Hawkers United?

In that weird way that a news item leads onto different things, I have been listening to talk about the viral nature of the Corona Virus and thinking about the overwhelming number of players that rinse their mouths out and let it run onto the pitch or share water bottles, and the wholesale spitting onto the pitch. Whilst top players are probably (hopefully) being closely monitored to ensure they are free of flu, the same cannot be said for players in lower leagues who emulate their heroes, spit for spit! Apparently the virus can survive outside a host for up to a day, so even on a cold pitch or a plastic bottle other players would be at risk all match. Is it time for top players to set an example? Is it perhaps time for the FA to enforce a spitting ban? Should players have their own, dedicated, bottle? What do you think?
