Crabbycanary3 985 Posted December 14, 2021 How many players does it take to call a game off? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/59646845 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satriales 247 Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) I'm not sure about the number of players out, but they had to close the training centre and cancel travel so I guess its perhaps more logistics issues? Must have been bad enough, no club will want to postpone games, especially at this time of year when fixtures come thick and fast.

cambridgeshire canary 4,971 Posted December 14, 2021 It's Man United so they get whatever they want. Its that simple. If we had the same number of players off the league would still demand we play. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Normally I’d read something like this and think “don’t be silly, stop having an inferiority complex”, BUT, I’m inclined to agree after watching them “referee” Saturdays match. I know every club has their moments but every time we play Man Utd I’m astounded at the sheer entitlement that surrounds them. It’s almost vomit inducing.

I have just seen that it is David Coote as main Ref, Bankes is the VAR man. I think the general level of reffing is poor, but these 2 are near the bottom of that list, for me. Let's hope we can have a post match report, where the Ref (and VAR) is not mentioned. What are the chances? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pete 254 Posted December 14, 2021 Only if we score will VAR get involved. Bitter yes covid holidays for the PL glitterati. Will Man U have to have Saturday postponed or will retesting clear enough to play at Old Trafford? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarybubbles 1,349 Posted December 14, 2021 Most clubs: Six of our players have Covid, can we postpone the game? PL: No. Man U: Our star player has broken his fingernail, can we postpone the game? PL: Just tell us when you want it played. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
