Just to add to my last post, on a more serious note, that whatever happens over the next couple of weeks we have been reminded today that it is only a game. The news this morning that the young rugby league referee Chris Leatherbarrow has apparently (though not yet confirmed) taken his own life at the tragically young age of 26, leaving a wife and 4 year old daughter. The whys and wherefores are for another time but his family must be devastated. So, so sad.
RIP Chris
