At least we will get 1 more match though I have a horrible feeling the season will be suspended thereafter. Having said that if the league decides to finish the season as it is now we are up!!!

Poor decision really when the rest of the leagues are suspended I don't get how our league can be ok to play when all other leagues are suspended what's the difference

Strange decision but a chance for what should be a good pay day for the club. It could be the last for a while. Everyone that can needs to turn up for this one. The club has little time to promote this game so we all need to play a part in making sure all know the game is on.

This is escalating by the hour and I will be very surprised if this season is completed. The peak is still 10-14 weeks away, many will have had it by then, contacts will have expired, players have lost fitness etc, it would be a lottery who could get into form after such a delay.

I would also think tomorrows game me be the last for a while. :cry:

For those with concerns the decision is yours whether to attend or not. It isn't compulsory and being made to attend against your will.
I am going. I hope the guy who sits next to me and returned from his holiday abroad yesterday doesn't. 😂

Terrible decision by the national league what about our stewards and turnstile operators what if they decide not to turn up due to the risks with the virus etc I personally think we should of followed by example of the rest of the leagues in Britain and suspended it until further notice all it takes is one player staff member to get it between now and kick off tmro and the games off due to isolation being needed

Apparently if you are close to someone who has it, for around 5 minutes, there's a good chance you could get it, so maybe we should all move around the stand. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Worldwide travel will probably be stopped soon to stop further spread of the virus

A lot of the airlines are already saying that passenger numbers are drastically down.
