    Lax protocol enforcement?

    That must be difficult to prove retrospectively unless it’s a really obvious incident or somebody has reported them

    Any organisation faced with an EFL investigation would make sure current practices are following the guidance

    Initial response is worry, when are we going to get the games in? Surely we will have to try and play during the international break with anyone who we have games called off with? If they want to of course

    Bad luck and just chance ? Probably

    But outsiders are bound to ask “ what the hell is happening there?”

    Why at Rotherham but not at local rivals?

    What makes them different?
    To be fair, I think we would probably be asking questions if this was happening at one of our relegation rivals.
    Also, won't it seem a bit strange if none of the Wednesday players now test positive considering the virus must have been rife in our camp when we played them?

    Can’t imagine teams with players away on international duty will be too keen on playing or give up the break to rest their players.

    Not a chance I would have thought tbh pal.

    One of the things Grimsby players did was still went to training ground and played darts and games etc..which Holloway thought would be good idea to keep up team spirit whilst they wernt playing or training....

    I agree. No-one is going to make it easy for us are they? Why should they?

    Have we got a super spreader of this virus within the club?

    Some might be glad to play in international week, they still get rest of week off, they still have to play us at some point meaning putting extra pressure/games on them

    I agree, we wouldn't if it were on the other foot. I'm just trying to see a way in which we can fulfill the games. Whether we stay up or not we have to at least play all the games. Other teams should really look at this as an opportunity to gain ground on us, we could be miles behind time we play again. Even with 300 hundred games in hand. I just want us to be able to fulfil the games at some stage. The season wont be moved for us.
