Footy's back.

Don't know how they've managed it but the NPL is back on, Clitheroe v Kendal Town, Tuesday 7.45, you have to jump through hoops so I doubt I'll be going, I'm just amazed it's back on again.

Sadly I don't think I can make it ? Perhaps sometime in the near distant future?

Possibly Balan, if I could work out what the 'near distant future' is ?

sinkov--at least that is a bit of positive news. We don't know when the Northern League will start again. The Management Committee are meeting on 4 January and hoping that they may be able to start again on 9 January, although, with the way things are there is no guarantee of anything.

They've been in discussions with the local council Sub, who have sanctioned it. Usual stuff, temperature checks, hand sanitiser, no away fans, but in addition, no food or drink on sale inside the ground, but they'll be selling it outside and you can take it in, , if you're under cover you have to wear a mask, no leaning against the wall surrounding the pitch, everyone has to stand further back to allow a free passage round the ground next to the wall, social distancing must be observed and the council will be sending their Stasi along to ensure the regs are strictly adhered to.

Depends on the weather if I go or not, I'm not standing in my usual place on the Top Side alongside 300 other people with portable virus carriers strapped to their faces, it's not safe, and I won't be wearing one either. So if it's fine and I can stand in the open air without my muzzle on and not end up like a drowned rat, I'll be there. If it's pissing down I won't be. The forecast is a bit iffy, rain expected maybe around 9pm, if it holds off until then, I'll be there.

It's odds on now for the full January Lockdown.
