Bournemouth only make about 6% of their income from match day income (including hospitality). As long as they remain in the Premier League they don't need fans 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the likes of England are going being closed doors in June will UEFA accept we can’t get going till September despite what sturgeon says . Also if sturgeon says can’t have football behind closed doors , where does that leave us with UEFA . I suppose netherlands are in a similar position Big bad Nicola really has you raging. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a start I think we should be taking our advice from Sturgeon on what's best for our country and people and not effin UEFA who are only concerned about the "big five" and their TV dosh. 2. Austria and Germany have handled this virus considerably better than the UK. The UK has 3 times the amount of deaths than these 2 countries have combined 3. f**k the EPL. They dont need fans coming through the gates to survive. Edited April 22, 2020 by Bohemian 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with the vast majority , however no one really knows what qualifies as a special case anyway with UEFAIf football is closed according to sturgeon , that doesn’t mean UEFA will accept that, we could be asked to play games in neighbouring countries for example 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DAVIDB69 Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 UEFA have no jurisdiction here. The are a private body dealing with private companies. As there is currently a travel ban within the UK UEFA can make any declarations they want but they are totally meaningless. CAS would throw out any punishment UEFA decided to throw at a club adhering to the laws of the land. I was thinking mainly in the sense of European ties as there seems to be plans of finishing this seasons Europe in August and starting next seasons in August as well. So if that is the case and we get to August , we would be giving options of how to play the early ties or being withdrawn from them , if the government insists on no to even any closed door games at that point. The same as war areas when they cannot play games on their own territory I would astonished if we had a uk travel ban in August still. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
