Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Glad it's been postponed, common sense prevails (or we've decided to lie to the EFL about returning more positives!) Link to post Share on other sites

Sheff Utd had a player with a false positive and the EFL didn't want to take any chances. 1 7 Link to post Share on other sites
Downsouth 6,175 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Common sense prevails thankfully @SmogDane Sonni just keep tabs on what is going on and if Mansfield looks like going ahead please put up the thread 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Been another positive result since the press conference earlier apparently. Maybe that finally pushed us below the EFLs limits. Link to post Share on other sites
diggerlad07 3,648 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 Only Lumley and Hernandez tested negative who were going to start tomorrow. A further 13 staff tested positive this afternoon. 2 5 Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyL 2,565 Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 I suppose if clubs are diddling the numbers to get games off (Newcastle) then it could backfire in a couple of weeks when they have a genuine outbreak? Each club should have to name the positive players for that reason alone. Link to post Share on other sites

You have to take the positives (pardon the pun) from it 😃 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Just save the thread and bring it back whenever the game is replayed. It's not SmogDane's fault the game got postponed. The thread is already up and running so continue with it when the time is right 👍 6 Link to post Share on other sites
