If that’s real then Brancos free-kick maybe did more damage than we initially thought.... Awful! I got more out him in the 2 mins we spent queueing for a pie the last time I was at the Rock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paying ~20% of the wage bill would seem the right thing to do if we can afford it rather than have people taking a wage cut. Another issue is what happens to those players when who's contract with us expires with us in June, will we be allowed renew their contracts or will the government say that's not allowed? In such a scenario we could lose players to other clubs (though only if they can afford to also). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jilted John Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 At long last an FA thats actually showing a pair if gonads and making a decision,whether its right or wrong whilst our blazers drag their heels.Agreed. There’s no way this season will be completed. Not without severely impacting on next season, which just creates a domino effect. Call this season off now and use the next week or two to decide how best to resolve the obvious issues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Just go on current standings and give us the trophy. It’s the only sensible way to finish it. Then cross your fingers that next season isn’t too badly affected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 At long last an FA thats actually showing a pair if gonads and making a decision,whether its right or wrong whilst our blazers drag their heels.There is one game left in the regular season and Club Brugge were 15 points clear. They've also not made a decision on European spaces or relegation. You're comparing apples and oranges.Agreed. There’s no way this season will be completed. Not without severely impacting on next season, which just creates a domino effect. Call this season off now and use the next week or two to decide how best to resolve the obvious issues.Why not? This season can run late, there is no reason to start the next season in its usual place. Teams could play each other twice, there could be expanded play offs, the League Cup and Challenge Cup could be suspended for a year or the League Cup could go back to full knock out, the Scottish Cup could not have replays for a season... there are ways of fitting in next season in a truncated way, and if player contracts can be automatically extended for 6 months or some other workable solution can be found then there's no reason to not see if we can get this current season finished. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the Euros next year is as good a reason as any to start next season as close to normal as possible? Especially if Scotland qualify. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still another 10 games to go for the Jupiler Pro League Championship playoffs though so Club Brugge still weren't mathematically winners. It's like saying Celtic are 13 points clear with 3 games to go but in reality they have 8 games to play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 If it continues to drag on that long then surely a decision will have been taken on league placings and prize monies paid out by that stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank conner Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I know I'll get some smart arse responses but how did clubs survive during WW2 it's the same situation where everyone is in the same boat if it sadly means joblosses then so be it .No one will be signing players and with clubs being on lockdown the running costs should be quite low. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
