Not many tickets left in the East and West stands which should make for a good atmosphere.  Hope game does not get called off.

Thanks for reminder Yareet, forgot all about parking, normally park in airport but unsurprisingly sold out. Just down the road at the Makro Park & Ride for £8.

There is free parking at the Castles in the Air BB and at the ski slope, it’s a short walk to the free shuttle at Trafford centre

I thought the exact same the last 24 hours :( Was hopeful up till then as the clubs hadnt mentioned anything andthe countdown things were appearing on Twitter and the likes, but the last days news has really made me think we will be locked down very soon.
Fingers crossed this weekends match will happen before that

The telegraph is reporting that there are plans for football games to be played behind closed doors. I would expect Rugby to have to follow suit...

Quote from: Telegraph
All football matches face being played behind closed doors
All Premier and Football League matches could be played behind closed doors as soon as this weekend as part of the government's expected increased response to the coronavirus crisis.

Manchester City's clash against Arsenal became the first top-flight fixture to fall victim due to fears surrounding coronavirus, but it is thought there are plans to stage all games behind closed doors.

The government are expected to shift to the 'delay' phase today which is likely to impact football. According to a report in the Times, all matches in the top flight as well as those in the lower tiers are likely to take place with no supporters present.

It is claimed that all Premier League ticket holders for individual clashes will be able to stream coverage of matches in their homes instead.

Supporters of clubs in the Football League, meanwhile, would be able to watch action from the lower tiers using iFollow streams.

Pubs will not be allowed to show games to avoid congestion of people and Premier League fixtures will not be shown live in the Saturday 3pm slot.

Juventus star Daniele Rugani became the highest-profile footballer to have tested positive for the virus last night, with the Serie A club confirming that those who have come into contact with the defender will also be checked.

All sport in Italy has been postponed until April 3 in an attempt to combat the virus.

The NBA season, meanwhile, has been suspended "until further notice" after an unnamed player from the Utah Jazz tested positive for coronavirus.

The league was advised of the positive test shortly before the scheduled game between the Utah Jazz and Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night.

The NBA said in a statement: "The NBA is suspending game play following the conclusion of tonight's schedule of games until further notice.

"The NBA will use this hiatus to determine next steps for moving forward in regard to the coronavirus pandemic."[/url]

Suspect this go ahead but that our home game the week after will be behind closed doors or cancelled and same with game v sarries at spurs. Pure guess work obviously

Nicola Sturgeon is apparently going to recommend cancelling events with 500 or more as from Monday. I'd say we're likely to see an initial indefinite postponement of games for a few weeks, then depending on how the pandemic is progressing either a cancelling of the season or games being played behind closed doors.

It may be a sell out but there's still tickets available on the Sale website.  Perhaps they've sold out the East and West stands but there's certainly tickets available on the North and South stands.
