Heard different stories on whether we are/aren’t testing

UniFox21 Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Genuinely our country is run by idiots. We have 3 self isolating, Arsenal have been all week, B Mendy of Man City has. Ridiculous decision.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Our next home game will be behind closed doors, without doubt.
Leicester_Loyal Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Absolutely mental. Although I'd imagine if any of them come back as positive our game will be postponed? Either way teams are losing players and they're still expected to play. I ****ing hate the FA.
Heathrow fox Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Felt like today was the first timeTalkSport actually took this threat seriously.Maybe done deliberately to help people keep calm.
goody2028 Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 I’m sure our game will be decided for definite tomorrow on the results of the 3 players?

Ricey Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 I’m shocked they aren’t putting precautions in place for this weekend matches. The advice is that open air events are less dangerous than watching it in the pub, but what about the concourses? What about people buying and consuming food and drink in a congested indoor environment? Surely it’s a no-brainer, if these events are to go ahead with fans, to close all stalls in the concourses and have the stewards ensure fans aren’t congregating in there. The staff that would have worked the stalls could stand by the entrances/exits with hand sanitizer to try and limit any spread. Relatively easy to organise and is going to only help preventing the spread of the virus. It just astounds that around the world most sporting events are suspended, but in this country we aren’t even putting in place basic preventative measures.

No but given they'd come in to contact with the owner of a club they played who had contracted the disease. For what it's worth I think the game should be called off. Just don't think it was for less that Wednesday's was
Guest Manini Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Arteta has tested positive. It’s finished lads.

The Premier League have to act now.
dylanlegend Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 It’s a numbers game. The govt want to reduce the risk to the economy more than anything. in reality, we should switch the world off for 6 months but it’s impossible. Who prepares the food? Who looks after the vulnerable? What happens with hospital workers? Fair play to China they have suppressed this. Every country should follow their lead and unite but it seems every country is vying to look after themselves.
Pliskin Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 It’s beyond pathetic that our Government are advising we go on as normal. Complete **** nuggets. Just suspend the league for two weeks and then see where we are, in that time develop a contingency plan in the event of it proceeding the two weeks. Like I said, no one goes down, and no one goes up..... but then again is public health more important than money?

That’s one whole team now isolated for 14 days - other playing staff will likely test positive also. It’s finished for the time being it has to be.
Grebfromgrebland Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Arteta has just tested positive! Whole squad has to go into isolation!

Fox92 Posted 12 March 2020 Posted 12 March 2020 Be interesting to see what the PL do now.. Speedy recovery to Arteta.
