    It's not having games to mither about til after Xmas is going to be difficult, but think the club's made the right decision just hope we don't suffer at the hands of the EFL.

    Apparently the EFL are investigating earlier postponement in the season and have not concluded. Dont expect a quick resolution.

    It is interesting to read that, it appears Kilmarnock, as a club, didn't observe the league covid rules such as seating arrangements on the coach and pre match meals.
    I wonder whether the same sanctions can be applied against a club if players put themselves at risk or contract covid when they are not on club duty.

    Knowing the EFL it will be 2024 we are halfway through our first premiership season and they will dock us 40 points and demote us to league 2

    Just hope the clubs Covid protocol is robust enough

    Seems strange that a large delivery of PPE/sanatiser Was delivered to AOL yesterday and only one bus for games

    We win the league by a point and then we are docked just enough points to drop us out of the play offs......

    Celtic and Aberdeen got £30,000 fines, with £22,000 being suspended after their players broke restriction rules. Aberdeen had eight go clubbing and Boli from Celtic flew to Spain. I think Kilmarnock got a heavier slap as it was the club that had failed to adhere to the protocols whereas Aberdeen and Celtic had stuck to them, it was their players being bellends that caused the issue.

    Have to admit to being a bit surprised that only a handful of clubs have been affected up to now. Hope it stays that way but I think that's a long shot.

    Ok. So in theory, hopefully, if the players ****ed up this should be worse case scenario. It is the EFL though.

    Peterborough have canceled their next 3 games as well. They’re in the same boat we were on Tuesday - one positive case and others showing symptoms

    I agree with you, with this new variant of covid, it looks like clubs outside the Premier League will struggle to get the season done
