The Club were originally formed as Stanley Villa FC, so named as a number of their team lived in Stanley Street in the town. The Club was renamed Accrington Stanley in 1894.

They should cancel the match and credit us 3-0 win and we all move on to Tuesday.
The BG amazing run continues....

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. What a selfish attitude! 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! Genuine question, I am curious as to why anyone with no symptoms would get tested ?

Aside from the sense in isolating the whole squad anyway, if they call off games for 3 international player call ups I dont see why anyone could have a problem with the same number of sick players leading to a postponement. I could be wrong but I swear the EFL said before the season started that they were going to treat players who get covid the same as any other injury. So if 8 can't play because of covid, the club would still be expected to fulfill the game otherwise would be subject to some sort of punishment. Im not sure if the EFL has changed their position on this or if I am wrong full stop. EFL will be doing an investigation. What is to investigate?

Government rules on track and trace/isolation would supersede any EFL rulings.

Every time I see “ Covid -19 “ in the media I think “Bristol Rovers 0 “ in my head. There was a time in my dim and distant past when I thought we had changed our name to "Bristol Rovers Nil". I heard it so much on the saturday Grandstand results service!!!!!!!! Grandstand!!!!!!! - really showing my age now

Keeping to the football, if as many players as reported at Accrington are isolating and they have some positive tests for it, I hope that Fleetwood are also being tested who they played in midweek and Ipswich who they played at the weekend are also being tested. That I presumed was the idea behind test and trace. If that doesn’t happen then its going to affect all of us, nationwide. Good that the decision was made before we travelled into a potentially high risk area. If they are not testing these other clubs then the risk of passing it on is incredibly high. UTG!
edit. Thanks Topper, you were posting whilst I was typing. Yes, I agree, surely Fleetwood should also be isolating, and possibly Ipswich as well.

The Fleetwood situation just makes it complete mockery, why don’t Gillingham just refuse to play them? They would certainly have a good case, I blame Joey Barton. :he hasn’t done anything but I’ll blame him anyway:
