This carry on Christmas nonsense was only ever a stay of execution in England. Wait for the announcements as soon as the turkey’s eaten.

No real surprise. Rafa telling everyone there’s a growing list of injuries and players struck down with Covid. Since when has injuries been a strong case to postpone a game ? My guess is that Rafa is hiding behind Covid to get his main players match fit. Had it been the other way around , Everton would have insisted the game was played. Seems to me Everton have bent the rules to get their own way.

I remember years ago Middlesbrough called a premiership game off due to injuries - got deducted 3 points which led to relegation.
There will be teams taking advantage of this situation.
My guess is that if the Premier league or government cancelled all festive EPL matches, then they'd have a massive compensation bill to pay to Amazon.
Clubs calling off games on an individual basis means they won't.
And surely a Football club would have to produce some evidence in order to get a football match called off, what with TV money, fixture congestion and all that stuff. Football clubs have their own personal Doctors and other medical people, surely they would have to submit a letter to say that players aren't fit to play? This isn't conning your parents type stuff because you want a day off school. This is big business.
All divisions almost wiped out of games. This is a ridiculous situation, how have Clubs suddenly got so many players with Covid, it’s really scandalous.
