EFL Statement: Covid-19 test results

Hells Bells.

Is that directed at my comment or at the BBC Report? Either we are doing something badly wrong or the other teams are faking it which would seem unlikely but not impossible.

[Nardendee]

Not you CAM just a reaction to the news. This is what I would call a super spreader event. All it takes is 1 host amongst a tight knit group.

I could cry for our team. We don’t deserve this and hope we stick it to the lot of em......on the field that is.

Let's hope we are past the worst and the recovery rate is rapid.Apparently in Sheffield and Rotherham there were more cases recorded last week than anywhere else in the country.It has gone down since and improved.

Maybe this is your answer ,no great conspiracy or fault on the club's part.

They had gone down last week.....they will be up this week as the incubation period of education settings comes into play...

I find that hard to believe, i know someone who is at Hilsborough, although not first team, who has had to isolate.

[rolymiller]

Warne saying that only he is isolating now everyone else is thru it.

Spoke to a contact at the EFL. They are actively pursuing the possibility that rival club(s) spiked the Millers. Otherwise hard to explain how a club following all the protocols has the highest percentage of Covid cases ever recorded while all other clubs have none. Likely that they will introduce a special dispensation so that when Warney and Barker are feeling up to it they can arrange to play games at any time they fancy up until August.
