I believe UEFA have suspended FFP for their competitions UEFA's statement read: "The deadlines related to all 2020/21 UEFA club competitions are postponed until further notice, in particular as regards the admission process and the registration of players. UEFA will set new deadlines in due cou...

Grim and complicated is my take away

Germany has 3 X more ICU beds per head of population than the UK also

Capitalism as it stands is shot... not too hopeful about what takes its place.

Anyone see that movie Elysium?...

Its now about capacity and whether the health system can cope with the influx of these patients on top of the 'normal' caseload. The models I've seen suggest ours won't and that's when you get big rises in morbidity and mortality, not just from those infected. The Netherlands numbers look worrying n...

Looks like it doesn't discriminate after all

Assuming you are under 50 and don't have an elderly relative you might transmit it to, Or have asthma or another chronic condition, Or a BMI over 40, If you need hospital care from next week onwards, it will be sub optimal as the system gets overwhelmed by respiratory cases, Don't wait to practice s...

From Feyenoord

Ok, that was interesting. No passing out from the back. Trying to play long and with more urgency. Actually his BBCRB post match assessment was pretty much what I witnessed, so credit for not BSing what actually happened Also paraphrased Napoleaon vis Graham Taylor, "better to be a lucky manage...

Make sure each pass is played with a purpose and not for the sake of passing Press and harry the other t...

Does anyone know what Bowen's footballing principles are? He used the word 'pragmatic' in one of the (pretty poor actually) interviews on social media, as well as intensity and enthusiasm. Am I reading too much into this and thinking we will be more direct? I'd be interested in any thoughts on what ...

Someone somewhere suggested Jason Roberts.

I'd take a talisman with an astute #2

as my mate said at the last game:

the managers change, the players change, the owners change..... and we are still awful...

we've got to accept that as the only consistent thing, its down to us...

You live and die by your results and ultimately ours have been poor. More than that, the tactical naivety of the last few games did it for me. A good talker and a handsome charmer, but as in business, those types tend to come unstuck if there's no substance... We have the squad, now we need a high i...

Erm. Social media buzz?

Ah, ok, yea, I can see how Liverpool FC would need the clickbait of adding an agreement to buy at the end of the season...
