    Sky saying he went home between tests. Assuming thats true then its inexcusable, that's not a simple misunderstanding or something minor, its deliberately breaking the rules. Holding did make a good point. If they're supposed to be in a bubble why are the England squad arranging their own...

    Newcastle fans on screen

    Surprised they aren’t on a delay, was obvious someone would try something.

    I don't understand why they do this to themselves. Is it just a form of dead catting? Would be much easier to just say Gove made a mistake and use it as an example of why people need to think about what they're doing and pay attention to the rules.

    Thats a couple of vaccines now that are showing promise. Lets hope they come though and its not the press hyping things up. Even if we can come up with something that reduces the severity we can start looking at getting life back to normal. Remember bird flu where you got told to stay at home...

    Seems like they're rotating the bowlers due to the number of back to back games. Makes sense but you wonder if this has been properly explained to them given Broads comments when he didn't play the 1st test.

    Got some more info from a couple of people who were working on tours. They've both been told the same thing, that the government won't allow artists and production to move around the country. Seems an odd call when, as far as I'm aware, there's no restrictions on other people going about their...

    Ricoh is confirmed?

    Suggested years ago it would be useful if the Trust put something together comparing stadium ownership, rental and new build scenarios. I know there's lots of variables but pretty sure you could work something up. Would then give an idea at what point rent becomes the best option.

    Its ridiculous. Got to wear them in the shops, although the police have already said they won't be able to enforce it. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/face-mask-law-england-police-coronavirus-boris-johnson-a9619001.html Not to mention there's no formal method of identifying who...

    Just seen a post from a mate on Facebook who is working on one of the drive-in concert tours. "Government are pulling the plug on the Drive-in concerts." Not sure at the moment if its all of them or just the one he was working on but if it is all of them not sure how they can justify stopping...

    Council have a stadium team for CCFC ??

    Be interesting to find out if they only do this for meetings relating to CCFC or if its standard council policy. Suspect the former which raises the question of why, what are they worried about?

    5 Subs Allowed

    Getting ridiculous. That's potentially 10 stoppages for substitutions. Bet all that time doesn't get added on. They're saying its just for next season as the season could be shorter meaning more games per week but I can't see it being rolled back if it does come in over here for a full season.

    Council have a stadium team for CCFC ??

    "The council has had a team dedicated to this project for many months" makes it sound like a big team of people working on the project full time which would surely raise the question what are they doing? The input required from the council is to identify suitable sites and / or respond in a...

    New Kit

    The club tweeted a few weeks back that the kit was signed off months ago. Even if they don't physically have them yet or are waiting for a sponsor they could do a kit reveal and take pre-orders.

    Don't know what you're worried about. Not as if things like the Russia report, enquiry into bullying allegations against Patel, enquiry in to Islamaphobia etc have been a shambles.

    Transfer Rumour Callum O'Hare - Confirmed

    Good to get this sorted so that he's in for pre-season training. Be a bonus if this rumour about Villa withdrawing their offer is true and we don't have to pay compensation.

    Clive Tyldesley

    If people actually watched it before posting stuff like that he says he's doing it because he's getting so many messages asking what's happened, is he retiring, is he ill etc. Also says that with everything going on in the world at the moment its not a big deal in the grand scheme of things...
