Given Greg Clarke rhetoric, looks like another LUFC chant may be in the making. Not WACCOE but WACCOC. We are Champions, Champions of the Championship 💛💙.

Meanwhile while football and other outdoor sporting events ( yet not the Cheltenham horse Gold Cup Festival or rugby league fixtures ) are postponed ; the hypocracy continues by the UK authorities on not banning far more likely contagious activities of travelling by tube, underground, crammed with thousands or plane travel in enclosed tiny spaces with hundreds of others. and of course all the pubs will be crammed now with footie fans on the weekends with nothing to do .
Compared to many other illnesses this Corona virus accounts for far less mortality that receive no attention or media hype / panic .
The whole Coruna virus matter is overhyped needless panicking bull

Mainstream media reporting covid19 more contagious and higher mortality rate than those others but not as many people have it yet. I agree in principle with that vid but the knock on effect to the economy would be disastrous if everything just shuts down.

Absolutely Alf, the economic toll could be huge. Jobs will be lost by the 1000s, businesses will fail on a daily basis, so aside from the worrying health elements, the economic fallout will take a long time to recover from. Why public transport is still in use is beyond me.

Without transport people wouldn't be able to get to work though and that includes the supply chain to get food to the masses. Without PT some would not be able to earn money to feed their families. It's a huge mess. Better to keep it running, advise people to avoid it and work from home if we can and muddle through but our government haven't done that for some reason. Maybe they want us to all get it and get it over with?

Alf - you may not be very far from the truth with your final comment, if as suggested the Govt's Chief Scientific Officer thinks it would be good for 60% of the population to get Covid-19 and recover, to establish 'herd immunity' within this country.
