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

[Lastfootstamper]

Manchester City "disappointed" that Benjamin Mendy held a small NYE party. Some friends of the partner and a chef, it says.

"And will Lamela or Lo Celso get the Jack treatment in the media?"

 an excellent question.  If the cancelling team or their players have been reckless why should another club be made to suffer?

Agree, they either field a team or give up the points.

I’m sure P**** M***** will give them the same treatment on national morning television as he did with Jack.

Did I hear that right?  The football has been stopped  again?

No. ‘Elite’ sport continues.

So Blues have to stop?

Sky said it would have to stop and then later corrected themselves. It's caused a fair bit of confusion.

Best comment of the night

[Behind Bluenose Lines]

Now several Derby players are Covid positive. Could affect the FA cup this season, if we manage to beat Liverpool, if other EFL clubs affected. They don't have the safety protocols that the Premier league has.

Expect a few byes in the next round.

They should just cancel the FA Cup this season.

They should just cancel the FA Cup this season.

Eh? Why ?

[Steve67]

Perhaps they should call a halt with all top level football for a month or so, get the vaccines sorted and then start again in February? We are then a month closer to bringing the fans back too.

There is no way the fixture are being completed if there’s another break.  There simply isn’t the room in the calendar.  We need it to finish as it helps my state of mind, it will send the Albion down, it might send the blues down and we might get in the top four.

[andyh]

Precisely.
It will ‘boost the morale of the country’ no end if the rags and the boggies get relegated.
