As far as Catalans is concerned......



Any one know which planet 48756c6c20 524c4643 comes from, he's certainly well out of touch with reality?

My statement regards age related to players and was fairly obvious, it was your misunderstanding.

What's with the snide remark, the governments own websites, specifically ONS and the compiled data regards deaths from respiratory diseases, proves without a shadow of doubt that the threat from a virus was never greater than others for any of at least the last 5 years.

Would you like me to show you the actual numbers of deaths FROM respiratory diseases as underlying cause of death for the last 6 years?

It's not a case of C.19 "suddenly getting bored and packed up and gone home" whatever that means, it's the fact that the threat from that virus was never what has being made out in the first instance and even despite the 'fiddling' by government by changing how you count a death, forcing doctors to put C.19 down instead of or as well as pneumonia and the fudging of numbers using a test that we know is wildly inaccurate*, the numbers still never rose above previous years influenza/pneumonia deaths, in fact they have been lower than last years 'good' flu year and significantly lower than 2018 and 2014/15 and further back 2009.

*this was even admitted by WHO and many, many top immunologists, including the Chairman of the Immunology dept at Bern University, Professor Beda Stadler.

all I can can hope is that you and yours never exposed to the virus, personally, the sunny side of caution suits. (and if you ever get it, or spread it, please stay away from the NHS, it is there for the people that are doing their best)

There's caution and there's an insane belief in something that has no data to prove it even exists in the form that is being made out, and from that massively greater damage done to society and individuals by reacting the way the government have.

There were 45% fewer deaths from respiratory diseases at the so called peak of C.19 - 1,968 in April 2020 compared to 3,521 in 2nd week Jan 2015, where were you in terms of wanting to shut down going to the rugby, locking down everyone in the name of caution? What about all the other years when we've had more people dying FROM viruses and respiratory diseases, did you voice your concerns regards shutting down everything then on the back of public health concerns, why not?

Did you wear a face covering, anti bac your hands every couple of minutes and everywhere you went, did you stay away from work (unless of course key worker like myself), not go to the rugby and not live life normally, not see people at all during those times when people were dying in greater numbers than at any time during this supposed epidemic, or, like everyone, did you actually live a normal life without doing any/most of those things, thus contributing to hospitals being at breaking point and vulnerable people dying from respiratory diseases in greater numbers?
Last year respiratory deaths as underlying cause numbered over 71,000 just in England and wales alone, the number trotted out by gov for C.19 deaths is not and never has been based on underlying cause of death, which is the only lawful way to record/code a death on the register of deaths, the vast majority of people dying are not from a virus at all but their underlying health issues, there are no excess deaths FROM respiratory diseases incl C.19, rather there are fewer respiratory disease deaths than at least any of the last 5 years.

... let's hope you're fit and healthy, with no underlying health conditions, then you'll have nothing to worry about.

You’re using the wrong measures and I think, although it is difficult to tell, inappropriate comparisons. Plus you are ignoring the impact of the measures to limit spread.

Why would you hope that I am fit and healthy when it's clear your comment is a veiled threat of wishing harm! Is this the level of discussion here that because people don't agree/can't understand you wade in with passive-aggressive responses or just plain insults?

you're more likely to die from any underlying health condition if we continue to lockdown and stay away from being on the terraces and acting as normal, this has been proven with the massive excess deaths that have not occurred FROM respiratory diseases, quite the opposite.

How is it inappropriate, please expand? Death toll mortality rate was the main factor in locking down was it not? A death rate that was in essence plucked out of thin air by WHO on the back of ridiculously weak/poor methodology and even more flawed tests, which has not only never come to pass, it's not come even close to their initial mortality rate, in fact a factor of 30x less, or the same as influenza ...

But what measures are there other than deaths, you're ignoring the grievous impact from locking down which is demonstrably proven to have done massively more harm than any minor virus strain. locking down has had amnegative impact not a positive one for goodness sakes. You'll be stating next that the number of deaths FROM respiratory diseases are lower because of lockdown, that would be completely false. The death toll is in line with what was happening before C.19 arrived here and any cases tested. the only excess deaths have occured from people dying other than FROM respiratory diseases.

Why would the government use any mention on a death certificate, even if with zero proof of any virus and use that death along with tens of thousands of others to create a death toll that is criminally a lie/fake news to justify lockdown/measures when they knew that the actual death toll FROM respiratory diseases was already significantly lower than previous years and remained lower through the so called peak of C.19?

My stepdaughters friend is now going to die because she was forced to stop her cancer treatment due to lockdown and told to isolate, her tumour was shrinking and very positive prognosis, 12 weeks on, it's now grown and it's all too late. One anecdotal example that you could repeat tens of thousands of times where people have died from their underlying health condition because of lack of health care, whether that be in/from a hospital, within the community, care homes, even by families not being there for their relatives as much as they were before. I know this happens as I and my colleagues work within the community aiding the elderly/vulnerable.

Crikey, you've taken the definition of "persecution complex" to a new level.

Now TV do a month's Sky Sports pass for £34, that's £1.62 a game.

Or £17 for each of the hull games, none of it going to the club.

I'd willingly pay the club the extra £17 pounds, even though I'm a passholder, but..............



Edit: It looks like you can easily watch using a pc (and cast to your tv if it's capable).

Are the club working on streaming access for passholders ?

A 30 day pass from our first game would actually cover 4 games (all of which are likely to be televised), you can also have 3 people watching at the same time so if you split the cost it would be less than £3 each per game, less than it would cost for most people to travel to the KCOM.

As I understand its been discussed, tough ask to get SKY to give away their product for free though.

Yes, I had it my head that it was 2 home games per month I'd be missing.



Families watching would be an issue for the club, as it would reduce income significantly if they offered a streaming service.

Some of the premier League Football is showing live on Pick.
I wouldnt be surprised to see some S/L games on Pick

... Pick is owned by Sky, so who knows?

Or go watch it in a pub?

Boris has just announced that stadiums can reopen in October so looks like there is a possibility clubs may be able to play in front of fans come October.

I would imagine these announcements are being made based on the science and data that SAGE and other experts have no doubt looked at and not just something announced on a whim.

...it's also based on one or two events being opened before October, and carefully monitored to see what the impact might be.

Where's Karen when you need her?
