There are reasons I gave up my ST before the announcement despite the cost. My wife and I are in a group with preconditions born (with the exception of my smoking) out of the passage of time and generic inheritance not self neglect.
It hurt but it felt like regaining some control since, even if hockey had returned in December, we would not have gone simply because too many people are careless or, selfishly, simply do not care.We did not want to take the risk.
Caerphilly (holiday returnees) & RCT (a day at the races) were people living their lives but impacting others. The pandemic will not reduce as long as this approach lasts and many more people will, at best, be inconvenienced or, at worst, die.
Not only that but the longer local lock downs (or worse) are caused by such behaviour (I excluded issues such as poor housing/working conditions as bring unavoidable but predictable) then 21/22 hockey could be at risk.
