It would be odd for the club to announce a match day offer if they knew a cancellation were imminent

Doubt the EFL will say no. Wouldn't be a good look to refuse it.

Not sure what the rules are with covid cancellations. Looking at the premier league for example Leicester were refused a cancellation until today despite asking for one earlier this week. It’s only because they’ve had more cases this morning that it’s finally been cancelled.

They played QPR at Loftus Rd on 5th December
QPR have had a major Covid outbreak since then and closed their training ground
I heard Stoke have half a dozen unavailable due to Covid
If they're saying they caught it at QPR I guess the EFL will find it difficult to refuse to postpone our game

Don't know tbh. I just wildly speculated with no knowledge of the rules.

Apologies.

The UEFA and EPL guidelines are if there are 14 fit senior players then the game should go ahead. While it's now been called off due to even more cases the EPL said no to calling off the Leicester vs. Spurs game when Leicester had 9 players out.

1) How can they say where they caught it? If they can they need to get in touch with Health Security England to tell them how ;)

2) As I said the EPL has said no to Leicester when they presented 9 cases.

It will probably be called off but the league has rules and it really should stick to them

My lad will be happy as he can’t go as he has covid, but if it goes to midweek I might struggle to get the night off.

Yep, the most wonderful time of the year and the world has kicked us to our knees and slit our throats once again.

Fuck it, December should be pushed back to March and we start Xmas again.
