MAKING A DIFFERENCE

CHAMPIONSHIP FOCUS
THE Covid-19 pandemic has affected many people’s lives in many different ways, but few to the extent of Oldham assistant coach Brendan Sheridan.
Back in April, the younger brother of former Leeds and Great Britain scrum-half Ryan spent two weeks in an induced coma.
Sheridan went from feeling “9/10 fine” to being rushed to hospital within a matter of hours, having shown none of the coronavirus symptoms before struggling to breathe one afternoon.
The otherwise healthy 41-year-old was placed on a ventilator and later needed to be packed in ice to reduce his fever while his family had to rely on updates from the hospital.
