Football The 2019/2020 Season Thread

Seems footballers having being trying really hard recently to get themselves in trouble during lockdown - Chelsea star Callum Hudson-Odoi arrested after 4am row with model who rang police and ambulance | Daily Mail Online

Scottish prem is cancelled and herts i think it is making a legal challenge about relegation.

Six positives from 3 clubs out of 748 players/staff tested across the Premier League.

 

[Moriath]

 

[Moriath]

4 more premier players tested +ve.

thats still getting +ve results after their third round of testing.

 

[caLLous]

It's still only 12 positives from nearly 2,800 tests.

 

[Moriath]

But they cant play till theres 0 otherwise whole teams will have to be locked down

 

[Scouse]

They'll be gunning for permanent rights to show all matches - including all 3pm kick-offs.

Bye-bye listening on 5-live. And bye-bye attendance in stadia - why pay £50/ticket when you can spend it on beer and watch the match for free?

 

[Ormorof]

I read that article and missed the part that said matches should be shown for free?

Was being floated by the government separately.

3pm kick off's are never shown in the UK because of (primarily fan's) concerns about match attendance.

Coronavirus looks like an opportunity to scrap that tbh.

(Just like VAR is transparently about inserting advertising space in the most valuable TV on the planet, under the bullshit pretence of fairness that the public have sucked down. - turns out business lacks scruples eh)

I thpught it was just for the completion of this season. Not after that. And nerf having to register to read. Almost as bad as a pay wall tbh

 

[Ormorof]

Theres a "not now" button at least for me when the please register pops up

The guardian has a "fuck off" button.

Thin end of the wedge @Moriath. If they can show 3pm games now, when not in the future?

Cause in the future 3pm is an option for the fans to go. At the moment that option isnt there.

 

[Moriath]

Premier League to restart on 17 June with Man City v Arsenal and Villa v Sheff Utd

Once the door is open...

And 1 from fifth round of testing.

Seems we are going for Timo Werner.

Diego Costa pictured arriving at court in Madrid to settle tax fraud case | Daily Mail Online

I've always wondered if they are also required to pay the original sum they failed to pay as well as the fine?

Dont know. I would expect the fine to be on top. Though usually these guys negotiate a settlement.

Yes.

 

[caLLous]

Ah I missed Premier League football... and Premier League VAR fuckups.

 

[Moriath]

Hawkeye and var fuckup

 

[caLLous]

Fair enough, tbh. Obviously not for Sheffield United but I've never seen the system make a mistake before. You'd have thought the VAR guys would've had a look at a replay based on the reactions of the players - outrage from the Sheffield United players and a picture of utter guilt from Villa's keeper.

 

[Moriath]

Side show bob at it again twice today haha

I laughed seeing the goal and then getting sent off, classic Luiz.

What's the best way to stream Sky Pick online so I can watch the Everton v Liverpool match tonight?

Not got a telly, so I can't freeview it - it'll have to be streamed...

Dunno as I have a television but hope Lollerpool win. I want to see them win the PL in the next two games.

Although impossible I would love it if they choked

 

[Scouse]

Yeah I might sign up for now tv temporarily. They're doing 7 days free...
