I can absolutely foresee a shitstorm about this if things aren't as bad as feared and we go on to beat the orcs on Sunday. There'll be weeks of moaning about close contacts and Rangers playing the system and conspiracy theories about players playing with covid.

But if we win with half our squad decimated I'd think I'd never stop laughing.

That lot will always have an excuse at the ready after we beat them. 

If we did end up beating them with half a side, we'll all be right there with you mate laughing

If 'close contacts' return a negative PCR test, they don't need to isolate. Am I reading that right from the post earlier?

Only if they are double jabbed.

Only if they are double jagged and it has been 2 weeks since they were jabbed

Needs to have been 2 weeks since the second jab as well

I hope all players are ok

 

How many positive test will it take to postpone the weekend

The money in the Conference league isn’t that much less than the EL, but no doubt the EL is going to be far sexier than the Conference.

Think we’d struggle selling conference tickets at EL prices or even selling them out tbh, dropping from CL to conference would be a huge kick in the balls 

[Gaffbear 4,104]

To be fair there are only a few we cant replace . Greegs,  alfie and kamara ..

[Swagger 8,348]

The fact the club haven’t named anyone tells me it’s bad. 

[Drunk and disorderly. 14,667]

I note there is no conformation of the players infected in our official statent. 

As long as Morelos is fit we will win  on Thursday imo. 

Sunday will be a tad harder with players missing.

411 formation, 5 nil.

Why would we tell opposition teams? Tell them our (433) formation too?

Think about it mate.

 

[andyhrfc 2,242]

We should remain positive.  

Whatever team we put out will have enough to get through on Thursday.

Sunday, there won’t be an empty seat in the house, no seats lost to segregation so 51000 Bears will be more up for it than ever.  No little corner for their players to hide, just a solid wall of red, white and blue.

Bring it on.

Thursday’s a worry, maybe need to park the bus although the opposition are finding it hard to score seemingly, we must get through that game.

Scum game we might have to hope for a draw but even a defeat can be turned round eventually

It's pretty much the Colts team from the Lowland League minus guys who have arrived recently like Charlie McCann, Tony Weston and Charlie Lindsay who are ineligible because they haven't been at the club long enough.

We wouldn't need to forfeit Sunday would be postponed. Only forfeit Cup games mate

What’s the isolation now ? Was the 10 days reduced ?

We would need to postpone the euro qualifier. You can’t play one and not the other now

[BlueVanguard 7,021]

Who ever the players are i hope they are okay and get well soon if they are having any symptoms. 👍

This lot struggled against the mighty Connah’s Quay.  We will be fine.

We could easy we get tested twice a week Friday on return to the country

I think you’d need to forfeit if you can’t field a squad. 

[superallysbears 7,844]

The buff has already had it and I know you can catch it again but there's definitely less chance of that happening, hopefully we have the buff available.

The precedent was set last season RE covid cases.

celtic were told to play the fixture or forfeit the game when they had their large outbreak, we would be the same.

There’s zero chance they postpone the game, even if it means we have an entire youth team out, we will have to play the fixture.

I’m sure I read it’s actual quite substantial in terms of the tv revenue/co-efficient if only one of the OF qualified! I don’t remember exact figures but it was something like an additional £6/7m! Which would be going straight to the tarriers!
