Football to continue for now.

CONFIRMED: The Premier League WILL continue for now. Clubs told of way forward:

13 outfield players + keeper is enough to avoid postponement. Should figure be less, U21s who have first team experience HAVE to step in. Chief medic may also inquire over injured players.

(Mike Keegan - Daily Mail)

LOL @ the money greedy #@&%!s and clubs who couldnt give a flying £#%&! about player welfare. Fans dont matter obviously and they'll close stadiums before football stops. Bin

Yaaay

Should start fielding womens team also

Good. Tell the soft @#%&!s to use their u23s

I'm no fan of vax mandates but I'd make an exception for the ponces that kick a ball about at Carrington. It's bad enough being stuck with your wife and kid at this time of year yet these soft @#%&!s are trying to get matches cancelled? Vax them up, make them play over the festive period then bin them all.

I just know I'll get to Newcastle on the 27th and the second I step off the train the match will be called off. f***ing guaranteed.

Step off the train after the game?

yep - just in time to have the payment taken out for the hotel too because it's too late to cancel

And i £#%&!ing know I wont get chubbed for Villa and £90 will come out of my account on Wednesday

13 fit players + keeper seems absolutely fair.

Chelsea throwing a full on paddy yesterday. They only had Saul, Kovacic and Barkley (about £80m worth) to come off the bench to relieve Kante, Ziyech, Mount, Pulisic etc. Maybe loaning out 823 players all over the world could also have left them short. They're not going to lose the league to City because Ruben Loftus-Cheek couldn't play against Wolves.

Meanwhile, Wolves had someone called Hugo Bueno on the bench who I've never heard of and may in fact be one of those gross Spanish nougat bars covered in nuts.

Clubs need to STFU and get on with it.

It might also be an idea for these @#%&! clubs who are moaning to direct their complaints to the players who aren't getting vaccinated. It might not have a huge effect on matches getting cancelled but you just know managers will be moaning into 2022 about players still feeling the effects, if only there was something freely available to mitigate the worst symptoms

Nailed on.

City are gonna cruuuise it with their depth.

It's not that long ago that teams had one substitute, and successful teams played 65 or so games a season. They really need to stop whining and do what they're paid for ffs.

Perhaps the first target for your ire should be your fellow professionals who have refused to get vaccinated.
