    Broad Lane / A45 Crash / Death

    I get what you're saying but if you're not familiar with that island it's easy to see why it's confusing. Coming from the Broad Lane in either direction there's a give way onto the island but then 25 metres ahead there's a set of lights on the island. People see the green light ahead of them and...

    EFL Decision on Coventry’s future expected today

    Good shout. Needs the teams at the top to tell them they'll have to hand their TV money back if they're going to cause the season to be abandoned. Doubt any of them can afford that.

    You don't always notice the gradual decline in the standard of politicians but every now and then BBC Parliament have a day where they cover a historical event. When you see footage of parliament from the 80s and even early 90s the difference to now is astonishing. Even if you didn't agree...

    Difficulty with EPL restart

    The biggest issue I have with stopping the season, irrespective of if you void or go PPG, is that you're setting precedent. You're saying lose 6 weeks and its not possible to run the season. At the moment nobody has a clue when things will be back to normal so what happens if we get to...

    Middlesborough got a points deduction for refusing to play when they had a flu bug going round the squad in the mid-90s.

    Wasps downward spiral...

    What a joke. The council have turned down other applications but you watch this one sail through when Richardson is claiming the demand is there. Even that is moving the goalposts. Originally we were told we needed the hotel for City of Culture but now that has been missed they've changed their...

    Accrington Chairman on twitter

    Ticketmaster refunds are taking a lot longer than usual at the moment so wouldn't worry. Each refund has to be done individually and they are rapidly approaching $3billion worth of tickets for cancelled and postponed events.

    Difficulty with EPL restart

    In legal terms what would be the difference between a player missing games because they have covid-19 and a player missing games because they had some other illness?

    Have a mate who is Australian. He was working in the US but has returned home. Upon arrival it was straight into mandatory government 14 day quarantine. Everyone gets the same treatment irrespective of if anyone on the flight has symptoms or a high temperature. Non citizens aren't allowed in the...

    Can't help but wonder if it is coincidence that on the day Vallance and Davies were saying we were too slow to ramp up testing and that has impacted our response Ferguson gets thrown under the bus. Suspicions that aren't calmed by the fact it was the Daily Telegraph and Spectator that stuck the...

    Very clear from his performance today why he does his best to avoid PMQs. Without a friendly crowd and being able to palm questions off onto others he was like a rabbit in the headlights.

    Heathrow CEO has told a Commons select committee today that they are going to start trialling temperature checks in one terminal (T2) from next week. Its a joke how far behind everyone else we are.

    EFL Decision on Coventry’s future expected today

    How on earth have they got this from what Parry said? Obviously I'm not saying we're going to be back playing shortly and everything will get nicely wrapped up but not sure how, from what Parry has actually said, they got that L1 and L2 will be abandoned while the Championship is completed.

    A lot of it is over my head but the bit I do get is that the virus, as with regular flu, mutates into different strains. Hence the yearly flu jab is a best guess of which strain they think will be dominant that winter. What this appears to be saying is the virus already existed but in February...

    For those who are keen to sue China, not that I'm sure there's even a mechanism to do that, this report suggests that the strain of the virus causing so many problems in here and in the US is D614G which may have originated here. Spike mutation pipeline reveals the emergence of a more...

    Even by the Telegraph's standards this seems irresponsible. Just had my Mum on the phone in a complete state because according to the Telegraph the furlough scheme is to be wound down. As I'm furloughed she's now panicking that I'll be made redundant. However looking into it what has actually...
