It's looking likely games will go back to be played behind closed doors after Christmas, and the country will be in full lockdown again

I think that would be OTT, reduce crowds by all means but shutting everyone out is a bit too much.

This is not bad news for us at all. A 4 week break would also be ideal so Wesley, jonny, cags and JJ can get fit.

There’s the most cases ever at the moment. There’s many fewer hospitalisations and deaths than before. But that’s at the moment.
 

It’ll take a few days at the least to know if the cases lead to hospitalisations and overwhelm the NHS leading to other deaths due to lack of NHS availability.

 

I’ve not yet had it but I’ve heard a few reports about long term health worries from friends who’ve had it, especially in cases of hospitalisation.

 

I guess if the cases don’t lead to hospital visits then the football could stay on. But if omicron starts to overwhelm the NHS I can see another pause in football.

 

I’d imagine they’ll pause the football for a few days until we know how it’ll affect the NHS.

Noooooo not behind closed doors again!

I'll have to revert to watching "**** my life" on Netflix!

It's a way bigger issue. They will need to reintroduce squad bubble scenarios. But with the level of infection currently across whole squads. I could see the entire Xmas / NY calender decimated.

It wont be paused, they cant afford to with the world cup happening next winter, it'll most likely just start being played behind closed doors again

Seagrave closed for 48 hours, which surely means the Everton game on Sunday is off as well?

Under 23s were also due to play on Friday at Segrave. Doubt that will go ahead

and closing the training ground works again

 

 

 

 

So we could play but not have been able to train properly before Sunday? 

 

Think Sunday should be called off too.

Can we get a copy of Brendan's starting 11 for today though? I'm fascinated to know what he would have done at the back.

Well, there was talk about bringing Len Chalmers back!!:D

But also hope no one else picks up the virus between now and then... 

 

Would be terrible for Leicester fans to travel very early on a Sunday morning only for it to be called off and it be a wasted journey. 

Training ground has been closed to reduce chances

I would be very surprised had we have trained much before Sunday anyway. Tomorrow would’ve been rest/recovery day,  maybe train Saturday then travel up. Don’t think it’s a massive issue.
