it does not help having 8 games in the month, potentially with isolation period 3 games would have to be postponed then the club has to try and catch them up to fulfill obligations...there is also no saying that further cases could crop up down the line. this is why the EFL should have sorted some solid guidelines and allowed some leeway for clubs to make a choice and not feel they were taking a hit.
correct, we had the grandbairn here who tested positive, we all tested negative but still had to do the isolation (was the last of the 12 days as well) so any of those will have to miss training sessions and at least miss saturday and tuesday games.
