If there could be one thing worse than this Tory government handling the crises, it would be that somebody would take your comments seriously. It is not worth asking you for evidence to supports your absurd utterances.

You are being spitefully disingenuous, managers fit clubs simple as that; culture, ambitions, strategy all aspects have to fit. Koeman found his natural home here and it worked. Of course there were ups and downs but he built us into a formidable opponent for any team in the PL by the time he was forced out. Our current boss has had one hell of a switchback ride since he arrived, much worse than Koeman ever did.

All this posturing is to confuse the lawyers before the lawsuits start flying around. Nobody surely seriously believes that there will be any more football this season. Typical vacillation in this country that has already cost far too many lives. Make a bloody decision will you and put an end to it!

Hope he is familiar with the lockdown rules about not visiting second homes or third homes or fourth homes or ......

At least the equal best manager we've had. Thank Reed for us losing him. Who will forget those two wonderful seasons when we seemed to score for fun and could attract world class players because of RK's reputation in the game. Thanks for all the great days Ronald and please get better soon.

He lives at Bucklers Hard surely.

These are untimely additional deaths. Most people very sensibly accept the reasoning behind the lockdown without question, which is why HMG made it 'advisory' rather than Law.

Why do so many people seem to regard the lockdown as an imposition when it's whole purpose is to shield people of all ages from Covid-19 and save lives and not just the lives of "fat, old people" as one of our more articulate intellectual contributors has suggested. People of all age groups are dying and not just people with underlying health conditions. The virus is a killer as we see every single day in the simply appalling death figures even with the lockdown. Every death is an untimely, horrific and lonely experience for those affected. Lockdown is not a game, without it the situation in the UK would be catastrophic. Talk of "getting back to normal" is premature, motivated as always by money. Talk of the resumption of PL football is a frivolous, unprincipled and selfish distraction from this grim new reality. Resolve and patience is needed until scientists find solutions that work effectively to reduce the lethality of this virus to the status of being just another illness that can be treated by GPs. People should not be fretting over the completion of this season, it isn't going to happen. There is not even a serious prospect of next season starting in 2020 either.

He looks ugly!

Sounds like most of our players over the last 20 years. Otherwise JWP?

Black; Ramsey - Rochford; Smith - Webber - Mallett; Day - Curtis - Wayman - Bates - Wrigglesworth What a team that was. Walked Division 2 in '49.... not End of story sadly. Great work FF

Unsurprisingly I looked up my "own" history first!

Isn't that self evident anyway. Even in the most optimistic of forecasts it'll be the middle of 2021 at least before a vaccine is available and in sufficient quantity for enough people in the over 70 age groups to be vaccinated. Even that assumes that the current research discovers an effective vaccine. Govt propaganda at the start of the Great War was to spread the belief that "it will all be over by Christmas", to keep people's morale high and to encourage enough idiots to volunteer for active service. Right now it is best to assume that HMG's propaganda on vaccine research will be publicised for exactly the same reasons. No right thinking over-70 - and there are 8.8 million of them - is going to venture outside unless or until an effective vaccine does emerge, so the idea that self isolation will be an imposition is wrong. Many in that group will feel that it is there only hope of staying alive long enough to see it through.

Sadly it isn't quite that simple. Millions of people in this country can barely afford to put food on the table for their families and were it not for food banks and the kindness of donors we would have people starving to death in the world's 6th largest economy. Any increase in costs of food production will heap more misery on more and more people.

That is not a policy 'though, it is called serendipity. Some might call it sitting on the fence for fear of making any sort of decision.

Whereas I love the bloke. It's the sanctimonious BBC lot that get right up my jacksie!

Thi avoids the Times and heir bloody paywall.. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52274265

...or indeed mathematics!

Yeah but glass half full and all that. As Lighthouse said we haven't lost a game since which is remarkable really.

...and he had been doing so well. Cracks beginning to show now. Somebody on high has obviously asked him "Why is this still an issue, Hancock" One can surmise that Mr Hancock had thought that each person only needed one set of PPE. !!!!!!!!!

There is also a huge amount of research into medicines that can reduce the severity of the symptoms or even cure patients who have contracted the virus. It is a two pronged effort. Prevention is better than a cure (as they say) but there is no life long immunity with flu vaccines and many thousands die each year from that. A new flu vaccine is developed each year.

I am certainly not a special case so hopefully 'yes' unless it is people of a certain age

The Club phoned me yesterday to check that we were Ok and offering any help they could during this crises. A wonderful gesture that we appreciate very much. That is the sort of community spirit that once marked this club out and it is good to know that it has not been completely forgotten in this cynical.moneyed age. Thank you SFC.

That is terrible news, you must be going through hell. Stay strong. I am sure many on here will join me in praying for your Mum's full recovery.
