TBF Deeney has a baby with breathing difficulties, so I can see his concern about being exposed.


So do plenty of us mortals who haven’t got the luxury of being tested twice a week and aren’t multi millionaires and who get their behinds sacked if they refused to work.

Like Jim said above, if you don’t feel it’s safe to play then don’t. But don’t moan if others do and want to get this finished. I’m sure he’ll get his thousands a week regardless.


Yes obviously Deeney is a special case with his new born that has difficulties that's understandable. But like Wilks says he's a completely free man to give up his job as a footballer if he wishes, he does have that luxury unlike most of us.


Just because he is paid allot doesn't mean he cannot be concerned if he has a vulnerable member of his family, like anyone who has a vulnerable member of family ATM.

He has a choice like you say, when it comes to the crunch, will he not goto work and not get paid, as you say, at least he has that choice unlike most people who couldn't afford to give up their job.

I don't think Deeney has done anything wrong. He has just said he won't be going in for training. I assume that he won't be playing. Nothing wrong with that. He has the money so it is not a problem. He is from the wrong background for this virus and he is near London. So I don't blame him.

He is fortunate that his trade pays more per week than most of us earn in a year. I would have done the same in his position. If his club is a division lower next season so be it. No different than had he been injured. His club will stick by him, he will play next season and probably earn as much. I doubt if I have much choice when I go back in two weeks.

I expect that he is doing the right thing and staying at home 24/7. I have more time for him though than the likes of Kyle Walker and a few others who have spectacularly tried to bring the sport down and have given players like Deeney a very valid reason to not be out there.

Only a few have come out against restarting so the best thing to do is respect their decision and deem them unavailable for the rest of the season, the majority want to return, get these tests done and restart.

Yeah, treat them like they are injured and unavailable, it is upto their club to deal with them after discussing the circumstances.

The players will be fully monitored by doctors using the latest testing and everything done/provided for them like Isolated hotels/transport/food etc, they will be much safer than the rest of us who will not get anything like that, if we can return to work, they can under those circumstances.

It seems to have gone well in Germany, so I think the PL will follow.

Well there aren't many woods left in the world, and even fewer bears, so little inspiration to be found there I'm afraid! As for this current pope being a catholic? I'd venture towards the negative, considering where the church is now compared to where it was in my youth; purgatory is gone, limbo is gone, and even hell's fire has considerably cooled, thankfully. Then there's the silence of the lambs around all the current social issues, they're even harbouring notions of marriage, even the unmixed gender version. "Is the pope Catholic?" I have little doubt all 'em Legion of Mary ould-wans I knew in my youth would give that question short shrift, with emphasis very much on the negative, I suspect!

2nd Round of test results expected on Saturday for project restart. Approx' 50 players/staff tested from each club, per week so they can analyze the data to see if they can resume contact training.

I expect there to be more players/staff from PL relegation threatened clubs to test positive in the 2nd round testing for the ChiComm Virus. There is just too much money in the sport for those clubs and their staff/players to not try and invalidate the season and remain in the top tier.

Well we know Queen Elton's tongue has been to many far fetched places...and Troy Deeney (judging by his rants) got a head start a few weeks ago in the relegation threatened licking Olympics!
