“ So how much of an impact will this have on playing out the season?”
Very little.
“ With the PL meeting on Monday to discuss the future will this play into the hands of making this season nil and void or ppg?”
No.
“ The fact the 3 players from the same team when self isolating have caught the virus shows how easy it is for people to get it. How many more players from other teams already have it but yet to be tested?”
The government guidelines are there to be followed. For a player to catch it either themselves or someone in their family hasn’t abided by them fully.
Those players should be banned from the training ground until they are cleared to continue. Similar to them catching the flu or eating a dodgy lasagne.
Does it confirm how easy it is to get it though?
It only takes one idiot to put others at risk. Augers recent comment's proved to me that he had next to no real idea what Covid entailed. I've no doubt some are uber cautious and others, like those caught in the papers, are the opposite.
I just watched a huge UFC event last night so athletes can quarantine effectively.

If the government do put a 14 day quarantine period for those entering the Country could certainly delay any start to the league.

To be fair even if no one has left the house and had food delivered it could be on the packaging.
Thats the problem with any virus you can't see it.
This is how the meeting should go:
‘The league is cancelled in the interests of safety. Thanks for coming’
How can anyone contemplate restarting the league?
People have to go out to get food/groceries. Not everyone can get deliveries, what you have delivered my be carrying the virus from someone in that supply chain.
Just takes one, then the death of a player, a club asset. Who covers that?
What if half the team from training pick it up, infect the opposition?
The official or worse, the medical team?
The question is, will Souness still blame pogba?

Too many lawsuits i feel to carry that out.

That’s just not true, they could catch it at the supermarket or picking up a medicinal supplies. I mean isn’t it obvious, sorry but coming to the conclusion that anyone that catches it must not have been abiding by the rules is just against common sense.
I wonder if all involved,the players,management,coaches etc would have to sign some sort of insurance waiver before a ball is kicked.
I can't see any insurance company covering covid-19 under these circumstances.If they do have to sign a waiver then I expect that's where it will hit home and many could refuse.

What do all the people working now do ?

All football clubs insure their assets,namely their players.Do you really think resuming football during a pandemic would be insurable? if it's not then I assume footballers will be advised and would have to sign a waiver agreeing to it.
Good luck with that

Yeah they were super vigilant with testing and safety precautions. They pulled a fighter 1 day before the event for testing positive. Event was weird but successful considering the arena was empty.

Same was done for Wrestlemania. Not sure it would work in football, far too many people involved.

Not really the answer to my question. What is happening with German footballers ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Some have caught covid-19 a week before they were due to kick off so it could become a farcical situation very quickly.
Seems that policies are astronomical to cover a pandemic.
"No league has insurance against pandemics," Seifert said. "Leagues have insurance to cover canceled matches and some clubs have tried to insure against a pandemic, but the insurance payments would have been impossibly high."

23 fighters were available for last night. 22 had fights.
Event was way longer than a PL match. Each fighter has staff also. Media/medical presence was there.
Scaled down for sure but it was effective, except when you heard someone's fist crash into someone's head cos there wasn't a crowd lol
so 22 is the equivolent of the starting line up for 1 game.
Premier league has 92 games to go,where there is going to be physical contact between all players over the course of a match,perhaps Ozil being an exception.This is compared to 1 man coming into contact with 1 man.
You can't really compare the 2 sports

You're right. But I'm not comparing them in every way. I'm highlighting last night 4-5 hour plus event was way longer than any PL game, had as many staff, and was successful with no crowds.
My other point was it's hard to sympathise when they are being wrapped in cotton wool and no one else is that fortunate.
Same amount of people with same focus on a media/medical presence but it'd be half the time for a PL game. Nail a similar format or one that works for PL and replicate it. Could even have 2 games at each stadium and players wouldn't be in contact.
I don't buy we can't play football cos of possible human contact when lots of jobs face way more of a threat than coming into contact with 11, fit, healthy, quarantined and tested players. Seems like a huge luxury to most really, that's my point.
