I agree. Just play the games without the players. They're irrelevant

 

The latest poll suggests 80% were actually worried about a return to work / school etc , i think most people are concerned about health - jobs etc than a game of Football to be fair .

 

Thought it was a bit above your grasp, never mind.

 

Apologies for going off track, but just preparing for a house move and came across this memento.It was one of the best days..other than Wembley of course..of my life.I was a guest of a match sponsor in May 1999 when we got promotion to the PL, on the final day of the season.In the hospitality lounge, amidst hundreds of partisan Wolves supporters,I scooped the 'match score' prize. And the walk through 'em all to collect it was akin to feeling like an alien! Oh how I wish that this season could have promised us so much more. Eh,I know I looked old back then..but just imagine how I look now folks..certainly not Avatar material!

 

Be quiet Fordy. Your wumming on football is one thing but this is actually serious.

 

I've got 8 bar staff. Currently the bars are open here until 22:00. However, during the two months, I decided to close the bar because a) there weren't many customers and b) I thought it was the responsible thing to do. I put the workers on furlough, because I didn't want to lay them off, and also the 70% salary contribution from the Government was very welcome. I have to pay 150€ per worker, pay the taxes and the Government tops it up until May the 18th.

The last couple of weeks has seen restrictions on movement lifted, and that coupled with some decent weather has made more and more bars open up. For the past two weekends, I opened the bar and had a roaring trade, almost like there was no CV19 at all. The problem was, that I could only get two of my staff to work. The six who didn't work either had "other plans for that weekend" or were still a bit unsure about coming back to work in the current environment. So basically they stayed at home, took their monthly pay, but let two other workers do all their shifts - even though these two workers were getting the same pay as the ones not working, but making the effort to come and get behind the bar. Which I think is unfair.

It's definitely made me realise which of my staff are lazy, and which are prepared to work. On the 18th when the furlough is taken away, there will be loads of staff laid off and the market will be full of people looking for jobs. I pointed this out to the other six, and miraculously, they are all available to work this weekend!

 

Chris Taylor released. What a waste of time that's was, shocking player.

 

If we are attacking?

Plenty of time for resuscitation then.

 

We will find out in a couple of weeks. Because one thing is for sure the herd will be behaving badly on Saturday

 

Zero hospital admissions at BRI yesterday for the first time since March.

Will it hell.
Read the Blackpool statement again.
It's not rocket science and if I follow works it's the perfect solution in my opinion.
I won't miss a game even if I'm not in attendance.

 

It might put 1 or 2 off but in the main fans will still buy a ST. Without that revenue a lot of clubs will go to the wall quickly and that would include us.

Watching on Ifollow is about the best solution available until fans can be allowed back in numbers.

 

If that happens, I fear the PL will give the EFL a list of demands to go with the loaning of money. Main one being Premier league B teams in the EFL. Much like Spain etc. Game done then for me

 

Option 3- Not take your eye off the ball in the first place and then use a substantial windfall to cover the mess. Imagine if we received £2-3M in league 1 with the club already in good financial health. Top 3 budgets for years to come giving us several cracks to reach the Championship. Instead our main owner falls asleep at the wheel, we get relegated and discover we’re millions in debt to boot. Rupp and his imaginary investment can F off.

 

Its been reported today that the Premier League, EFL, FA and government have reached an agreement to play the remainder of the season behind closed doors in July over a 4-6 week period. As this means rolling into the 2020/21 season, they are considering scrapping the League Cup and EFL Trophy to ease fixture congestion.

Personally, when football returns, I think the priority should be to complete whats been started rather than voiding the season from both a financial and integrity point of view.
