Given the green light but you feel, or O do, this may be the last time we get to see this team. If thats the case i dont think i would have picked the most potent strikeforce in the league.
At thier place it was a typical display, poor start, poor finish and i dont think the middle was much better.
Hopefully we can be buoyed by 2 clean sheets and 2 goals without the main talisman.
One heavy defeat at home and it throws all the good work out of the window. Though if games are played behind close doors it may give Hill a get out of jail free card. But in truth think Tobias Phoenix will still be watching at the side, with his scythe.
Think they have best striker in the league and he will be the thorn in iur side again. 3-1 to them.

This game, assuming it does actually go ahead, will be a good test of whether we really have improved. Certainly the defence will get a real test with the Posh forward line one of the most powerful in the division but I’m not sure their defence is as good. I think since Crawfordcame back it’s really galvanised the team and if Georgiou can give us something extra out wide, you never know. Personally I’d leave the team as it was against Burton. I don’t think Murphy has been that effective lately and Dodoo seems to work harder and has more pace. I’m going for a surprise result and will go for an exciting game and another 2-2 draw.

Boris Johnson's big mistake. Not cancelling all large sporting events, including this one.

Why wots, I think it’s being handled well so far? Only time will tell but although I accept this is serious, I think it’s mainly for people to take responsibility for their own health and take their own precautions. The countries that have taken stricter measures haven’t proved so far that it’s resolving things so at the end of the day it might not change much with the virus but could certainly have serious implications for both their own and the countries financial health. Also, it seems that catching the virus builds up your resistance to it so if you are young enough and fit and well you should be very little affected. Obviously those over 65 like myself need to certainly take precautions and that’s what me and my other half are doing by going out as little as possible and meeting as few people as possible, so I personally won’t be going to the game tomorrow but I don’t think that should stop most people. Time will tell but hopefully they will have come up with an inoculation for it before too long and for next winter at least.

Already one Peterborough player in self isolation. They just played Pompey, who had played Arsenal and Arteta has it. Many players in Europe have it. Makes sense to me to cancel this game and the season.
I'm no doctor, but it makes sense, at least from where I sit, based on what I've read and I'm well sceptic of the dailies.

Agree to cancel the game. The alternative of playing behind closed doors seems a bit like showing a film to an empty cinema. As to canceling the season, perhaps still too early to decide. Give it a couple of weeks. If the season does get cancelled, handling relegation and promotion will be tricky. It is an unusual situation and for sure whatever final decision is taken some teams will be delighted (for avoiding relegation) and others disappointed (for not winning a competition or getting promoted).

Not that I’m knowledgeable in this or anything but this is like a slow and painful death waiting for our relegation All games are OFF now in England so that’s that until April 3rd at the earliest 😬😬

One other thing!
Do we get a credit on our SKY or BT subscriptions as we are being short changed with there being no live TV games!
Bet the Anfield mob wish this ban could have happened at the start of the week rather than now as they’d still be chanting ‘We are the Champions, Champions of Europe’😂😂 they’d still have gotten beat as Athletico have a habit of embarrassing the so called best teams and the Pool have been off the boil for some time now, probably since the winter break.
