Coronavirus and Football

[Zidane98]

If anything he'd want the game to return to give him a fighting chance to impress the new owners before they take over

Not really. Imagine the Saudis would be most displeased if he got them relegated and would want his head on a platter. Not gettong relegated is ideal for Brucey.

Well fu** knows what you lot are talking about if you’ve not even mentioned the source of the outbreak and frankly China’s whole role in this. Mind you come to think of it I’ve seen some clips on YT of sky news Australian talking about it so you’re probably talking shit again.

Yes I'm talking shit.

Or I don't watch Sky news as I don't have cable news.

I just went to the BBC homepage and saw no headline articles about what you're claiming so no idea what you're talking about.

Lower the aggression levels.

Says the most passive aggressive person on the board. Anyway not really aggression although as I do admittedly find you pretty much the most lamentable person ever our exchanges are never going to be positive ones are they. Don’t let a bit of straight talking offend you though

Have a good day mate. My mistake for sticking up for someone you were sinking the boot into.

They're pretty safe 8 points above relegation. Would be an almighty **** up to go down from where they are

Were there public health failures and under reporting of cases in China? Probably, as there were in many countries, including the US.

Landmark study: Virus didn't come from animals in Wuhan market

Caveat that it still needs to be peer reviewed, but an interesting study. I’m not sure it proves what you think it proves regarding China’s culpability for the impact of the pandemic around the world though. The novel piece of evidence the authors introduce is that SARS-CoV-2 was already adapted to human transmission among cases detected at the Huanan market, but they point to “a lack of definitive evidence to verify or rule out that adaptation occurred in an intermediate host species, humans, or a laboratory”, and call for further investigation. All of these have been considered by the scientific community as plausible scenarios for the origins of the pandemic, some more likely than others.

Who am I kidding, you just read the headline didn’t you?

 

[Zidane98]

Literally being paid to win? I didn't realise footballers had to win a game to get paid.

I think you must be the only person I’ve come across willing to defend China. Even if it turns out the virus wasn’t created in a lab, most people recognise the wet markets to be filthy places that were/are a breeding ground for something like this to happen. It’s not the first time it’s happened and it’s unlikely to be the last as things stand.

Anyway you keep on defending China, you clearly have great admiration for the regime. After all how could you not admire such openness and honesty, they are truly a beacon for democracy right?

Do you actually know what a wet market is? Most of them are actually reasonably hygienic. It's not all wet markets that are the issue.

Yes I know what a wet market is you utter spoon. And no they are not an issue at all. I mean I must have imagined all those pictures of caged animals piled on top and in too close proximity of each other. I must have also imagined the recent SARS outbreak that originated in a wet market too.

I did say some were an issue. No need for the personal insults.

So you had no real point, you just wanted to try and get on someone’s **** like you do any other day. Stop acting like such a blow-hard and I won’t have to use nasty words like spoon when I address you

 

[Cruyff14]

I found spoon to be funny. Never heard someone be called a spoon before.

Is it worse than being called a fork? Or a knife? What about a spork?

As a sidenote, Trump’s total hashup of this entire COVID19 in the USA is likely to cost any chance of America hosting the 2022 World Cup (which has been implied a few months ago)

It will still go ahead in Qatar or possibly pushed back a year like The Olympics (in the worst case scenario)

Qatat 2022 is in November so likely to be unaffected by COVID.

US/Canada/Mexico are hosting 2026.

The irony is that's what you were doing to ADL, trying to speak down to him about something you don't seem fully informed about.

Especially as your main point to him seemed to be that the virus didn't originate in wet markets, which kind of clashes with your argument that the wet markets are filthy places that bred the disease. Kind of trying to cover both bases while still asserting how much smarter you are than ADL, when all he's said is basically the same thing - the jury's out. Kinda the same thing I suggested last night when I said China is at fault for the incubation of the disease.

But score your laugh reacts from Fila with your put downs all you want.

It's silly. I wasn't offended by it, but he's clearly quite worked up, should learn to engage without the need for such emotive language.

So I read this morning that Australia have called for an independent inquiry into the origins of the Covid pandemic. And yet a little birdie on here was only just telling me there was no news or speculation coming out of Oz as regards to how the whole thing came about. China obviously not happy.

“It doesn't mention China, but Australia's push for the inquiry has angered Beijing, which has threatened a huge tariff on barley and blocked some beef imports.“

Coalition of 116 countries back Australia's push for independent coronavirus inquiry

A group of 54 African nations has joined Australia's push for an inquiry into coronavirus, taking the total number of countries on board to 116.
