Looks like another sad situation for a town team.

Just heard a story about a number of leyton orient players testing positive for covid after their game against Mansfield on saturday

Apparently spurs paid for the testing prior to their cup game tomorrow which is now under threat

I was under the impression the EFL players would be being tested like the premier league players but are they not? I remember reading prior to lockdown that they were very concerned about the cost but are they not testing?

What about the mansfield players now? Who played Orient? Their next game?

This could bring the EFL into question of shutting down again without testing no?

When I saw a big team had paid for a lower team to get testing, I wondered if maybe it was us with Lincoln.

I also wonder if there's little incentive for these clubs to pay for testing so long as they aren't allowed to have fans attend matches. It may be that without gate revenue, they won't feel financial incentive to pay for the tests. Not saying that's the proper view, just that it might be the rationale these clubs are employing.

"Football’s deeply unequal, unsatisfactory and wobbly status quo has been reasserted, for now."

F***ing Millwall.

F**k the politics, it's about the principle,  can't these knuckledraggers understand this.

Anyone surprised really, you always knew that would be the reaction from the braindead tw*ts.

I would like to know how long this ‘knee’ message is going to last?
Is it until laws change? Or equality irons itself out? Is it until police brutality in America stops? Or is it just a symbol that the majority of people stand together in the face of racism?

I’m trying not to sound ignorant or insulting here, btw. I know it’s a sensitive issue.

I just can’t see the premier league or FA ever deciding that it’s no longer necessary and it’ll take a brave team to be the first to stop doing it.

Or maybe it’s a permanent thing now.

EFL trophy today and our own jay spearing is playing.
I still remember when he came on against real Madrid to a standing ovation.
