Hoping for Celtic's 9-in-a-row and playing with Lego - how EK star is coping with the coronavirus football shutdown

Today marks one week since football around the globe was forced to shutdown due to the Coronavirus outbreak.

But already players are going stir-crazy with no games, no training, no football to watch - and some having to self-isolate.

It's also impacted on everyone's daily lives on an unprecedented scale.

The sporting world is on lockdown for the foreseeable future, so we wondered: how are Lanarkshire's footballers coping with an unexpected break from the game?

In the first of our videos charting how players are getting along, East Kilbride midfielder and Stranraer hero, Sean Winter, tells us how the shutdown has been for him and his family.

We ask what he's doing to pass the time and whether UEFA's deadline to finish the football season by June 30 is achievable in the current circumstances.

Winter, who has made well over 100 appearances for Lowland League Kilby, also offers up his TV picks to get you through.
