Momentum lost. Much rather it had gone ahead. After Xmas now and playing catch up on fixtures.

nottingram Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Quick reminder that only three years ago we postponed a fixture for “snow” against Cardiff because we had a few injuries. The safety of everybody has to come first and it is only frustrating because we’re in good form. There’ll be an investigation and anything untoward will be highlighted but for now you just have to take it at face value. If Rotherham buried it and half our squad got the illness that would be a much worse situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfs1ram Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Typical of Derby's luck this season - just as we were starting to play really well. Oh well will just have to play the Leeds semi recording again - always cheers me up !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ram59 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 It will be interesting to see if these other players that are feeling unwell are tested and what the results are. If non come back positive then action needs to be taken, otherwise any team with injury problems can come up with the covid get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I get your point, kind of, and if this was a meeting of the crown green bowls over 75's club, then I'd be on board. But I'm not really blaming anybody for being annoyed or irritated. So yes, it is potentially fatal, but so is a bee sting, but I'd still pmsl if I saw @Eatonram get stung on his ass my one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jourdan Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I, for one, am relieved. Jozefzoon would have had the best game of his career today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 It’s not that it has been postponed because of of covid it’s the lateness of the postponement 90 mins before kick off - also why weren’t all those other clubs affected by one positive test postponing their fixtures and the players and staff self isolating - different standards and all that but the EFL is about to commit itself to another big mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my work, if I'd had contact with someone who tested positive 3 days later, I would need to isolate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have older staff at the club, parents, grandparents etc. Not an issue with people being annoyed and disappointed, just amused by the Trump-like toddler selfishness of demanding punishment or conceding the points.

Wolfie20 imagine Neil Warnock/Steve Gibson's reaction if Middlesborough turned up at Pride Park to find the match postponed? They would be up in arms and complaining to the EFL. That's what makes me so angry/frustrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait, the game will now be played in January after Rotherham decide to make his move permanent, and then he really will have the game of his career.
