Spike Posted March 31, 2020 Posted March 31, 2020 Risky, if one player gets infected the entire league is compromised.

I was reading something along those lines about players concerns over here, given that some players of clubs have been in contact with players/staff that have it people would be right to be cautious.. I am assuming that players would all be checked before any games went ahead??

Remember it has a relatively long gestation period.

Remember it has a relatively long gestation period. They'll be testing everyone regularly. Certainly before any game. The question is will the testing pick up a carrier?

It´s not officiall yet, I´m sure they´ll be monitoring the situation in the next month to see how it develops and make the final decision then. DFL said they will be working with medical and other experts in order to find the ways to involve as little people as possible (limited staff etc) and minimize the risks. I don´t think it´ll work out.

Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted March 31, 2020 Subscriber Posted March 31, 2020 Can't see it happening as it's too much of a risk. Feels like they're just saying it to keep everyone going and give hope.

It´s more about them looking desperately for a way to resume the season as if it´s canceled then the losses will be over 750 million for the league. Smaller clubs might struggle to survive so I think this is more about the money and survival than anything else...

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted March 31, 2020 Subscriber Posted March 31, 2020 Again, I can't see how any responsible government would allow this unless the whole country is well on its way to coming out of "lockdown" measures. This seems unlikely given that cases and fatalities are still rising throughout most of Europe. The governing bodies and football clubs can agree to it as much as they want, and things may work different in Germany, but to me this just seems like another irresponsible, money-comes-first pipe dream like the Premier League's alleged plans that were reported yesterday.

I think alot of the major sports leagues are trying to make deadlines like this with the caveat that its a soft deadline as naturally everything is fluid at the moment still. This has the feeling like its going to be a long while before we're in the clear for returning to semi normal life let along sports.
SchalkeUK Posted March 31, 2020 Posted March 31, 2020 Brilliant! I know it may not happen, but we have 8 weeks to watch the situation go up or, hopefully, down but with something positive to look forward to - if it doesn't happen they have, at least, tried. It will also be nice to watch a game without anyone spitting on the pitch
