Next stage would be recommending people stay a metre apart.

So as we only get 10-12k in a 25k stadium surely we can just spread people out?
Good call! :D :D
There won't be 10 -12k as all the over 70's will be ordered to stay at home!

I'll be surprised if we don't see an abridged season at the very best. The worst, well, we don't want to think about that.

There will be a ban on sporting events (and all gatherings) but not yet.

As soon as we start to hit the upward trend, expect it.

I know it’s a serious virus, but this video is so very funny IMO 😂
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Just a pity the Superleague suspension didn't start at 7pm Friday 13th March.
