devonshire owl Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 There won't be room for three coaches getting into the ground,it's bad enough for one coach.i expect they will drop them off in the city centre and let them walk the rest of the way.

In these times I think they should strip the coaching team right back, manager, assistant, physio, something like that. I don't know why on earth they're allowed 9 subs either at the moment? Bizarre Id take 15 players max . No rule saying u need 20 players. Who is paying for 3 coaches and extra hotel rooms? The less what go the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manwë Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 And then get together in separate changing rooms, with zones on pitches (Def, Mid, Att) where each group forms a bubble with team mates but also with the relevant opposition (Def-Att, Mid-Mid, Att-Def).

theowlsman Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Dear EFL, Thank You for your latest COVID directive about the need to take three coaches to Exeter. We shall be sending Neil Thompson, Lee Bullen, and Nicky Weaver because we’ve sacked all the others. Due to EFL FFP rules, we can’t afford to sign any others either. Regards SWFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest LondonOwl313 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Am I the only one reading it and thinking it sounds sensible. When you’re on a coach it’s a confined space with air being recycled via the air conditioning. The more spaced out you are the less chance of infecting someone else if one of them has it despite the negative test. When they’re on the field of play quite often they’re two metres apart, obviously not always when they challenge for the ball though. And it’s out in the open air so less chance of transmission. This isn’t about eliminating the risk of transmission, the only way to do that is to cancel the game and stay at home. It’s about reducing the risk as much as possible while still playing the games. At the end of the day only 1% of people under 40 require hospital treatment, and most of those are unfit or have underlying issues. This mass hysteria has to stop and we should look at the facts. There’s more chance of the coach crashing on the way back from the game and them dying than there is of them dying of Covid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah that would reduce it further.. but guessing they’ve been advised that 8 people (or whatever the number is) across a full coach is low enough risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a good idea to have Lys Mousset doing this though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
