Yes, you are correct Singcobb, but we also have police everywhere who will check where you are going and why, going shopping for food, visiting pharmacy is OK, otherwise we have problems. Basically everyone here is following the rules, 6 deaths here up to yet, and government trying to ´flatten the curve’. They have even closed our airport, cargo flights with essential supplies only, no passenger flights in or out UFN. Ah well, wish all the best to everyone and let’s get through this.

Same here, all bars, restaurants and shops that don’t sell food, medicine or pet food are closed UFN. Borders pretty much closed, work from home and stay in your house, no socialising. Starting to go stir crazy and it has only been since Monday!

I was in the Spoin Kop, have memories of having to attend a crap game (Bradford Park Avenue?) to get a voucher for a ticket, as long as we won the replay.

When very young can remember watching Freddie Ramscar play and also Reg Elvey. Memorable moments was the game at Millwall in 1961 I think - where there was a 'boxing match' between Gale(centre half) and Howarth of Millwall; both sent off, Gale with blood pouring from his head and Howarth with huge black eye. An even more memorable game was at Crystal Palace where we paraded new signing Cliff Holton; he scored 3! In my view the best striker we have had so far. Was at Brighton where we won 0-5 in 1964, Kurila and Branston were outstanding as was Frank Large who scored 3. In more recent times Ricky Holmes games at Stevenage, Luton and the draw against Mansfield, big mistake for him to leave us! I failed to get back to the coach in time whilst in Bury Market and was abandoned so had to make the 17 miles on my own initiative. Arrived just in time to witness Bayo's goals which included a thumping header. No longer a great drinker but the antics of a boozer inside Coventry Stadium at one of the internal stair entrance was entertaining. CW man management style in front of support at Accrington and Notts County were impressive.
