But realistically, it's probably the right outcome.
Yeah, I mean, listen, you don't really know.
Each club's individual.
You know, we've got great backing at our football club from top to bottom.
And there's probably no doubt whatsoever that we would have got that backing.
But yeah,
It's a tough one because you're essentially the money that it would have cost to put protocols and safety in place to finish the last six games.
It might outdo what an annual spend would be for a football club over a season in the championship.
So it's just not sustainable.
And I think common sense has prevailed in this instance.
I think one thing that this period probably tells you is enough is not being done, not by the club, the FA.
I think we can all do a lot, lot more.
But certainly in this period, it's been really, really interesting and something that you've had to learn a lot about because we've got 22 players and they're all individuals and everybody's different and handle it in a different way.
You've got some players at home on their own, you've got some players with families, you've got some players
in such different situations and it's really trying to understand each individual and sort of what they've got and what they're going through.
Thankfully, we have a great relationship with our club doctors and they've been massive support through this for some of our players.
I'd love to say yes, but I don't think this time any of us predicted.
It's been so unprecedented.
I think, you know, even I was thinking to myself, am I going to cope after a couple of days?
But I've absolutely loved sort of the break.
