Didn't we have one case? Well, that spread.

GAME OFF is the standard Twitter spiel for this, not sure why they did something different. Depth of field net shot is quite a nice one though, lots of clubs using the frankly inappropriate corner flag shot which should be saved for Club Statements.

They left it late to announce, the players (I assume) would have been tested this morning.

Don't quote me on this, but I think that is what Covid 19 does.

 

[Userorange]

I blame Ron.

Followed by Tom and Stan.

Thank you Sherlock. Maybe we shouldn't have played yesterday then.

I doubt the player with covid played yesterday ?

Only if you meet indoors without a window open, drink less than 5 pints, have an underlying belly roll and eat haggis on a Wednesday.

Gutted was looking forward to tomorrow’s game but taking a glass half full attitude it would have been tough to play again inside 48 hours and also by the time it rearranged we will have made signings. ?

 

[jarvisyeh]

That's a huge shame and probably won't help the short term finances of this club.

What happens with the planned protest walk?

 

[Wingnut]

i can’t see the Bromley game being on as well or even the Weymouth game its only going to get worse

I have no idea of the testing system so can't agree or even disagree, it could even have been caught from a Bromley player. Who knows........
