Odd silence from the club....
Don't even know which player/s are affected.
I'd imagine the games will be off, just not sure why they haven't annoucned it yet. |  |

Things will presumably become clearer once they have discussed it with the EFL. |  | | |

Problem might be that there just isn't any evidence of any football coaches going anywhere near our playing squad over the last few months. |  | | |

How much discussion does it take?
Pompey calling off games today too now. |  | | |

Portsmouth haven't called any games off at this moment. This is all dependent on the test results.
The only confirmation from the EFL today is that Millwall have had their next two matches suspended. | | | |

I think so, so the next game is against the mighty Real Fleetwood away. |  | | |

Discussions with EFL ongoing, asked earlier and might be news later today, now more likely tomorrow I would assume.
I think the rest of the squad will be tested again midweek before a decision is made. If there are no new positive tests then I think the games could go ahead. Otherwise, then I assume the next three will be off. |  | | |

Presumably that means it's not mainly fit first team players who are positive thus far? |  |

I think the club statement referred to first-team players and staff, the development squad and U18s have been keeping their distance from the senior squad so I wouldn't have expected them to have been tested as a matter of course. Injured players would similarly not have been around the squad. | | | |

Guess I'm just assuming that with 5 first teamers isolated, plus our regular injury crisis, we'd be well beyond being able to put out a reasonable team... | |

Not at liberty to discuss who has it, personal medical records and all. I'm guessing Lambert gave them permission. |  |

....any idea how our situation is any different from those numerous clubs that have already postponed fixtures?
It would be classic ITFC management if we ended up playing a weakened team when everyone else is postponing! |  |

I'd just had an email saying the announcement was imminent, if I can use that word. | | | |

Wonder if chambers is one of them. Doesn't he share his house with a load of u18s too? |  |

I think so, so the next game is against the mighty Real Fleetwood away. |
and it is on my birthday.
The last three games that have been on my birthday have seen us lose at QPR, draw at Burnley and lose at Fulham and I was at all three.
Wish we still played teams as good as those three. |  | | |

Academic now, but, assuming it's down to us to make the decision and the EFL can't veto, I suppose it would depend on who the players are, what areas of the squad and, perhaps going forward, how much fixture congestion there might be. | | | |

I suppose with the incubation period being 7 days. There could be a lot more players. Coaches who have covid so to be safe with those sort of numbers you have to postpone | |

They had a player left out on Friday as he had symptoms. The number of League One clubs and games being hit illustrates how widepread it is at the moment. | | | |

We played them just over a week ago - one club gave it to the other? | |
