    If a player heads the ball and puts a deadly covid on it, and then a vulnerable player heads it back and contracts the deadly covid and dies or worse, how many years should Bill Gates get in prison?
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    Twice as many as he should get had the ball not been headed at all.

    Seems fair, they had a big lead.

    Time to end the PL in the only fair way, N&V.

    Favourite is a resolution called Weighted Points Per Game. The league will take each club's home and away record separately, and work out both average points totals. It will then multiply those numbers by the respective games left, home and away. This will give them a projected end of season total and league positions will be decided by that.
    So while Brighton, Bournemouth, Watford, West Ham and Norwich went to Anfield, lost - in some cases by the margin of a single goal - and came away with nothing, Villa will lose, because Liverpool get the maximum three points, but still come out with 0.53 points. It's a 3.53-point game.

    What a terrible shame for all those other clubs who visited Anfield with just three points on the table. West Ham, who only succumbed to an 81st-minute winner; Brighton and Bournemouth, who suffered narrow 2-1 defeats.

    A 3.53-point game could really make a difference to their final standing in this imaginary league with very real consequences; particularly as, when Brighton travel to Norwich, they will only be splitting 1.8 points, less than the minimum gleaned from a real game.
    Trust the PL to come up with the worst possible solution. Forget it now and just go with N&V before they come up with something even crazier. Season's gone. Tough on Liverpool but we haven't seen a game in months. It's over.

    Or, they've always had the option to put 22 young, supremely fir and healthy individuals in a big open space where, as verified by hard data, there will far less risk of harm from a virus than any of the usual risks encountered on a professional football pitch. But if they won't take the obvious path, or can't because of lawyers and other grubby individuals, then shut it down.

    Well hang on now. Would their solution put Arsenal above Spurs?

    No, we get relegated on the Xhaka rule.

    Manager Neil Lennon says leading Celtic to their ninth title in a row is his best achievement in football
    Yeah. With all the fierce competition up there it's a real achievement.

    The ninth was the best for him apparently. Nothing better than being gifted a title you never won.

    Also. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52704448

    Oh dear.
