We have had a good window too. Squad does need trimming so we could see some championship loans for some. Everton managed to get a backup keeper last minute which is something I would have liked us to do but now we have to pray Adrian performs.

Rumour that Shaqiri has tested positive now too

It will be spreading all throughout the club. Although I'm hearing a load of this is all a hoax because people have had it and not passed it on to others.

I don't understand the protocol. As soon as one person in the squad (including all staff that are in contact with the players on a daily basis) gets infected...everyone should go into quarantine.

Could it be Thiago that brought Covid to the squad?

Apparently Trent was the one who got it but didn't want to go public.

I wonder if he misbehaved during the break

Last season it took 1 manager testing positive for a game to be called off.

This season we have squads decimated and managers managing from their living rooms.
Can see things getting worse once European footy kicks off

Tsimiskas was the first to have it, but there are rumours that both Trent and Origi had it in the summer which is why they were missing from the Austria camp.

Rumours, rumours and rumours

It crazy...it's either the game loses billions all around europe or they play the game...they chose the billions.

But these guys have the best medical treatments in the world at their feet...so I kinda understand why they went ahead with the season.

It's the lower league guys that will suffer the most.

What do you propose? Null and void?

After Sunday that’s a great idea.

Normally don't buy into rumours but any time a player is out for 2 weeks with an unspecified injury this season, then I think it's a fair assumption to make.

Wasn’t directed at yourself, more about how many are flying around all over the place at the moment.

I even heard the most ridiculous one that we’d lost 7-2 to Aston Villa. Lunatics.

This is my issue with the whole situation.

If I was to test positive today, surely the company I work for would have to shut down for 2 weeks because I've been in close contact with everybody currently working here.

But then what happens if one person doesn't test positive until 7 days after? Do they then have to self isolate for a further 2 weeks on top of the 7 days they have just done? Surely that makes sense. The problem is, are people doing that.

because I've been in close contact with everybody currently working here.

Eh?

I haven't been in an office for nearly 9 months now. Love it.

I've been WFH since 2009. Would never go back to a in the office job. My last company opened a new office near me and wanted me to work in office. A week later I got another WFH job.

Yeah, haven't been to the office since late March. Can never go back now.

How do you survive at home all day long it would kill me. As much as I moan about being in the office and sitting at PC screens make my eyes go square sometimes, I couldn't be at home all day everyday, even if I was working. Too many distractions.

Working from home sucks big hairy balls

Another benefit with working at the office is if you decide to sneakily knock one out in the bathroom you can get away with it in an block of 200 people. If you spaff up the back of the bathroom door at home the wife knows full well it was you!

Thanks 8===D-vock.
