0wl18 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 If they get it right, Newcastle could easily find themselves as perennial title challengers. Pleased for the Geordies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trev Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Allegri to be the Newcastle manager. I'd have Bruce back tbh. His signings were very good and he is clearly a good manager. I don't hold a grudge against a manager leaving for bigger n better. That's the aim of the game in life. I'd certainly be more confident with Bruce here than Monk.

If squads get tested & the all clear, what's to stop them? The horse racing authorities are considering the same. Racing with no spectators but on tv. This would also open up the gambling industry, without having to open betting shops. I know it's not a priority, but it's some form of entertainment because when the weather turns, it's going to be far more tedious under lockdown. Getting some sport on tv will help.

I think they are desperate now, most leagues ending the season and they are trying to do anything to grab that last couple of quid. Just end the season.

Just end the season. Maybe. Story has now appeared on bbc website & uefa talking about finishing their cup tournaments in August after domestic leagues are over. I think they’re pretty determined to see them out MDB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why cant you then open up betting shops, restaurants and pubs, most would have less people in them would a football ground with players, officials, paramedics and TV crews, can see other industries asking why football and not them Testing is only as good as the time it is done, anyone involved could test positive before the next match, then everyone involved in the last match would be isolating, therefore no players If it happens this will be done for the benefit of the TV money and not for the benefit or care of anyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
