They had 3 positive tests and their game is on.

We’ve now surrendered 2 weeks of training whilst other teams come up with solutions.

Losing Vernam, no pre season and now this all seem to end up being problems we naively create for ourselves. What on earth is going on?

Seems strange to me. Game at Bradford which has a high rate of virus in any case.

Sounds to me like someone didn’t really fancy a trip to a decent Cheltenham with a half-fit squad off the back of a 4-0 humping...

And now face an EFL investigation plus accusations of unprofessional notification from Bradford?

We should all probably wait till we know if there are any differences in the circumstances.

Listening to Phillip Day (who always comes across well) we tried to arrange testing but were advised that would be pointless.

The options open to us are ones given by EFL ie closing training ground. I get the sense it’s the EFL that don’t really know what they are doing and making it up as they’re going along.

To me it seems we’ve acted in good faith in there advise... Very strange why Scunthorpe, ourselves, Orient, Stevenage and The Hull match have all had different outcomes on the face of it.

Day comes across very well, yet always seems to come out of things looking absolutely naive.

He comes across well because he doesn't speak Fentyisms, but he will be under orders to cut costs to the bone, and is what he says correct?

It feels like we took this decision unilaterally. Decided we needed to isolate the squad and couldn't fulfil the fixture. Something doesn't add up.
