I couldn’t go to the game last night but heard the second half radio Lancs comms. David Unsworth certainly wasn’t impressed with Broja’s work rate and overall body language. Hopefully it’s just a fitness thing at this stage.

Re: Access for home fans

I think a fair bit of the concern is not so much the changes themselves, but the potential safety issues created by the changes. Doug Metcalfe and his team will have put a hell of a lot of work into this and to get health and safety sign off etc. Decisions like this aren't just made up on the spot!

You might get players arriving in dribs and drabs with blacked out windows trying to avoid being spotted.

Re: Cricket field stand

It's the manager who decides whether the players arrive by coach or they can just drive in individually. So theoretically if Parker goes mid season and is replaced by a manager who doesn't make the players arrive by coach then that's those plans down the pan. If they do arrive by coach most of them...
