    Suspect amateur football will be obliged to take a break.

    I’m presuming amateur grinds to a halt. Told my rugby team that’s game over for the season

    If schools are staying open I dont see why grassroots football should stop. So kids can go sit in class 5 days a week but cant kick a ball about on a weekend.

    I don't see why, this lockdown isn't as draconian as the first one, it's more like it was in June when footy started up again.
