Feel across all leagues and competitions thus far the TV companies have been very quiet in all this. They could apply a lot of pressure to move towards a particular outcome if they wanted to.

Can't really blame them. Haven't decided in my own mind what should happen.

First chart I've seen with lines going down recently...

I would love to know who does the ratings for Dundee Utd. They have been vastly overrated on every FM for as long as I can remember.

Not specific to that guy or WHO, but it is concerning the degree to which apportioning blame has become more prevalent in the last couple of days (obviously the arseholes you would expect it from have been at it from the outset). Is this an awakening as to how bad things are going to get? A...

And following Johnson testing positive, you now also have the Health Secretary testing positive. And the Chief Medical Officer self-isolating after showing symptoms.

Yeah, that's the next thing I'm looking for: how long the lag is between peak cases and peak deaths. Also, post peak, do the doctors manage to save more people due to being less stretched? Or do they run out of equipment? Or is there a point where care standards inevitably slip as the strain...

Yeah, things can can out of hand in a hurry. Indian authorities in the northern state of Punjab have quarantined around 40,000 residents from 20 villages following a Covid-19 outbreak linked to just one man. The 70-year-old died of coronavirus - a fact found out only after his death. The man, a...

Can all have a good chuckle at Johnson, but I'd be more concerned that this takes a number of key people (scientists, emergency planners, etc) out for a period and that has an adverse impact on government ability to respond to developments and coordinate a response. Also, Raab is pencilled in...

I assume they've regressed to wandering around whistling.

Aye, and I'm looking forward to the tax dodgers among them complaining given their income is based on Treasury figures. Small adjustments for a classic alum cover. Who's to say Covid doesn't look like that? Intensely relaxed. You're just doing this because you Balkans are uncomfortable...

I've never felt closer to you than I do right now.

Damn right.

The stimulus package being passed? A feeling there might be the beginning of an end in sight? The unemployment figures being in line with what was expected and so already priced into the market? Loooking forward to a raking in huge profits on a busy Easter Sunday?

Without live football it is getting hard to keep track of what day/time it is.

I refuse to put all my eggs in one basket. Still have an MP3 player and watch in addition to my phone. And still frequently use cash and haven't put any payment options on my phone.

Pah. You sound like one of those know-it-all countries/states who have enough beds/masks/ventilators.

I know, but now I have no idea when it'll happen.
