If we would ever get hit with a real problem such as Spanish Flu of 1918 where tens of millions die worldwide I can not see how the hell we would not come apart worldwide.

Hell my condo office is limiting the business they will do with the condo owners and this is south Florida hardly ground zero for this virus.

Hate needing to agree with Trump but this is way way overblown

hopefully we do not have to die in millions and that they find a cure , but in this soccer money thing I m happy with it because of the insane wages players are getting paid when there is so much poverty , someday everyone will say trump is right .

As no one would paid players anymore then they are worth to the owners of the teams no matter how insane those wages seems compare to the average level of wages in their societies that what the market demand.

so you think it s good and justified to have a wage of 500 000 euros a week?

Good, hard to say. Justified, Yes. That's what people are willing to pay. As for not having gate receipts. , most pro teams make their money off of merchandise and TV rights, so I don't think the teams are hurting.

So you would wish the power to overrule the market an place your idea repeat your idea of a fair wages for those players?

Bet the billionaire owners of those teams would be happy as more of the wealth go to them from the players.

It sure the hell is not going go to the fans and they already had stated their willingness to paid the wages an other costs by the act of buying the tickets that no one force them to buy.

Humans are amazingly resilient. It would most likely take more than the estimated 50 million+ fatalities of the 1918 flu to end is all.

There is possibly a greater risk of the final death tally from Covid-19 being substantially higher than the 1918 illness.

1) Larger population

2) Air travel is commonly used these days. Plenty of recirculated air inside those planes.

3) Higher percentage of people moving around in various forms of vehicular traffic.

4) Tightly packed trains used to travel to and from work and elsewhere

5) More stores and more people using them for buying anything and everything. In 1918, many people grew their own food, many made their own clothing...

Time will tell if this turns into a major epidemic with millions of deaths.

Who cares about a market that the poor supporter gets nothing than only spending.?
No one force them to buy tickets as a drug addict no one force him to buy drugs but still drugs are bad and not healthy for society if not for him.

So you wish overlords to be appointed to protect the people from what you consider their own bad judgment.

Next the drugs laws are not helpful as they never been able to stop one addict from getting drugs an only useful in filling up the prisons of mainly harmless people an providing the funding for violence drug gangs that only can exist due to the drug laws

It is what it is no matter the importance of the game or what so ever, it s still a football game played in a field . They don t deserve that gate money.
I would pay that money to police , doctors and rescuers that they risk their lives to save others.

Ok, then don't go to the game and donate the money as you see fit. Others might have a different opinion.

You are free to spend your money as you wish however you are not free to force your opinions on others.

Plenty of people calling me and asking me to donate funds to the police and fire department members an then it is up to me just as it is up to me spending money or not on live sport events.

@BillRM,

Yes I agree, it s your money.
But if I was one of those live rescue official and you call me for something you need and I know how is your opinion,I will tell you , call your idol now, you respect them more by contribute to their crazy salary .
