Will be a convenient break for a faltering RS side, same as covid

Not really as they still have to play Champions League games

You don't think they...
Surely not...

If we don't play until Oct 1, then that is absolutely a blessing.

DCL, Pickford and Doucoure all back, plus extra opportunities for Gana, Garner and Onana to get fully fit.

I have a feeling they're going to play. There'll be a lot of pressure from NBC and other international broadcasters, and if the games are postponed the league would possibly have to give refunds. The fact that there's been no official notice suggests that, at the very least, it has not yet been decided.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Pickford and Doucoure all back, plus extra opportunities for Gana, Garner and Onana to get fully fit.

That kind of talk would be likely to get you transported to one of our many colonies if you was English. Postponing sporting event's isn't surprising really.

Agree for the first 3 , but Garner , Onana & Gana are fully fit but lack match fitness.
Swings & roundabouts really.

Edit
Same for Maupay too.

Honestly, it seems like that would be of a much bigger benefit to us than a lot of other teams. Playing less matches without DCL, Pickford and maybe Mina would be great for us, and not having to play one of our toughest fixtures in the very next one after we are finally putting together a squad may be the boost the team needs.

Plenty of room for you all Down Under!

Weren’t they like 20 points clear at the top?

Way too many deadly critters for my liking!!!

Having to shut down the country to mourn is probably the strongest argument yet about how dumb a monarch is

 

[Lobster Johnson]

Ya and we won't be sharp or match fit ...which we only just started to look in our last game

But every other team will be?

The queen popping her cloggs, is this Lampards brock moment ?
