    The training is going to be a can of worms and even the escalated testing doesn’t seem to be allying fears. A full return could well be problematic.

    Germany is the guinea pig, if the Bundesliga clubs start getting cases in the next couple of weeks then I doubt there will be a possibility of a PL restart.

    Add to that the only thing separating Watford's training ground from Woolwich's is a hedge

    It's Arsenal's old training ground. They built another one right next door and sold it to Watford.

    Spurs had a lovely training ground in Cheshunt at Brookfield Lane until they sold it off for housing. A and B team games were played there.

    And right on cue...

    One player and two staff at Watford and Burnley assistant manager Ian Woan are among six positive Premier League tests for coronavirus.

    The other two are at a third club, the details of which have not been revealed.


    But of course, protecting Sky Sports subscription numbers is far more important

    He was a handy player at Forest. Hope it's not serious. Sounds like it isn't.

    He was the bane of our existence one season

    ...oh wait, I'm referencing something that happened in the mid-to-late 90s, which apparently we're not allowed to talk about according to some conspirated foghorn

    Lucky for Curtis, he's saying this about a team whose fanbase is noted for having the hide of rhinoceros

    ...wait, I got that wrong, I meant to say a fanbase noted for being so thin-skinned a paper cut is a death sentence

    Liga MX has been cancelled after 12 Santos Laguna players tested positive for Covid-19.
    The club plays at the Corona Stadium...

    Haaland just nutmegged Neuer in the first 30 seconds of Dortmund v Bayern. Boateng cleared off the line to spare his blushes.

    A lot of the football in the relaunched Bundesliga's been as dead as the atmospheres, as half the teams look miles off the pace.
    Quick start in this one, though. Both sides seem up for it. Not the same without a crowd, though.

    Kimmich put Bayern ahead just before the break with a chip from outside the box. 1-0 HT.
    Burki should do better than that, but it's a nice attempt.

    Haaland goes off injured, as things go from bad to worse for Dortmund.
    He's replaced by Giovanni Reyna, son of former City and Sunderland player Claudio. Born in Mackemville.

    1-0 FT. Bayern take the points and almost certainly the league, too.
    Leipzig can overtake Dortmund tomorrow with a win, but they'd be on level points and seven behind the leaders.

    I've never understood why Dortmund persist with Burki as their number one, as he's always got an error or two in him and has for some time. What makes it more obvious is how he's never established himself in the Swiss team
