If you like Russia so much why don't you go and live there. The only difference in England is people have been asked to work at home but from my experience hardly anyone who doesn't have to is anyway. If people went to the office there would be more face to face contact and more spreading of...

Macron was struggling pre-Covid but I wouldn't bet against him winning this year (although admittedly if this involves running against Le Pen again the job is made easier for him). I wouldn't take the same bet on Boris Johnson if we had a snap General Election. Regardless Drakeford and...

Boris Johnson won the last election by 11% and he has seemingly blown that lead so it isn't always the case. I don't think the First Ministers of Scotland and Wales engaging in political manoeuvres to try and secure a better deal for their countries is really that surprising. Covid reproduces...

He did also lend England 4 million Covid tests so let's not run away with the Wales Bad, England Good narrative. So you re criticising him for being overly cautious - over restrictions - and for not being cautious enough over the Rugby? Which one is it? Waled did move to what they call Level...

This is the most recent poll I can find in Wales and whatever he is doing it seems quite popular Labour are 13-points ahead in the polls in Wales. In fairness what he is doing is fairly common amongst the rest of the world so he is hardly an outlier.

My point is some people are talking like we have won the war. We are doing very well in the battle so far (although obviously one person dying of it is one person too many). I have been a contractor for the last decade or so so don't get sick pay and have had three days of sick, two for...

I always thought viruses mutated towards weaker versions - certainly Spanish Flu never went anywhere and you don't hear about it anymore - but apparently not always the case and I imagine there could be a few bumps along that road with stronger strains in the short term. If someone was admitted...

As I said it looks now like Scotland and Wales might have been overly cautious. Then again me and you have never had to make potential life and death decision about people's lives so I am more than willing to cut them some slack (not that living in England that means much).

My point is we need to maintain the apparatus to ramp up again. I am concerned the government are flying a kite about charging people for LFTs which to me is a sign they are washing their hands of the whole thing. If we have to wear a mask down the shops for the rest of winter then so be it...

Without wishing to stop this 'everything back to normal' love in, this time round we had a mild variation so it didn't need mega amounts of intervention (although people still moaned about having to wear masks on a train, but I digress). If the next one - and there will be a next one - is the...

If we are asking the government to split up 'with Covid' and 'because of Covid' do we also have the 20-30 excess deaths before testing became a thing added to the death toll as well?

The one thing holding him back is proving he is good to play most games in a season.

Remember this next time you hear someone say we have to get a striker in the January transfer window.

I would have thought after this it will be difficult for him to play on the tour as most countries he will want to travel to are going to have their population up in arms if he is let in.

In defence of the Taylor Report it did also get rid of fences round the pitch and health and safety in football grounds did need improving as a lot of them were falling apart.

I imagine the survey has helped inform the club's view. I do 'get' people want to stand - I do it myself most of the time at away matches - but the Amex was built as an all seater stadium and if it changed to partially standing now it would probably require a merry go round of season ticket...

I was in the upper tier at Stamford Bridge and so far as I could see everyone was standing up but looking down at the lower tier people were sitting down which suggests it was working itself out. If everywhere was safe standing they could justifiably refuse to sit down if someone behind them...

If it does become common in away ends there does need to still be a sitting section where people can sit and still see the game. As for it happening the Amex, I have never seen a hint from the club that it is going to happen.

Was time for him to move on and Potter bringing in Sanchez was a brave move that paid off but Ryan wasn't that bad, especially for the first couple of seasons.

Thus far, and as ever let us not be complacent, the response in England is looking proportional. Keeping schools and public services up and running is going to be a major challenge though.
