How much will Coronavirus (COVID-19) impact Aston Villa's season?

You do all know golf courses are reopening ?



I suggest we play our home games at Little Aston golf club.
Anybody know a pitch & putt south side of the city for SHA ?

There's one in Coventry - they can do a ground share.

Weirdly there is the Wast Hills driving range and pitch and putt right opposite their training ground.

I always liked Stuart Webber. Smart man.

Promotion to the Premier League should be scrapped if Championship clubs fail to complete their season, according to Norwich’s sporting director, Stuart Webber.

Webber says bottom-placed Norwich will not accept a scenario in which they finish the campaign and are relegated, only to be replaced by a club whose season has been curtailed. Leeds and West Brom are in the Championship’s automatic promotion slots.

“What we could not accept is a situation where we play all our games and get relegated but the Championship can’t play and they automatically promote some teams who haven’t finished the season,” Webber told the Sky Sports Football Show.

“For anyone who has got promoted from the Championship, it is a 46- or 49-game slog … It needs to be settled on the pitch – both coming up and going down.”

Too bloody right, especially given Leeds "Champions of August" United and their repeated inability to complete the said task.

There’s been a few times where I’ve totally lost all interest in football (it usually coincides with us being comically shit), but if they do push ahead and try to play out these remaining games I can’t see me being interested in it whatsoever. The recurring talk of “integrity” is laughable.

How can they now restart the Bundesliga now that cases in Germany have started to increase rapidly?

Got told yesterday my job role is up for redundancy so football is last thing I’m concerned about at the minute. Depending what happens I may have to give up my ST anyway and being at football seems miles away at the moment

Intrigued to see what happens post EFL meetings. Seems it will probably all just die out to a damp squib

Sorry to learn that mate. Best wishes at a difficult time.

That is grim news. Sorry to hear that.

Sorry to hear that you are being made redundant - hopefully you will get a new job role quickly.

Government guidelines for return to training make it clear any player living in household with clinically vulnerable people are NOT allowed to take part.
Means some players might not be allowed back even if they want to.
