    The media have been classed as essential workers. They can't work from home and the only guidance when working is "observe, where possible, the social distancing guidance". So unlike Cummings they have a strong argument that they are following the guidelines.

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    His wage bill is massively out. Ignoring the arbitrary 22 player squad limit he seems to have put in place the EFL have said it will take 56 days to complete the league. Even with a pre-season of only 2 weeks, which is the lowest anyone has suggested, that's £550,000 just for the players. Also...

    Wasps downward spiral...

    They've claimed every year that its a record number of events and conferences yet the diary of events on their website is increasingly empty, as is the car park whenever you drive past. Also has never reflected in the accounts. Surely if we believe each year they are attracting a record amount...

    Advantages of being on an island! Oh wait... How reliant is the local economy on tourism? Hopefully they don't let people in too soon.

    Tim Fisher

    Boddy is the Chief Exec and runs the club day to day. Things like arranging the deal at St Andrews, any talks with Wasps, dealing with Robins etc. Fisher is Chairman and is supposedly working on the new stadium project, if you believe such a thing exists. Personally I'm quite happy with Fisher...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Presumably if the vote is to play on then there will be another vote in a few weeks when we're no closer to restarting. Its not like voting to play is going to magically resolve the issues around restarting the league. They haven't even got a date to restart the Premier League, and two new...

    They're learning. Too many stories in the last couple of years have disappeared with no impact after some complete BS was thrown out to refute them. Just let them fall into a trap. The call obviously went out to give the protecting his kids line as every Conservative MP tweeted the same thing...

    There's something a bit suspect about the twitter trending topics. At no point has Dominic Cummings been trending despite pretty much everything related to the story trending. As a result people have started spelling it wrong, DominicCummngs, and surprise surprise its the number 2 trend.

    Bundesliga going ahead

    Enjoying the Bundesliga more than I expected considering I know virtually nothing about German football and only recognise a handful of players. Not sure if its a change because of the conditions they're playing in but there seems to be a lot less messing around and complaining than in the PL...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    Imagine if this was the point the Championship broke away from the EFL and they ended promotion and relegation. Sunderland and Pompey would be stuck in L1! Obviously won't happen but would be funny. Even if the Championship did decide to move to that system they're find a way to get the 'big'...

    Coincidence how the advice changed once he'd done this? They even dropped 'stay home' in favour of 'stay alert'. At the end of the day if they were doing nothing wrong why has it been kept secret? His wife has written in the Mail, Spectator and been on Radio 4 describing how they coped with...

    According to the government guidelines if you are unable to look after your children when you are displaying symptoms you should contact the local authority. Also Jack Wakefield, who is Cummings brother in law, lives less than a mile away from them in London.

    The briefing is going so badly today I'm actually starting to feel sorry for Shapps. Sent out to defend the indefensible, no doubt as nobody more senior has the guts to do it themselves.
