Re: Covid and Fixtures
 
what gets me with all this is the cost of testing people for the virus. i admit its an area i know sod all about but it seems funny where the oxford jab costs 200 times less than the test which looks like shoving something up your nose and down your throat.

Testing twice a week among all 72 EFL clubs and funded by the PFA finally some sense.

Testing is good news, but as Mr.T has stated previously - we are all the E.F.L....

Thought they said you had to play if you had 14 players available or forfeit the tie, yet Shrewsbury v Southampton is postponed mixed messages again as Derby said they are prepared to play youth in their affected tie.

Villa due to play Friday, they should have to play kids - like Liverpool did last year - or forfeit the tie!

Shrews should have been the same!!!!!!!!

It is becoming a joke :(

Not becoming it is a joke behind the curve as they put it all the time.

Looks like Shrewsbury will be out of the competition as they can't raise enough players will still receive their prize money though.
