I have some odd memory of that but it might have happened in a dream - I need to lay off the HC. Yeah they did, don't remember the details but they absolutely did start a game past midnight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan4Life Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-8336559/Six-Premier-League-players-three-different-clubs-record-POSITIVE-coronavirus-tests.html Quote Six Premier League players and members of staff from three clubs have recorded positive coronavirus tests after the first wave were carried out within the top-flight this week. The Covid-19 tests were conducted on Sunday and Monday and are due to take place twice a week from now on. Forty tests will be carried out at each club in each training session. The results come from the tests of 19 Premier League clubs, with one club testing on Tuesday. Those results will be included in the data from the second round of testing, which is due to be published on Saturday. A Premier League statement read: 'The Premier League can today confirm that, on Sunday 17 May and Monday 18 May, 748 players and club staff were tested for COVID-19. 'Of these, six have tested positive from three clubs. Players or club staff who have tested positive will now self-isolate for a period of seven days.' Those results mean only 0.8 per cent of the tests carried out were positive in a boost to the Premier League's plans to get up and running. The number of positive tests and number of clubs affected are being made public but the names of individuals and clubs will be kept private by the Premier League. The Premier League has joined forces with the global health company that has been working with the Bundesliga to deliver testing. The test itself involves a swab and a nasal sample that only goes around a centimetre up the nostril and is far less invasive than other tests that are used across the globe. Clubs are now making tentative steps towards resuming the season. The return to training involves small groups of up to five players working together, while practising social distancing, with sessions to last no more than 75 minutes for any one player. It comes after Premier League clubs unanimously agreed the protocols for small group training to resume on Monday and they will gather again on May 26 to discuss protocols for contact training. June 12 has been mentioned as a resumption date, but the league's chief executive Richard Masters has said that was only ever to be treated as a 'staging post'. Premier League clubs will be subjected to rigorous checks to ensure they are complying with training protocols, while the league has also committed to making every positive Covid-19 test public knowledge.

PaulC Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 19 hours ago, Genie said: Despite it being 9th in row, and mid-pandemic Celtic fans have still defied pleas not to stay home by celebrating outside the stadium. It would be 1000x worse if/when Liverpool are crown champions. Only a few fans defied it and Celtic have a massive fans base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Only a few fans defied it outside the ground... They're a special kind of idiot How many more had a beer last night round their local for a lock in or will have a bbq this weekend to celebrate? And that's without balls being kicked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take the title off them the riots will be worse than the celebrations and if they win the title on the field in say 6 weeks time, the infection rate should be much lower hopefully.

Everton fans still mad about not playing in the European Cup when they had a great team in the 80s because Liverpool got us all kicked out of Europe because of Heysel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I mean just wiping the results so far, as if they never played games at all and starting over on time in August behind closed doors until fans are given the clear. In America, MLS has been given the green light to begin training, but only if the players get pre match bleach injections. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you're saying, but PL will push hard to what they want, So basically Villa shall be the last club to ask for cancelling the season. It should come from others.

Demitri_C Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 If i was a plop fan i wouldnt be that bothered if the season was voided.
