Where teams have covid in the squad games need to be cancelled,we wouldn't have wanted the disease to be spread to our players. Keep the virus up north not our fault that the Northerners partied in the streets and ignored guidelines . Oh god ! this is Trump talk ! We're all British ! We're all people. It's certainly quite an ignorant opinion with no substance behind it.

Time to have a chicken pox party. Ridiculous that a pro game gets called off because off testing. 1000’s of games will be played this weekend. As a complete guess there will be at least 500,000 players playing competitive football min. About 1% of them are being tested, only because they in the higher league have too. I personally know a ex sh** head (he’s still a sh** head)Tested positive, That’s the only reason he knows he had it. No symptoms. New slogan is simple. Protect the Elderly, Protect the vulnerable, Chuffing crack on. You don’t want to be protected, don’t shield. Your choice. Your friend may have had no symptoms, but I know people that have caught the virus months ago and are still struggling with the effects to the point they’ve had to take time off work. This is very much a virus to take seriously especially considering that middle age men, probably the largest demographic to use this forum, are one of the groups most at risk from it. Don’t think just because you’re not elderly or have a record of health issues that you’re immune from the severity of it because you’re not. Opinions like these will only see cases rise further. . Pot luck. 90+ year olds have survived, a handful of really young people sadly have died. Vaccine early next year. Get on. Still no vaccine for loads of diseases. Swine flu? Bird flu? Crack on. Protect who you need too, if that means anyone chooses Not to not attend football, that’s up to you. Simple really isn’t it?

We might all be people but some have been really selfish, ignored guidelines and in doing so probably helped bring about a second wave of the virus. I have members of my family that have been told by their Doctor that if they get the virus they will most likely die from it, also have daughter who works as a radiographer in a local hospital she certainly doesn't want to see a second wave. After listening to my daughter it is clear that those who ignore guidlines make things worse for everyone else.

Every time I see “ Covid -19 “ in the media I think “Bristol Rovers 0 “ in my head.

I knew something was up at around 7pm last night as the game had disappeared from the 365 betting website. Being selfish I’m just glad it’s Accrington with the problems and not us, this means their next 3 games will be cancelled but we should be okay for Tues. The right decision imo, not worth the risk of infecting our squad for one risky game. It’s a shame but I can see this happening quite a lot this year and it does make you wonder if indeed the season will actually get completed?

At least GGMI can have an early night tonight now, it saves staying up until 1 minute past midnight to start the match day thread! 😁

(Prediction league game 8) Fair play, a lot of work went into that. Thought referring to us as 'Jumpin’ Jack Flash’s Invitation XI' was a nice touch. Don't think any of our Match thread - pre match - starters should be allowed to post unless they come up with something similar

I don't think the will be the last time this happens, could potentially see games at neutral venues as well in time.

People ignore the guidelines down south everyday too though, it’s not exclusive to the north. As far as a 2nd wave goes we’re already well into that.

Read it out of mild curiosity. Glad I did. Very revealing. Maybe some posters who are quick to criticise players might take note.

For someone to actually write (articulately) what amounts to "I couldn't care less if my actions and my mates actions kill someone" i find astonishing! It is disgraceful attitude & should be condemned. gasheadbatesy would you get into a car drunk and drive? Because that is a straight comparison to what you have written!
