Terrace Talk: Man United - A grim return to what has become our new normality

Mamma mia! “Large public events might be cancelled,” Britain’s health secretary glumly admitted to a brow-furrowed interviewer on Sunday morning, as various worst-case coronavirus scenarios were put to him. Every United fan in the country will have immediately had the same thought: “What? including all remaining Liverpool matches?! Talk about a silver lining ...”

Most of us would also have the good grace to feel guilty about such selfish tastelessness, I hasten to add. And few would dare argue that LFC wouldn’t deserve their trophy — if it’s ever actually awarded.
