Second wave in Korea, parts of Germany etc so could easily happen here.

That's why no clubs should be signing players at this point imo, it's too risky. Should wait until a couple of weeks before the season starts when everyone knows it's definitely happening, and whether any fans will be let in.

All these waves are still less than our daily numbers so spikes not waves yet and if they get quashed quickly then it will be ok as Beijing did.

Yeah opening the economy is crucial. Doubt the government will be too bothered about lower league football clubs though, hardly makes a difference to the economy other then risking spikes by larger crowds gathering.

Agreed. 21,000,000 people back on lockdown in Beijing too I think I read?

Yeah they’re not really waves, just localised outbreaks which are being caught and managed. A wave would be much more widespread.

Battered Cheltenham last night. From the first whistle they looked so up for it and were constantly picking up the second balls in midfield and pressing high. Cheltenham looked like rabbits in headlights. Credit to Curle and the team because I think most of us had written them off.

I see McCormack is still doing his thing in central midfield for you lot.

Thought he might struggle with the long break and then 2 quick games, looked rusty in the first game but thought he ran that game last night until he got subbed. Just makes everything look so simple in that midfield area. IF you end up winning the final he’d have had 3 promotions in 3 seasons which I think says a lot about him.

Been a big miss for us this season, he’d have definitely done a job in the championship if just his leadership alone.

When we played you a couple of seasons ago, that still remains the game where there's been the biggest swing in a game due to one substitution. McCormack was stopping everything going through the centre of the pitch for us that afternoon and as soon as he went off, the game completely swung. Never known such an immediate change to a game before.

Yeah the 0-0 where he got subbed for Cook who then should absolutely have been sent off for stopping a counter attack for you right at the end but somehow got a yellow.

Weird game that, one of the very very few where Jones changed his precious diamond for an opposition.

Yeah I think as we know with McCormack getting him on the pitch consistently is the hardest part, but when he plays he’s probably the best central midfielder in the division.

Would like to see him alongside Anthony Grant, imagine trying to get past those two.

Too many SW clubs already for my liking!
More the merrier, especially as there are so few grounds i can get there and back in a day.

Knowing my luck Swindon will be midweek ....again

Either or. I expect i won't be able to make one of Plymouth, Bristol Rovers, Swindon or Exeter (if they come up) for those reasons.

Can’t really decide.

Would prefer Exeter to go up as around the corner but is a mighty great away weekend.

Northampton is closer but is very “meh” as an away day to be polite.

Will be nice to see curle win in the playoffs but would be nice to see how Exeter fair in league 1 again.

So as you can tell, very undecided!

Meh is literally the most praise for an away day we deserve!

I wonder how many both teams would have taken?

Another trip to Wembley for Exeter and Northampton not far from Wembley really.

Believe who, the Chinese government or The Metro (which is where I think it was reported)?

I wouldn’t believe a word either said, though the metro is rather less threatening and isn’t slowly taking over the world.

I would miss Exeter as they usually bring a decent following to our ground and, despite it being a West Country derby, behave impeccably (a number of teams more local to us, I won't name them...oh go on I hear you say, Cheltenham and Oxford...have let themselves down seriously on previous visits), and we usually have a really good game when we play them.

Without getting into a slanging match - FGR fans have hardly covered themselves in glory in recent yeard.
