the season beyond its current boundary without compromising it. Player contracts run until June 1st, as do loan agreements. If the season were to be extended over the summer months, the integrity of the competition is gone because the squads will be different. You couldn't force any club to loan a player through an extended season and you couldn't force players to stay with a club once the contract has run out. From a club perspective, they will all lose income, which may tip some teams over FFP, and it may push some teams into financial meltdown. Even when the season restarts, it's likely to have an impact on the gates, people may be adverse to large crowds. From a player perspective, they will lose money, lack of appearance money may impact some players down the ladder and put their homes at risk. It's a mess 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Point still stands though, if this carries on as expected, football will shut down for at least 3 months, no time to play the matches without contracts running out. Link to post Share on other sites

However he wants population to get gradually Link to post Share on other sites
