Is it bad that my first reaction was “maybe we can get Afobe back with more games to play”?

Unfortunately his loan will expire at some point (June 1st at latest) 

At least we have an option to buy , but if this continues would have to do so without seeing him play another game

At least we'll make it through March unbeaten.

And considering our usual points gathering at this time of year , our points tally won’t suffer

It is an interesting idea but presumably it would need to then be set back on track at some point? Would we need the 2022/2023 season to run half a season and everyone play each other once in a randomly allocated manner in order to get back on track?

I fear that this crisis may run a long course yet and we’ve only seen the start of the disruption

(Some posts early in this thread are priceless)

As it stands, 

Start planning to aim to finish this season by The end of the year, or end of Dec - Breathing room , hopefully , maybe

if season finished before Dec - Fill with compact FA Cup
 

Jan - May 21

Each Division split into two halves , North & South (Game wise home & away = a half season )

Top two in each Premier League Group qualify for Champions League, and a Mega Play Off for the title

Bottom two Clubs in each Premier League Group relegated 

Top Two in each Championship , and Divisional groups are promoted , Bottom two teams  in each group relegated 

Sorted

I'm currently on Gloucester Road having coffee and breakfast. So far I have seen 6 people wearing face masks.

Which is far from normal. So clearly people are taking this seriously, or at least trying to protect themselves.

Think , in fairness, you need to bear in mind your proximity to the swamp

Edit: to provide some context I should explain that for families like mine this is incredibly serious. We cannot risk visitors, we cannot risk any optional contact as the consequences could be grave. 

As it stands, we have banned all visitors from our house, all visits elsewhere. Our shopping is delivered and left at the door. Our children are days from being pulled from school. Myself and my daughter may need to move out for months, maybe. I may even need to resign my job to isolate myself. 

If my son contracts it, well...

Respect

No doubt some on here will think ‘Wtf’ , but in your situation it must be extremely tough , and complicated

But don’t listen to the authorities , ignore them and listen to the toy salesman from St George - he’s the expert

Thought I’d click on one post to see what nonsense you have posted again. Blocking you is better than interacting. More lies. Never said Corbyn would win. Before this season I went to 25 games a season. 10 this season for reasons explained. Careful you don’t get another ban for sending threats on a forum.  Big strong Bob.  

Back to being blocked. 

Amazing it took you so long to have a nose womble

No problem. We’ve all done it.  Not healthy to agree with bob though! First sign of madness!

Coming from someone who rarely goes to games , posts dribble about a whole host of subjects ,   as a second occupation ( and someone who thought Corbyn could win a General Election  )

Priceless 

PS

Did you go to Huddersfield .......it’s just that you havnt mentioned whether you were

I said I’m not one to panic, I certainly haven’t allowed any media hype to ‘sweep me up’ - I still think I’m more likely to get bitten by a snake or kicked to death by a donkey - but it doesn’t mean you weren’t wrong - ‘barely a case in this country’ without thinking about the near future was incorrect .... the cases in this country have doubled over a few days ...not sure why my post expressing concern about vulnerable people is dismissed by you as being ‘odd’ ?! 

So insignificant we are budgeting £40 million to try and find a anti virus

When was I wrong?  I said it would be ridiculous to cancel or postpone the season. And it would be. There is barely a case in this country!  Again, that wasn’t wrong. China situation is improving.  If it isn’t why are factories opening again and capacity increasing?  15% capacity last week. 25% this week.  I’ve got a 2-3 week delay on goods.  Not too bad.  

Thanks for confirming my correct statements. Seems like you are allowing the hyped up media to sweep you up.   

Have I suggested we act irresponsibly? Your post is very odd indeed.  

Everyone should go about their lives as normal and take the recommended precautions.  Not attending football matches is not currently a recommended precaution.

Barely a case ?

Unsurprisingly we’ve  had the largest jump in the number of cases reported in UK

’Only’ two fatalities to date

There is a over reaction , but in the same way your post is arrogant and dismissive

You may be more concerned, and not so arrogant  if you had vulnerable children or elderly relatives or friends

Must have been written by a shithead. Every other club`s fans love them to bits and would never say such horrid things.

Some shithead texted TalkSport earlier

They were debating what Pep would experience if Man City fell down the leagues and he stuck with them , as he’s promised

They Promptly read out the text

’Pep would be heard mumbling. ‘Is this a circus’    what are all these tents , when he visited Bristol Roves Minimal Ground’

Scabby gits.

The Sag literally ignored the ball and made a beeline for the defender to make the collision

Don’t confuse the Cidermen ! 

Essex 9-1

75 overs left in day 

Cmon you Bears 

Browne gone 0-1

Drama again at Edgbaston, Nick Browne has gone in the first over, caught at third slip. The batsman thinks it has bounced and the umpires have consulted but the wicket is confirmed. Are Essex going to subside? Still 193 behind

Essex all out

I wonder what the saggies are watching on TV tonight. We`ve been trying to decide which of our players we`ll watch in their respective Euro qualifiers whereas it`s probably been British Bake Off or something for them.

Was thinking that earlier - How times have changed !

Wow! Really?

They were actually chanting this during their recent game when they remembered him?

No , when he returned to play against them  for ? Forest ?
