    Football COVID

    It’s not going to go away any time soon, why is there still that stupid rule on squad size?
    Let’s hope we don’t have any games postponed
    Think it’s August time when Millers players get their 2nd jab

    All the best to Neil Etheridge

    I thought the reduced squad size was designed to make clubs live within their means and not to have big squads and big wage bills.

    Also to encourage them to have more younger players on the books that aren't included in the squad size rule

    I'm expecting a long Christmas break for football to reduce covid infections.

    I think it will be rife before the season starts. Last time, people in care homes and hospitals were catching it. Now it's the younger one's because they are not vaccinated.

    Clubs and the authorities will cover it up this time round and try and get the games on.

    It's the same suspects in the same areas causing the issues, but HM Government dance around the issue so as to not upset the race relations zealots

    Schools and areas with the highest population densities.

    Just to point out that this is where another footy based topic turned to the usual politics by usual suspect with his topical crowbar!
