    Those are the criteria that schools, offices, shops etc are having to apply every day. There are very clear and straightforward and not open to interpretation.

    I agree that McCann shouldn't have had to make a decision on the hoof last night. However he is responsible as part of the management team for not having a clear policy and set of protocols drawn up for such an eventuality.


    It's not like anyone in the club's management structure couldn't see that this situation might arise.

    It was entirely predictable.

    Indeed, it will happen again.


    They've been studying at the Dido Harding School of Leadership, I guess.

    Given the number of useless penalties I would prefer our goalkeeper to stand up when they take a penalty. Obviously you have to vary it when it becomes known.

    Agree. It was embarrassing. Both from Burnsey and from McCann.
    Yes, it was relevant and important, but 10 minutes or so of the same stuff? Ask the questions, then move on ... or more to the point, be moved on by the interviewee (McCann).
    McCann's handling of Burnsey's ongoing questionning & opinionating was very poor;. Can you imagine other managers taking that from Burnsey?
    McCann needs (more) media training as his weakness in interviews is not helping his cause one bit (imo).

    I read that the West Ham players travelled in three coaches and socially distanced in them.

    Even with all the controls that exist in them, the basis of the track and trace scheme is that if I go in a well run pub, and obey all the rules, if someone else that has been in is found to be positive for the virus, I have to self isolate. I'm struggling to see the difference to the players here.

    As I have said before, they note the time you enter but not the time you leave. Madness!
    I suppose they think you may have caught if off an uncleaned table. If so they should note the table number.

    They have said West Ham's game with Arsenal on Sunday will go ahead.

    They said this morning that West Ham's game at Arsenal will be going ahead on Sunday so why shouldn't our game go ahead this weekend?

    Zoe Ball is another example of that.

    What if someone who tests positive says I was in town all day shopping, it’s a female obviously! More precisely a Meadowhall or Trafford centre

    It could have been a miserable, hen-pecked specimen of a male who was accompanying a female as well.

    Given the numbers of positive results in football, whatever system they use in football doesn't seem to be working very well, or the test isn't accurate.

    You don’t unless you have had ‘contact’ as per the stuff above. Track & trace have criteria so you’d need to be very close in public to be told to isolate

    So being in the same pub or restaurant is just the starting point?
    The details taken are then used to see who has contact with others?

    Lets hope the descent into mid table also-rans doesn't start on Saturday. Need to kick this result into the long grass and focus on the bread and butter stuff.

    Don't know. But going by some of the hysterical reactions on here it should not be played.
