samtheram83 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Gutted! Finally off work and get chance to watch a game this season. Was going to be a nice pick me up after breaking my hand midweek playing footy. We’re in good form and had the chance to move out of the bottom three. ???

Rample Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Can't imagine our lot being too pleased if they've travelled up there. Sounds like Radio Derby had no notice and only found out when they got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Something very dodgy about calling it off so late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 7 minutes ago, James Pond said: Lee Johnson Sunderland Manager said in the week that if they fail to play the game at this late stage they could forfeit the game Its the EFL who have postponed the fixture due to one player testing positive and some others showing symptoms for Rotherham and in due course they will arrange a new fixture - we won’t be awarded this game but it has set a prescient for other games in the future especially if you have a lot of injuries ( just like Rotherham have currently) so if a team don’t fancy it cancel with an hour and a half to go with a false negative test - just saying it’s possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 1 positive test in today's squad bubble this morning apparently. EFL will investigate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC27 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Couldn’t have come at a worse time, we’re finally hitting a bit of form and we might now stop playing for essentially 10 days. Physiologically if we’re 6 points behind again it’s not going to be good for the team. I don’t know enough about the situation but is it both sets of player or just one team? If it’s just them then we could be playing sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not, but it's hardly the highlands of Scotland, is it? An hour and a half up the road, they'll be back at home sat on the sofa with their feet up by the time the rest of the games finish.

MK-Ram Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 By coincidence, a guy I know who works at Rotherham was in at the ground really early today, so this just all seems very bizarre. Obviously it's better to play without risk so games should be postponed/cancelled where there is that risk, however this is very poor and I hope the league look into the circumstances here. Rotherham, surely, must have known they had players reporting symptoms and having had tests. They can't have had multiple players report that this morning, surely?

Ghost of Clough Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 The EFL have to announce this as a forfeit. Anything else and we could see the Covid situation being abused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve How Hard? Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Surprised nobody has insinuated an EFL conspiracy to derail our upturn in form. Ok, I'll be that man. The f@#$ing Bamfords. ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is it possible they could have only known an hour before kick off? Because our world beating test and trace system just delivered Tuesdays test results? ?

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 There's no way this game should be cancelled this late due to Covid at championship level. Must be a huge failing somewhere down the line. We really should be awarded these points. 6 or 7 games off today . Come the end of the year I can see an enforced month break coming.
