    Its all a con to re-align the season to cater for a winter World Cup. Summer football by stealth.

    Better hope we haven’t manipulated facts to get our games off since we are riddled with injuries.
    Expect a huge points deduction if it’s investigated.

    They don’t care about the fans. We’ve become a very corrupt club, might as well employ Steve Evans

    How are we corrupt?

    What a stupid statement, you have no idea whether it's true or not.

    Come on pal, you’re not that naive are you?
    Adams plants the seed the day before we announce Covid cases in the squad and the day after we were told we are the only league 2 club required to enforce the vaccine passes on our biggest gate of the season.
    It’s all been manufactured by the club to gain an advantage.
    If there was any truth in it they’d disclose the players involved but they can’t do that because if then any of those named players subsequently did catch Covid we’d be found out to be liars as you can’t catch it again within 90 days

    I am pretty certain the club would want this game on, given the financial implications of it being called off.
    It will now be arranged mid week and many now wont be able to attend and will want refunds, especially the hospitality, which i beleve was sold out.
    Another blow to the clubs finances and that January transfer pot.
    Anyone who thinks the club have done this deliberately needs their head checking.

    Lol you think the club will refund? Not a chance in hell.
    In fact they’ll hope people cancel so they can re-sell cancelled hospitality bookings.

    In fact anyone even asking for a refund should be called out as twats like I was even though I was joking about asking for a refund of my season ticket if games were played behind closed doors

    You do realise we have to report all the details to the EFL. As useless as the EFL are at times, I'm sure even they would spot it if we kept notifying them of the same players being positive over and over again.

    The Club are under no obligation to notify you of the details, notwithstanding that such a notification would get them into serious trouble without the permission of the said players.

    You really have an axe to grind. The club are obliged to refund, as they have cancelled and moved the original date.
    I beleve approx 10 games have gone on boxing day already. Are they all corrupt.

    Well it’s my opinion and the whole thing is very very suspicious.
    Why would the EFL have any more right to demand access to medical records than you or I?
    Even your boss can’t demand proof, they just have to take your word for it.

    Yes, I have no doubt it’s manipulation of a Covid situation to achieve some kind of stealth Xmas break.
    Anyway, see you in February if we’re lucky

    I dont understand why you think they should name the players/staff who are infected.

    Lots of games have been called off, I'm not too sure what your issue is?

    The games postponed it'll be played at a later date.

    The break may do us good. Injured players new players and all that but will also cause a fixture pile up , which could also be counter productive . 2 games a week on heavy pitches , fatigue and more injuries, also Harrogate's current form is not brilliant, so could have been a good time to play them.

    big question is whether Henry brings Minella Indo over. Best horse in the race but not even fav last time I looked - Clan Des Obeaux was!

    You have absolutely no proof to back that up regarding City calling off the game for any other reason than Covid.

    I am however sure that City proved their Covid cases to the EFL
