The medics have said that we can no longer contain it and in the absence of a vaccination building up herd immunity is our best beet. Most of us will probably get it at some point, but hopefully just mildly - the important thing is we try to particularly avoid passing it on to the elderly or those with serious health conditions.


There's a few of us on here in the high risk categories, me for one, so let's hope none of us that are get it! Herd immunity is fine for those not in the high risk categories, it means nothing to those who are. Vastly reducing the spread like all other countries are trying to do with the social isolation & closing everything down, however may well slow it long enough for a vaccine to have been found so that those who are high risk can be vaccinated & at least stand a better chance of survival. I saw yesterday that Canada have a potential vaccine that they are ready to start testing. The medical experts here seem to be at some odds with the medics in every other country - that concerns me!

I am also in the High/At Risk category.

I am trying very hard to stay calm and rational but when all I am seeing is quotes of "if you're not in the at risk group you'll be fine" and that all those who have died are in the said group that is easier said than done.

It's beginning to feel a little like we are expendable and our demise is almost to be expected for the longevity of mankind.

Tough times indeed.

As for the season at all levels. If we are not going again by the start of June at the latest I believe all leagues will be voided and reset to the start of this season with teams as they are.
The levels of litigation that would proceed should teams be promoted/relegated from positions now would cause mayhem and next season wouldn't start!

Yes, tough on those having a successful year but I don't see another option.

If that happens it will be interesting what will happen regarding referee promotions and removals, again at all levels.


I know this is a refereeing site, but in the current climate, thinking about which referees may or may not be promoted really isn't interesting at all.
