He was using it as a status symbol, typical BC stuff. Lacking anything exciting going on in your life, you just contrive I-am-special narratives. Some people want to turn the current disaster into an opportunity to prove they really pertain to a new superrace of viral-resistant illuminati. I can't wait to hear from local vegans how their diet made them especially immune, the meditators and mindfulness gurus, all lifestyle-splaining their way into that special class of humans Covid-19 was never going to touch, and all to their own credit.

Unnamed Trialist Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 So Bundesliga is meant to start up next weekend, both 1 and 2, and now all of Dynamo Dresden has been put in quarantine. Two players tested positive and they've recently all been training together, so there you go. So they can't play, and that just shows the difficulty of doing this: all you need is one player on a team sharing a dressing room to come down, that removes that sides fixtures for two weeks, possibly the rival team played against as well. So cancelled matches in an already tight schedule because managing this properly is not that easy. https://www.goal.com/en/news/german-football-restart-dilemma-dresden-squad-quarantine/1slurqcoei1t01nnpb0fi1y6t7 I happened to see Dynamo in a late August fixture in blistering heat, in their stadium, mediocre team with a great venue and superb fans, was one of my best experiences in a stadium. I was there as I have a niece in the city, and it has barely been affected by the virus. So if it is happening there, in an unlikely spot, on a side that probably would have the least exposure amongst German pro teams, let's not be surprised if we see more of this shredding the Bundesliga schedules to pieces as it occurs elsewhere.

Stryker911 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 There has been so many videos of how awesome Davies has been, not sure if this one has been posted yet. Gives another of credit to Davies for one of their biggest wins of the season. johnyb and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Really hope all goes well for the Bundesliga re-opening... If they can prove to the world they have a proper system in place to mitigate the risk of this novel coronavirus, being brave and being first will have been a masterstroke. Not just on the public health side of things, but what I mean is from a sporting perspective. All eyes will be on them! I was already gravitating away from English football and towards German football. Now that they will be the only show in town, i'll be doubling down. The other big leagues will have some catching up to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they've built in enough contingency plans for if small breakouts happen. If a team could isolate for 2 weeks but the league could keep going.

My understanding is that players will be isolated and not teams. Players will be regularly checked, before games, training, etc, and that should be enough to prevent a situation where a whole team is forced to miss out. This could also open up chances for reserve team players to play more often with first teams. It will be more critical to have a big squad. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's what they would like to do but on the Gegenpressing Podcast they mentioned this is how the DFL would like to handle things but in Germany, a ton of powers are in the hands of states and local governments. Dresden was put into 2 week quarantine because that's what the health authorities in the region suggested. I really hope they continue to just roll with the punches on this one and keep it moving forward, even if some teams need to sit out or miss key players.
