The government on Monday asked those over the age of 70 to minimise social contact. Hodgson, 72, is the Premier League's oldest boss and is affected by the new guidelines.

England's top flight was suspended on March 13 due to the coronavirus pandemic and has been put on hold indefinitely until the virus has been suitably contained and it is safe for players to return.

Hodgson has reportedly told friends that he does not believe he will be allowed to guide his team from the touchline or even take training sessions, according to The Sun.

Hodgson, who turns 73 in August, could be unable to join up with Palace staff once the season resumes due to government advice on social distancing for those over 70.

Crystal Palace are confident that Roy Hodgson will not be barred from managing on safety grounds amid the coronavirus crisis when the Premier League resumes.

Six new 1-aroyl-4-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)piperazines have been prepared, using coupling reactions between benzoic acids and N-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)piperazine. There are no significant hydrogen bonds in the structure of 1-benzoyl-4-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)piperazine, C18H20N2O2, (I). The mol­ecules of 1-(2-fluoro­benzo­yl)-4-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)piperazine, C18H19FN2O2, (II), are linked by two C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form chains of rings, which are linked into sheets by an aromatic π–π stacking inter­action. 1-(2-Chloro­benzo­yl)-4-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)piperazine, C18H19ClN2O2, (III), 1-(2-bromo­benzo­yl)-4-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)piperazine, C18H19BrN2O2, (IV), and 1-(2-iodo­benzo­yl)-4-(4-meth­oxyphen­yl)piperazine, C18H19IN2O2, (V), are isomorphous, but in (III) the aroyl ring is disordered over two sets of atomic sites having occupancies of 0.942 (2) and 0.058 (2). In each of (III)–(V), a combination of two C—H⋯π(arene) hydrogen bonds links the mol­ecules into sheets. A single O—H⋯O hydrogen bond links the mol­ecules of 1-(2-hy­droxy­benzo­yl)-4-(4-meth­oxy­phen­yl)piperazine, C18H20N2O3, (VI), into simple chains. Comparisons are made with the structures of some related compounds.

The U.S. National Academy of Sciences and the Royal Society, the national science academy of the U.K., released a joint publication today in Washington, D.C., that explains the clear evidence that humans are causing the climate to change, and that addresses a variety of other key questions commonly asked about climate change science.

Forest root systems increase soil strength and stability, thus protecting mountainous regions against gravitational natural hazards, such as landslides. However, tree roots are affected by factors such as soil properties, climate and disturbances, such as timber-harvesting or wildfire — and, as a result, a forest’s stabilising effect can vary greatly. This study of fire-disturbed beech forests explores how this effect changes over time. The results reveal that forests which have suffered moderate and severe wildfires completely lose their protective function within 15 years, placing those regions at high risk of landslide for up to 50 years after the fires.

Intensive trawling could turn seafloor ecosystems into ‘deserts of the sea’, new research warns. The study found that continuous bottom trawling for shrimp in a deep-sea Spanish canyon has damaged the foundations of marine ecosystems by dramatically reducing seafloor biodiversity and nutrients in sediment.
