Sad news. Put together and coached a very good Trinity team back in the early 80s. My favourite of all the many many coaches we've had since Triall.

I'm pro taking precautions on the balance of risk. When the hospitals were overwhelmed with covid cases like in March/April then it was sensible to have tight restrictions to get the caseload down to a level where it could be managed through isolating local outbreaks. Use government support (expensively) to keep the economy afloat till the caseload was down and then have a reopening with appropriate precautions (wearing masks, some distancing, increased cleaning, ventilation) to minimise the risk.

So whats yr view on a move if it was linked to a new owner and new investor. Might be the difference between survival of the club or not.
If it resulted in big investment and a team that could compete at top level, would that affect yr thoughts on travelling?

With the amount of research you've done, I reckon you know those people didn't die solely of the flu.

I'd play the strongest team possible against Catalans, then rest a good number against Salford in the league game.

Starting to worry about not only FCs future but also of the game in general. My thoughts are that i cant see FC or KR surviving this and when things settle and Covid 19 is beaten through vaccination we will end up with one new Hull United style club

I think this is a bit of a short-sighted view.

There's an excellent letter (1st one on the Letter's Page) in this week's LE staying how a North American company, Comcast, own Sky Sports and it's no coincidence that over the last year or so Sky's coverage of American football & basketball has increased significantly.

Maybe we could inject them with some confidence at the start of each half?

Or maybe add to the list of future genetic modifications along with increased stamina and optional armour plating???

Helps to get the wheels oiled when it comes to lobbying for changes to regulations.

The "rule of six" included very specific exemptions for "grouse shooting".
