It has happened in Scotland. Kilmarnock and I think St Mirren both postponed games and following investigation had been found to have breached protocols and the three points were given to opponents. Think the players may have been sharing lifts for example. Its mad, mad times.

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.

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

Seemingly the EFL, today, advised that SAFC wouldn’t have faced any punishment. Shows the EFL for the arseholes they are if they can somehow make that decision 24 hours after they couldn’t make it!! Bunch of ****ing amateurs.

They've probably only came out with it then after the media outcry by Johnson. Incompetent b@stards

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
 
Ipswich the latest to have Covid19 positives results. 6 members of the playing /coaching staff tested.

Aside from the health issues, from a football perspective, this gives Johnson 3 weeks to pass on to the players via zoom or teams exactly what he wants from the squad.

It also gives us time to recruit backroom staff etc in preparation for the second half of the season.

Sure, we'll be playing catch up, but but everyone will be more on the same page and getting in the POMO all the time!!!!
