cityrebel 2,960 Posted September 4, 2020 With the restrictions slowly being eased, has anyone ventured out to any sporting events. I have attended three speedway meetings at Lydd, Scunthorpe and King's Lynn. I have also been to two non league football matches at Leatherhead and Guildford City. It's been great to try and get back to some kind of normality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piotr Pyszny 206 Posted September 4, 2020 (edited) Eleven cricket matches - various leagues - since the last week in July, when the sport was able to start its season. The 12th, in Newcastle, will be tomorrow. Most have felt slightly 'unreal'. Little evidence of social distancing amongst spectators, I'm afraid to say.

moomin man 76 171 Posted September 5, 2020 No speedway for me in the UK so far, but I was fortunate enough to see the Finnish Championship at Seinajoki and the Finnish League match at Kuusankoski in July. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris116 755 Posted September 5, 2020 Since we came out of lockdown I have had three meals with my wife in restaurants and a Stock Car meeting at Aldershot which is just under an hour by train and then a 30 minute walk. Sadly I have not got to a speedway meeting and doubt if I will this year. My wife normally does four or five trip abroad each year and will not be doing any for the time being. Both of us are getting rather fed up with life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
