But we have also seen the completion of the Champions League last season and it seems to be going alright this time.

There are ways these bigger competitions can take place. I think the fact that Euro 2020(/1) is taking place in multiple countries might end up being an advantage. Hopefully certain groups can stay in one area and the actually mixing of players/support staff can be kept to a minimum during the group stages. Knock outs will be more complex, but more and more teams will be being eliminated so the risk will be theoretically less.

Edit: what the fuck do I know.

Yep, utter madness that. All this ‘the show must go on’ mentality has got to stop but I won’t hold my breath.

The Olympics without spectators would be weird. Football is weird without the fans too.

I’m sure this will be over before then

edit - ah you mean the tokyo olympics

The Dewies are taking place right now:

Sky Brown getting tubular!

Sky needs to start flipping mctwists on the regs if she wants that gold.

Meanwhile…

3% vaccinated? Wtf Japan.

I don’t believe that statistic.
Insider info via the Mrs - Japan has private healthcare insurance and apparently there’s an issue with GP’s and patients aligning which means there’s a huge disconnect between the populace and those allowed to administer the vaccine,
In Japan, the public would not accept receiving a vaccine this important from anyone other than their Dr and it’s apparently difficult to work out who your doctor is.
Confusing but hey, that’s Japan.
200 years in the future but 50 years in the past at the same time.

You’d think Japan would want to boast about how many people they’d done.

Might be of interest to some… Join myself, Daz, Chris Lawton and Neil Ellis.

Men’s live now…

Des Moines has been so rainy. Weird choice to stage it there.
