Almost everyone had a bad day and was up and now 7 out of 10 are back over 400 for first time in many weeks. And Trafford is back in the 500s. With Stockport and Bury heading there at current rates too.
Stockport despite huge numbers today still extended its lead as the lowest Pop Score across the pandemic yet again V Trafford by another 6 today. The gap to Stockport is now 589.
Though in fact that is is no longer the real race as Bolton's run of good numbers have seen it sneak up on the rails and overtake Trafford's recent awful ones over the past few days to go seond and THEY are now the closest to catching Stockport just 458 behind but with a much better chance of doing so. Bolton are scoring far lower Pop Numbers daily at the moment than both Trafford and Stockport and on todays numbers could be the lowest in GM for the first time ever by Christmas.
At the other end Rochdale reduced its lead over Salford - who had the worst day - by 14 in one go to now be the highest across the pandemic by just 148.
Wigan also became the fourth GM member of the 19 K club today. Manchester will probably be number 5 on Thursday. Though Tameside could beat them there tomorrow with a bad day or make it five and six together on Thursday. Bury is likely to make it seven at the weekend!
Stockport should be te last to exit the 17Ks at the end of this week on current numbers,
