Arsenal game set to be postponed

[sillytuna]

So they test negative in a weeks time, leaving no time to recover or train, brilliant.

Yep I'm not sure how it'd work but I guess players would become available on the 1st or 2nd only.

 

[NottsWolves]

It will depend on who’s tested positive. As someone has pointed out, it could well be the goal keepers, and that would do it for us.

 

[wolf1975]

Not great, that’s two games behind we’ll be. Hopefully our players are all ok.

Jade. Why would our players not be ok?

 

[wolf1975]

I understand your point. I just find it unfair that the unvaccinated get the blame for it when actually as has now been proved, it doesnt matter if your entire squad has had all 3 jabs, this **** will stop games regardless.

This coming from someone who is vaccinated myself.

This in spades.

Vaccination is personal choice.

People seem to be forgetting that the issue was with the top 4 groups.

We can be poorly you know.

 

[wolf1975]

Exactly

People like Bully

 

[Mardenboroughs Shoulder]

Just award a 3 - 0 win to Arsenal?

 

[NottsWolves]

Unless they're amongst the ones who've tested positive.

Bit **** I know, but it's everywhere. I've been extra cautious since the start of the pandemic. Was wearing a mask before it was advised, wearing one constantly at work after others had stopped (though a fair few have recently started again) and last Thursday first symptoms started to show.

Thankfully so far been nothing worse than a bad cold as only double jabbed. Was planning getting the booster over the holidays but that's out of the window now.

Hope you continue to feel ok.

I was fine, just had a runny nose and loss of smell. All ok after a week of getting my test result. But like you need to wait to wait to get my booster.

But unfortunately more people will get it, the only way to avoid it is to completely shut yourself away.

It doesn’t matter what the club do, the players have kids in school, they can very easily pick it up from there.

I do think a break of some description could come in very soon, or games will be behind close doors.

 

[NewarkWolf]

There goes that massive advantage we had of them playing less than 48 hours before. Ffs

They'll have smashed us a new one regardless! They're on fire at the minute!

 

[CelebrityWolf]

So much for all our squad being vaccinated then! Does this mean when things get back to normal everyone will be cancelling games en masse for winter flu?

That is a pretty random reach right there? Are you suggesting players should just be playing through covid?

 

[BlahBlah]

Not really. People (bully included) blaming the unvaccinated players for games being postponed, but having the vaccine makes no difference to catching the thing.

It reduces the risk of catching it, doesn't stop it. Not leaving ANY distancing or masking restrictions has made it harder to control numbers...the whole world knows you need a combination of measures, at least until everybody has caught it and it hasn't overwhelmed the heath services.
This was always going to be the pay off.....the Government does F all until Christmas, then says it has no choice but to start cancelling stuff again .

Who overwhelms the health service?

Top 4 Groups - 80-90%.

So once they were offered vaccine why weren't we back to normal?

Remember Hancocks 15m Jabs to Freedom?

 

[Bostin]

As if this period between Xmas and New Year wasn’t depressing enough

 

[Kenny Hibbitt is my hero]

No but I heard he had a vicious shot and wore size 3 boots?

 

[Fifty Niner]

Not at all. Games have been called off before when sickness has gone through a team. Just suggesting that Covid mania has gotten out of all proportion. The new variant is reportedly much milder than the original yet the whole country is panicked into restrictions.

 

[JadeWolf]

Just to point out, based on last week we were down to 16 senior players including 2 goalkeepers.


Goalkeepers: Sa, Ruddy

Defenders: Hoever, Marcal, Coady, Semedo, Kilman, Saiss

Midfielders: Jordao, Neves, Moutinho, Dendoncker

Forwards: Raul, Podence, Trincao, Traore

Would only take a couple of positive cases to push us below the 13 and 1 threshold.

 

[MrwulfAndrew]

I would have been willing to make up the numbers but im positive for the 2nd time (also double vaccinated) and i have eaten too much food over christmas. These are obviously the only 2 reasons why i cant play for wolves.

Might one suggest such a threadbare squad is supplemented with fresh talent during the upcoming January transfer window?

Let’s hope so!

Because they could live with people who are vulnerable?

Crux of this whole Covid situation which some people still haven't got, it's not about an individual who might cope with it easily, it's about everyone connected to that individual who might not

But aren't they vaccinated?

Your logic says life is over as the vaccine doesn't work and we need to protect the vulnerabe by shutting down life?

When do we get back to living life?

Why did you not worry about viruses before?

We don’t like it but the time off will benefit the squad and the injured.

No games till the window opens and we can play the new players

Wonder if we’ve seen Adama play for us for the last time?

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Liverpool didn't 'smash us.'
Manchester City didn't 'smash us.'
Chelsea didn't 'smash us.'

So on what do you base that statement?

 

[maws]

Really? I’m triple vaccinated, totally believe there’s a covid and I’ve had it. But ffs, the deaths are no worse than from seasonal flu, we have to live life’s, suicides will totally rise and cancer deaths will too. Sorry people can’t see this side affect.

 

[VancouverWolf]

Please explain.

Well, with our small squad and some injuries, a couple of postponements might be ok.

Amazes me that after two years this **** still needs explaining. Also where has anybody suggested life is over, we are talking a few footy games because players have contracted covid and the delta variant is still about as well.

 

[Streathamwolf]

If everyone in the country had had the vaccine, there would be less Covid about. Hence the urgency with the boosters.

A commonly held erroneous belief. Also, the booster doesn't work for Omicron

It was worse in Sept - Please explain what i'm missing. Why weren't games called off with a lower vaccination programme and higher figures?

Hope you don’t get any worse, mate.

I’ve come into contact with 3 people who have had it (1 was round our house 2 days before she got symptoms and another I spent the day with driving for work a day before he had symptoms) and I haven’t caught it (test everyday).

I wonder whether some people are less likely to catch it because I SHOULD have caught it.

People forget so many things.

The top 4 groups were the apparent NHS issue. That is why they were priortised with the "vaccine"

Now apparently everybody is at risk.

Plus 85% have had one dose. Are you honestly sating 15% are the issue.

Come on give your head a wobble,

 

[Monketron]

These postponed games won't be much of an issue for teams like Wolves not in Europe, but if this carries on then it's going to cause an insane schedule for teams who are still in Europe and go into the later rounds of the cup competitions.
