Further Silliness Regarding That There Virus.

[Ken4155]

I read yesterday that the Premier League had banned hand shakes before the match because of Covid 19. Just watched Burnley v Spurs and none of the players shook hands...……………………….before the match. However, on quite a few occasions after the odd foul (there were 9 yellow cards) opponents helped one another to their feet by taking hold of their hands. Then, at the end of the match, almost to a man, the players shook hands with each other, some even hugging. So what's the point of avoidance prior to kick off?

they may have forgotten in and after the heat of battle. Still, only by doing it a few times will you remember to do it.

Bet they were gobbing all over the pitch as well Ken. The virtue signallers have stolen the beautiful game as well.

The moment you get an itch on the face that goal is ruined.

Up the Clarets - I think we deserved a win, but hey ho .... another point in the bag I suppose :)

What we have to do Tills is touch somebody else's face instead of our own. A bleedin good slap for the deserving is considered a social service in these strange times.

Plenty of other fun ways to greet one another.

Didn't need the Corona virus to do that back in the 70's, Mamya ;-)
