I was thinking the same. Hopefully some of the players will step up and support the staff.

One player will do it and there'll be a sheepish landslide is where my money is at.

Quite a few clubs in Europe already doing it.

Cristiano Ronaldo (IIRC he initiated it first) / Juventus, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid and a few in Germany etc.

Hope she makes a quick recovery either way, Harry.

I was wondering if the hospital's in the counties local to me are quiet, as cases of Corona in Norfolk/Suffolk are still <500 according to current stats.

Fingers crossed everything is ok with her.

Is it a cold or possible onset of allergies? I've had sniffles on and off for a well or two. Hayfever kicking in, basically.

With my mate they initially diagnosed him from the chest x-rays, they didn't get a positive test result back until 2 or 3 days later.

They must be laughing just now. This is exactly what Trump was put into the office to do.

Fine in theory, except when Trump has said that he will ignore the specific controls and oversight mechanisms, and effectively dish out £500bn of it at his own discretion and refuse to account to anyone

Fingers crossed for all those affected on here that they come out fine.

I think Man Utd have given 3.5 million to a local hospital, I don’t know if that was the club or the players though as I caught it on the radio?

Dave!

So basically he's given away an amount of money in the same region as the 2008 bailout to corps with no oversight, and with no "payback" (I'm not sure off hand if the US took stakes in their banks the same way the British govn did here?)

Not sure about other f1 teams but saw Lando and Carlos have both taken a cut from McLaren to make sure staff can still be paid

Yep, and I think they did that right at the start. No delay, just done and dusted.

Chest x-rays clear, but with no testing for all but the most severe cases they just assume you've got it 😐

Best of luck Harry, seriously.

Question to you all. What would you do if you thought the woman in the queue behind you was far too close? Turn around and tell her? Well that’s what I just did. Jesus the look I got but fuck that, two meters love gimme some space.
