Administrator Stan 18,383 Posted June 12, 2020 Administrator Share Posted June 12, 2020 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53030146 Quote Premier League players' names will be replaced on the back of their shirts with 'Black Lives Matter' for the first 12 matches of the restarted season. "We, the players, stand together with the singular objective of eradicating racial prejudice wherever it exists," read a statement.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,662 Posted June 13, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted June 13, 2020 What happens when the NHS Track and Trace gets onto this? I'm guessing they can probably test the players involved in the match yesterday pretty quickly and if they're negative then they're good to go? But does that make a mockery of the Test and Trace system or is it okay for footballers to be exceptional? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also heard that the player played against Spurs but those Spurs players don't have to self isolate, just carry on as normal. I find that a bit odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, this is from sky sports: Norwich beat Tottenham 2-1 on Friday, but players from either club who may have come in contact with the player will not have to self-isolate, as they are not deemed to have been in contact for long enough, according to Government advice. Close contact is defined by the Government as being within two metres of someone who is a confirmed case for 15 minutes or more. http://www.skysports.com/share/12006131 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey 3,767 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Turning Norwich and Spurs into a close contact rule experiment. Rules likely written for ordinary encounters, not sports with sweat, spit and touching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Culture 1,651 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 How often are they testing players? Is it just once a week or are there tests taking place the day before/day of games, even these training ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm yeah I've heard, a small logo on the arm that nobody will actually be able to see... a token gesture! BLM however is going to replace players names so will be visible to the watching world. Both are important I agree but should be the opposite way around on the shirt in my opinion. After all, one of them saved hundreds of thousands of lives around the world (and still are), risking their own life during a global pandemic, whilst the other saw peaceful protests mixed with violence, looting, vandalism, assaults, attacks on police officers, attacks on white people and downright disgusting behaviour around the world, whilst totally disregarding social distancing. It just feels like the NHS has been pushed into the background somewhat in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not to say the NHS isn't. They've already done plenty for the NHS during the pandemic with the PlayersTogether initiative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I hope all the disregard for social distancing during these protests don't end up putting even more insurmountable pressure on the hospitals around the world or the NHS workers will once again have to risk their own lives saving all races. Black lives do matter of course, but totally disregarding social distancing is just pure stupidity at a time like this don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's all just fuck it off altogether. In fact let's all go destroy local small businesses, attack shopkeepers, assault police officers, rip down statues, graffiti statues, and attack white people ... because other people are doing it hey?
