It's okay whining after the event but Charlie Austin could have self-isolated from the event and he chose to go of his own volition

Sporting events (at that point) were not ordered or required to close down. Risk assessments would have been made and a lot had been invested into the week itself, so it could be argued that they did nothing wrong by continuing

Once the message went out that large gatherings were to be discouraged (and later prevented) any events that went ahead from that point are the ones that need to be questioned

You both beat me to it.
It was indeed strange that it went ahead when everything else was cancelled though.

So how many more have got from there ???
