COVID-19 Rugby Nil.

As a virus pandemic was declared the first effects impacted MRUFC when their home match with Wirral was postponed because several Wirral players had tested positive for the virus. Although rugby wa played elsewhere this postponement was followed almost immediately by an unprecedented announcement from HQ; “Last night the RFU, acting upon government advice, suspended all professional and community rugby in England from today 17th March 2020 until Tuesday 14th April, subject to continued review.”. As we now know that was that for rather longer than the initial 4 weeks.
