I agree. I want sport, and RL especially to come back tomorrow but when you balance it up against what’s going on in the world there’s no contest. Honestly for me the season should be scrapped and we go again in 2021. Perhaps run the CC later on in the year rather than the league, I’m near certain Wembley would be a sell out for the final regardless of who got there. I know I’d 100% go if I could get it off work.
Goes without saying that that depends on the situation at the time and if it’s not safe, it doesn’t happen.
I think if we do have any form of season resumption before 2021 then it will have to be a round robin league format to give a guaranteed number of games for all clubs taking part. The problem with running the cup only is that although a final with a crowd able to attend (and that may not be possible this year at all) may get a good attendance the most games any club would get is 4 (and only two would get that many) as we are already at the last 16 stage. Most teams will get fewer as the competition progresses and they get knocked out and Huddersfield along with many non SL clubs would get no more games as they are already knocked out of the cup.
