Everton (A) | Game Postponed

[hilts]

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.

They can wait their turn like everyone else mate.

 

[paulchapo]

Do these scummy scouse bastards really have no limit to how low they will stoop? Fucking vile.

No, history tells us they really don't.

 

[Blue Maverick]

Surely if this more highly contagious strain is now rife everywhere then I see more games being called off.

And this is the problem, if everyone get it and cancel games they start having a backlog, then Chelsea get it and so on. Before you know it come April you are playing every 48 hours to finish all the games, then European games start getting cancelled, they need to cancel the Euros and any internationals until the vaccine is distributed to everyone, the season could end again in July.

 

[Blue Mist]

With the cup final already rescheduled surely we can postpone our semi

Not sure what you are getting at. Are you saying I shouldn't watch xhamster until tomorrow?

 

[Ribchester]

Absolutely true. I see no reason why the schedule is so tight during the holidays. This was bound to happen. It's so depressing ffs

Surely if ever there was a case for a winter break, this was it, especially with vaccines being imminent. Money grabbing whores at the FA and UEFA,

 

[ctwrd]

It’s Chelsea and Everton that get the real advantage, Chelsea knowing they can go at their game today full pelt in the likelihood that Sunday is called off and Everton in their next game well rested.
Idea that we benefit by resting now only to get further games elsewhere is nonsense

 

[heslops barnet]

I guess your assuming our players contacted it on the field?

Surely, every club would have an outbreak if it was from pitch snot

no but it’s a consideration......

 

[Dodge]

What did you expect to read from knobheads on the hys?

Ive never visited the HYS page mate.

It was on the main BBC Sport in match commentary page for Palace v Leicester.

The bottom line is that the most important thing is that all our players and anyone else who has an illness makes a full recovery. But as we have seen from the tweet from the “journalist” some will see this as an opportunity to slag us off. To be clear at the moment is this just a case of the game being rearranged? Or could the club be sanctioned? I can’t see how but regardless in what is a bit of a farce of a season the players health comes first.

 

[Blue Maverick]

You mean tier 4 London that no one is supposed to leave or go to, well fuck me!

 

[HolisticJim]

Talk sport reporting thst we picked it up from an outbreak in a hotel the team stayed at recently.

 

[give it to gordon]

Surprise surprise I said at the time it was wrong for City to come onto a tier 4 area

Did you see how shit Chelsea was against Arsenal? Made sure you keep away from the edge of your seat.

 

[chaddblue]

And of course the BBC give a platform to scum bags like this. And we wonder why large swaithes of the population aren’t taking this seriously when this is our national broadcaster.

If you think that’s bad take a look at twitter

 

[Eccles Blue]

Does anyone mind if I still get pissed?

If you lot are getting drunk then I’m overdosing on Sherry Trifle!! ;-)

Damn if it's the new strain

Apparently it wasn't city who asked for it to be called off. City reported the positive test results to the FA as per protocol and the FA/Premier League cancelled the match.

Therfore I cannot see how we can be sanctioned.

 

[Sid C]

And what's the betting this 'journalist' has been 'working' from home

I wouldn’t call that working.

Premier League board convened and decided to postpone due to health concerns, at city's instigation.

If they punish us, they'll look idiotic. They surely won't.
