Everton (A) | Game Postponed

[SWP's back]

If the authorities are so keen to keep football going then now may be a good time to vaccinate the clubs they’re forcing to carry on playing.

Just shows the safety of football is not that great. How can they only get results so close to a game ?

Players involved would be close with other players & family & potentially even at Everton already.

Not the best pr for the club or league this but I will take a 2 week break for our players right now.

This was always going to happen to somebody, just happens to be us. There'll be a huge drive from the other clubs to get vaccines for all players and staff now, could get a bit political.

Think I read they were getting tested twice a week, so results will always be close to game days

Shame, was all geared up for the game - beers in the fridge, ah well, it'll work for Mandalorian too. Zaha just scored for Palace.

Was getting nicely set in front of the fire with a beer or two lined up. Might stick qpr video on after chelski game

Can anyone recommend any good films?

"Contagion" on Netflix?

All or nothing, amazon prime

This is why it was the most stupid idea to play internationl friendlies all over the world during these times. We could have had 1 game a season and it would have been much less risky for other clubs as well.

Fully agree plus this stupid Xmas schedule is criminal for me. How many games over a short period of time. All about the money once again

We played Newcastle only 48 hours ago so I’m guessing they were infectious then which just shows how crazy this schedule is during a pandemic.

This I absolutely agree with

Fucked my fantasy football team right up this

I'm gutted for you.

I said this would happen, going to have to postpone or extend the season

Should postpone the season in fairness to all concerned.

Madness to play games when players and staff are contracting it and its so rampant in the UK at present.

here in the AFL we postponed the season for 2 months even though the spread was minimal compared to what it is in the UK.
