GordonS Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 That'll be the Scottish football buggered from Monday, and on Tuesday UEFA will likely pull the plug on their competitions. My next favourite sport is rugby, but the Pro14 is indefinitely suspended. Next would be tennis, that's off until after Madrid, Barcelona and Rome at the earliest. I like a bit of F1 these days, but Melbourne's cancelled, who knows if Bahrain will go ahead and Vietnam looks unlikely. What am I going to watch? Is there another sport I could follow that might survive the zombie apocalypse, or should I watch old matches on YouTube? Genuinely feel a bit bereft without sport to follow. Are others feeling the same? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as there are games to go to then I'll go. Women's games on the Sundays will presumably continue. But there are times I can't get out the house, or there's nothing local, or there are no games on. With the shutdown coming near the end of the football and rugby seasons I feel like I've been reading a really good book and someone's just stolen the last chapter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it is but 1) I know how it ends, whereas every sport is a drama that writes itself and 2) no book has ever made me leap up in the air and yell in ecstasy or frustration. Nothing can do what live sport does. BTW I'd be just as frustrated if someone said I couldn't read a book for 6 weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 My missus has already asked me how many seasons of Football Manager I think I'll get in when we all go on lockdown. She knows me so well. The answer "four less than I should because you keep moaning at me to do some chores" was not right answer it seems 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ro Sham Bo Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I was hoping the golf would go ahead, albeit without any crowds. Time for Netflix and Amazon Prime to start earning their money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FA are allowing women's football to continue so I can't see the thinking. You're massively more likely to catch Covid-19 in a pub that at a football game with a crowd of 50.Maybe I'll see if I can find all the World Cup finals on YouTube or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
