All Rugby League is stopped until April 3rd at least due to this virus job. Not sure about the amateur/junior game although I would think they will follow suit. |

Nothing that has happened before even comes close to this so can’t begin to think what the implications could turn out to be both in and out of the game. |

It is absolutely dire and Fax have my utmost sympathy. You have only played three home games so far and unlike in footballs Premier League, where matchday income is only around a tenth of the annual income, it is going to be a massive hit for all clubs in RL where there is a huge reliance on match day income. Especially should the suspension of the competition be extended. Luckily for FCHT there were only 3 more home games to be played so it hopefully wont be a massive disaster should this season be written off. But I can see other clubs who live hand to mouth ceasing to exist. From a sporting point of view these are frightening times nevermind from a humanity point of view. |

From a factual point of view I have little idea on this but from a common sense point of view I would think its going to be May or June before this is near peaking so would be very surprised if Rugby was back before then. In reality I would be very surprised if this season even resumed, fingers crossed it is not that bad but obviously peoples health comes first. |

I believe the Chairman of the Championship meet on Thursday. Whilst it's myopic to focus on our league with everything else going on with wages to pay and no match day income I think the cash flow implications for most clubs will be significant if not catastrophic. |

We didn't buy them this time for the 1st time in years. Looks a good decision for us at least. |
