[Football] Going to the Game Saturday or Staying away because of Corona Virus?

[PILTDOWN MAN]

I might go now just to self isolate and watch the grass grow

 

[perseus]

I'm not getting on a crowded train without a very good reason. But that was before the crisis.

I've been self isolating because of the awful weather.

Anyone know if Dick's is open?

It begs the question what level of communication clubs are having with the Premier League.

Surely as soon as he exhibited symptoms and a test was scheduled [which must have been at least a couple of days ago] they should have told the League? Weird all round behaviour when you think about all possible outcomes:

1. No dialogue between League and any clubs - league announce all games on without checking all clubs if there are any outstanding tests that could hamper their ability to fulfil a fixture. Odd.

2. League announce games on despite knowledge Arteta had been tested. Weird not to wait on result first or simply told they will force Arsenal to fulfil fixture or forfeit the game (in reality this won’t happen now)

You are assuming a lot, Arsenal stated they were not going to test their players/staff after the olympiacos game. Arteta subsequently after being unwell got tested so hence the late announcement. If the EFL would demand all their players be tested in advance of every game I could see the headlines of the selfish rich EFL burdening the NHS for no good reason. It is a balance.

Would be great if more of us cycled to the game. For me would be less of a risk than going to work and i cycle there too.

I have cycled from Shoreham a few times. I don't consider the route safe enough.
