Sees the return leg of the most one-sided local derby in world football. Live on Sky so Charlton can unveil their 7th new owner of the season.
You're just getting lairy because you know we won't have Lyle Taylor so our attack may be a bit blunt. Why would you expect to win otherwise?
Don't push it Mr Spanner, nail in coffin for relegation perhaps, but finishing bottom is not happening and you know it.
There should only be two reasons why people break the social distancing rules; Saving a patient's life or caring for a vulnerable person. And in both cases the safety of the medic or carer should be assured by their use of appropriate PPE. Breaking the safety rules for entertainment, as guinea pigs or playthings of the Elite in order to keep their snouts in the trough holds no interest to me whatsoever. It is morally wrong (quite apart from actually being illegal) and it trivialises a deadly disease, as well as the efforts and sacrifices of everybody who has done their duty at personal cost in order to fight it. A minute's silence for those who have died from COVID19 before each of these 'games' is an insult, not a tribute. There are thousands of other forms of safe entertainment available in this day and age. How can the Government expect people to follow its increasingly compromised lockdown rules and not gather for protests, while supporting an entire industry that is about to flout the rules live on television pretty much every day, in pursuit of profit. Black lives matter. Footballers' lives matter. Everybody's life matters. Even Elite lives matter - despite them putting the lives of others second to making money and preserving their own privilege. PS: I do appreciate this thread is only meant to be a bit of harmless banter. I won't launch into any more sermons on it. But I'm really not interested in the result of this game, or any of the others between now and the end of the 2019-20 Championship season. Even if Charlton somehow beat Millwall it will mean nothing at all to me me under these circumstances. Neither will relegation or 2nd tier survival for Charlton, decided by this method. I do care whether CAFC stays in the Championship or not, but I can't accept that it's going to be decided in this manner, putting lives at risk when there are other ways. This season should have been declared void and all results expunged. But if that isn't going to happen I would rather it be declared finished now and table places decided on a points-per-game basis - even if that means Charlton are relegated. Every point won from here on is gained at the price of risking the lives of footballers and their families.
