    Football can do one.

    Not much I am missing truth be told.

    The only thing I miss is seeing people tbf. Whether at work, family or mates. I’d be a shit castaway.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    A group of us at work have set up a couple of "coffee break" meetings a day on Teams so we can catch up.
    And have a had a couple of video chats with friends over the last week.
    Stuff like that is really important.
    At least we have the technology to do that now.

    Yeah, we used Zoom last night for a churchy group. Worked well.
    I think they've relaxed the 40 minute rule while all this is going on which is jolly decent of them, we were certainly able to go on longer than that last night.

    if they've any business sense they'll do exactly that and when this is over everyone won't be able to cope without it and be signing up in their thousands - is it possible to buy shares in these guys...? (and i see there's no 'money' emoji either...)

    Try using words...

    I've been thinking it would probably be a good idea to buy some shares at some point although now is not the time.
    And I don't have much spare money floating around right now.
    We had decent savings last year, then we got a car so now we don't. So if this all goes tits up and we lose our house I'm blaming MrsL as that was her idea.

People have lost their jobs and won't be getting them back. They don't get a re-run. Companies have gone bust. Pensions have collapsed. Our civil liberties have been suspended. They MIGHT come back, maybe. So tough luck Bournemouth, Villa and Norwich, shit happens - sometimes massive, uncontrollable shit that sprays over everything. At least they get to live with it, rather than die from it. Won't they get a ton of cash because they failed? Top scorers get the golden boot. Statistics are entered into the record books with a little asterisk beside them to designate a shortened season.

    Just call it and end it. Liverpool won it easily, the only reason that's disputed is for the comedic purpose of watching Scousers moan more than usual. The bottom three are no loss and won't even make a loss. The FA Cup isn't worth shit to begin with. And it's funny that the greedy UEFA has missed out on the profits from its blatant exploitation of the game.

    There's no way this thing starts again. There's no way it would even be legitimate if it did, with half the players possibly suffering from Coronavirus. What's happened so far did so fair and square so call it. I don't even get what the complications are. And if the lawyers turn up for even more cash on top of what shitty, third rate teams already get then tell them to piss off. If the government can pas a law telling us we can't leave our houses then they should have no issues with knocking up a quick GTFO message to the three shittiest teams in each league.

    Get it done!

    Technically speaking, this is the last year of the last decade.
