Great to see the players and club working together. This is not easy stuff.

We wont be the only club going down this route and hopefully something can be sorted out.

We are only at the start of this, its only been a week since the original announcement of vulnerable groups to self isolate and unless everyone at the club is on the same wavelength it could make getting through it much harder.

Had to happen for a club like Leeds and will be happening at many companies who want to try and retain staff and find a way through this rather than just lay everyone off.

It's heartening to hear stories of staff/players buying into this, nice story from Brighton of staff and players checking in with elderly in community to make sure they're ok.

Hope Bielsa and his coaches are able to keep their chins up being away from their friends and family and having to stay in.

All my local courts are closed, impossible to practice anywhere, my son is going up the wall as he's normally training 3 hours per day, it must be really tough for the players to just not be able to train as normal, sitting on bike at home is not the same, and your general fitness goes really quickly.

All agreed evidently. Well done all involved.

I’ve just renewed my Membership off the back of this. I was hanging on but ALAW?
