Since when did everyone follow it so well last time?

The games are still going on, which is infinitely better than them not. Just feels a bit weird that the sky appears to be falling in because we've got to work from home when we can, we can't go to the pub past 10pm and the footie won't have any test events with fans for a bit longer

come on Bruce, it's much worse than that

millions face employment uncertainty - myself included, and I haven't known where my next penny was coming from for four of the last six months. Just jumped on my bike like I know, but it's a year of people's lives completely gone, and what's worse is the government just seem to pin it all on the population

One of my greatest pleasures is watching my grandson play footie on Saturday and Sunday mornings, but now I can't do that because they are only allowing 1 parent to attend. So I can't stand in the middle of a feckin big field with no one within 20yards of me but can go to the pub, madness.

Most of it doesn't really effect me in recent times so nothing for me to be angry about.

Just bothers me I can't see anyone but can do anything else other than see friends/family even with precautions. Literally can walk through crowds of people in town, go out drinking etc , but can't sit the other end of my mum's living room again in fear of killing us both.

Makes no sense really , it never really does.

Sense or not mate, if the measures go some way to making sure your mum’s still here in 6 months then.........

If it`s any consolation mate, it`s only advisory, as my lads footy team have just had this out on their Whatsapp group.

What you can`t do 100% is go to somewhere like Goals / any fiveaside pitch and watch from the sidelines.

“since you all followed it last time we’re giving it another go just for the crack”

It could of been sound if it weren’t for that tit

People did follow the rules really well for about 3 months. But it was inevitable things would gradually slip. A full year of restrictions is just mad.

If it`s any consolation mate, it`s only advisory, as my lads footy team have just had this out on their Whatsapp group.

Reading the message I got doesn't mention advisory, in fact it says," the powers that be gave us little time to put safety measures in place ( they are putting track & trace into place ) so it seems to me they had no choice but to implement the 1 parent 1 child rule.

Just been the shop, about 15 in there, 2 (myself included) wearing a mask - another 2/3 distancing

This is why
