What have you saved money on?

If there was no Premier League football for a year, which would presumably also mean no EPL football either, who would pick up the bill? (If no one did, half the latter would fold, surely?)

But surely there is no possibility of that for many months; perhaps a year?

I know little about the law but I imagine that it would be far harder for the PL to defend a claim from a club (Villa for example) that had been relegated from its riches by administrative decree with 92 games to play than it would to defend a claim from a club (Brentford for example) that...

This is repeating a post I made a week or so ago, but according to The Times, three ways of arriving at a final table (without actually playing the matches) exist... 1. Average points per game played to date - the effect would be to move Arsenal and Sheff Utd above Wolves and Spurs. 2. Take...

I'm free to go? Joy!

Not Andy Naylor was drawing attention to a statistical truth with a dose of black humour, quite possibly tasteless. Boris Johnson was referencing the specific fact that many people finally expire from coronavirus in a truly horrible way by his own jokey aside, also tasteless. Both comments seem...

I didn't say I wouldn't respond - I said I wouldn't respond in kind. And I won't. You carry on digging your hole though. I'm sure there are lots more words you can use to advance your case.

I shan't respond in kind - you're making enough of an exhibition of yourself without outside help.

Yes, and a friend of mine has. While she is still greatly mourned I will leave you to carry spitting your noisy venom. Can you confirm that you regard Boris Johnson as being a horrible f#cking c#nt for his comment?

I believe that the club were in touch with Dick on his birthday.

What are you talking about?

I put Not Andy Naylor's remark under the heading of black comedy, rather like Johnson's suggestion that the programme to build more ventilators should be called 'Operation Last Gasp'. You might not come out with either in certain company but your faux outrage is frankly childlike. Unless of...

What about using the bread maker to help prepare the dough and doing the rest by hand and in the oven?

Boris is the man who will stand at his window watching a protest march go by and, if it is a very big protest, will dash out of his house, overtake all the marchers and when he gets to the front cry "Follow me!"

Mind you, if our government does a cracking trade deal with the Saudis, not to mention any other regime with a dodgy human rights record, we will have no option but to share the spoils. And that, it seems, is more likely than it used to be.

Indeed, and I never suggested there would be. If the season was voided the most obvious threat of legal action would involve commercial partners. Perhaps that could be headed off. Perhaps not. I don't know. If the season was concluded early - rather than voided - the main threat of legal...

It's not just football though. Nowhere is perfect but there are parts of the world I'd like my country to be more associated with and others I'd like to see us keep more of a distance from. The direction of travel has not been encouraging recently, and it still isn't. Perhaps we're not in a...

I accept your point of course but the assumption that finishing in one of the top three Championship places leads to promotion is so widely held and universally applied that it can reasonably be regarded as 'a rule' in the context. (I'm actually nearly on your side on this - I prefer voiding...

But wouldn't cancelling (i.e. voiding) represent the biggest rule-change of all? Every single regulation regarding promotion, relegation, CL qualification and the Premier League Crown would be torn up. Similarly playing behind closed doors - most of the established and accepted arrangements...
