There’s a natural week’s break between now and Boxing Day. No need to shut down now, just see where we are at the end of next week.
The Carabao may have to become 1 leg semi finals.

Maybe it’s Because if in a squad of 25 50% of them are not vaccinated and one person gets a positive result those who are not vaccinated will have to isolate for 10 days where as a fully vaccinated player can still train keep getting test and if it stays negative after I think 5 days they are fine to be picked plus they’ve been training and be fit to play!
It’s why in Italy games are not being postponed because 98% of footballers in Italy have been fully vaccinated…

Just cancel the World Cup until 2023 and this season can go on until July if necessary.

If I was running the show, I’d have cancelled all this weekend’s games and had a mini-football-circuit breaker and told all clubs to isolate until the Boxing Day fixtures/Christmas Day training.

Omnicron has only just started in Italy (with only 84 cases so far) so they are behind us in the curve. I do agree though they will be better placed with so many footballers jabbed over there. It does mean they can be confident their players will suffer only minor illness.Maybe it’s Because if in a squad of 25 50% of them are not vaccinated and one person gets a positive result those who are not vaccinated will have to isolate for 10 days where as a fully vaccinated player can still train keep getting test and if it stays negative after I think 5 days they are fine to be picked plus they’ve been training and be fit to play!

What does interest me is what are the insurance companies doing? These world-class players are insured for hundreds of millions of pounds because of the career-threatening injury risk they face. Long Covid could finish a career for anyone. You would think the insurers would be demanding that all players are vaccinated. The insurance business is built on risk and the risk from Covid is much greater than the risk of vaccine side effects.
