I wouldn’t necessarily expect them to pause the league, but I do envisage fixtures being rearranged at relatively short notice to plug the gaps and get games out of the way for those who see games called off because of cases in the opposition rather than themselves. It was quite common when they were getting the Super League season completed and has happened in non-league to a certain extent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of postponements, especially if they carry on for a few weeks might make things worse. I see Newcastle have a couple with long covid too- wouldn't imagine too many clubs would want to risk similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I've just noticed that two Rugby Union games have been called off due to one team having high Covid numbers & the win awarded to the team without the infection. Seems a very odd solution to me & could encourage clubs to hide positive test results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted December 29, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted December 29, 2020 Surely this season, we’d be allowed to bring forward a normal midweek fixture if we wanted with another team out the cup who also has no game like we did Southend. Not sure if any of them teams exist though. No idea how many teams in our league are still in the cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marple whites Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 And Covid is certainly kicking in now - 7 out of 12 games off in league 1 tonight because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dusan nikolic Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Hopefully before they charge ahead and rearrange this at short notice we can get some signings on board and bedded in . I'd much sooner we played this without any square pegs still in the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hughmungus Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Sadly this means Evatt may last another month, and even worse be allowed to shackle the club with contracts for players no one else wants. But who is the fool as I am still giving the club £100 pm for tickets to games I can’t go to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
