If the season is null & void do Bury FC get to re-form and reinstated?

Will we have to take Silva back?

The biggest difference is the money. Now winding up the season means a ton of people losing a ton of money and that changes how it is handled.

The difference??? They did not have a lockdown

This is unquestionably true.

Just this morning @peteblue pushed a small girl in a wheelchair in front of the delivery van in order to protect his stocks and then for no good reason except he said she looked poor he rubbed clotted cream in her eyes.

This is true, I was there.

It's a moot point just like now, football back then suspended because of the wars, it was more important to fight fascism. Though it never gets brought up in the media. Even when it was, only a week or so ago, they talked about Blackpool who were leading in 39/40 after 3 games. They don't ever mention that Everton had not one but two title winning teams disrupted due to the two world wars. We too had to suffer our mid-eighties team break up when we would have dominated and won the European Cup.

The world wars were not about fighting fascism, certainly not for the people in charge

Has anyone suggested nuking the virus or the country 'Corona' yet?

I bet someone somewhere has. Far be it from me to suggest America, like.

I don't think the world could take too many more of these incidents, so down the track, if all this popped up again in 'a town' in 'a country' given the global out come (don't underestimate loss of face either) there's an outside chance of drastic internal cauterisation.

I read the first line and immediately thought George Bush/Trump but you were waaaaay ahead!
