To be fair, there won’t be many who will have played the full 20 by new year at this rate.Not great, that’s two games behind we’ll be. Hopefully our players are all ok.
Jeff thinks he is part of the squad.Apparently you need to have 13 outfield players and at least one backup goalkeeper available and on that basis all of our games are due to be postponed until further notice unless Jeff registers himself as part of our squad.
True. Not great either way.To be fair, there won’t be many who will have played the full 20 by new year at this rate.
Not really, as long as our positive cases return negative tests in 7 days time they’ll be fine.Utd game will be off too if true,surely?
Nope, it’s not like things are going to improve imminently either (although hopefully it will be weeks not months for all of our sakes) so the fixture pile up is only going to get worse and given we have a smaller than average squad anyway it could become an issue.True. Not great either way.
Yes that’s my worry. I’d rather play a weakened team.Nope, it’s not like things are going to improve imminently either (although hopefully it will be weeks not months for al of our sakes) so the fixture pile up is only going to get worse and given we have a smaller than average squad anyway it could become an issue.
I’m more annoyed that I can’t rant about Watford than anything. (Genuinely).Does this spoil the Watford are unsafe ****ers narrative now?
Depends on whether he tested positive or not.Saiss last game for us for a while as well. Off to AFCON later next week.
That’s enough for me to book the train tickets.According to Tim Spiers.
If there’s many more weeks of this the PL will have to find a better solution than squeezing games in any gap that’s available as there won’t be enough midweeks to rearrange games for some teams once the European knockouts start again in February.Yes that’s my worry. I’d rather play a weakened team.
Different situation though isn’t it? We have a number of positive cases, Watford had a large number of unvaccinated players in self-isolation.Does this spoil the Watford are unsafe ****ers narrative now?

But the difference is the isolation. If you’re double vaccinated you don’t need to isolate unless you test positive yourself, whereas if you’re not vaccinated and deemed a close contact of a positive you do.Not really. People (bully included) blaming the unvaccinated players for games being postponed, but having the vaccine makes no difference to catching the thing.
Nothing is the same as usual at the moment. I'm sure we can all cope without a few matchesNo Wolves game over the festive period - it's just not the same.
