You’re missing the point. The point isn’t that a game has been called off in isolation - it’s the fact that there is no consistency and no set rules and protocols that are remotely clear. If it isn’t safe to play anymore then they need to get a financial package sorted ASAP so that clubs can survive. Otherwise they need to find a standard procedure which means when a small number of people test positive, clubs know what to do and they can safely isolate those individuals, and complete their fixtures as a result.
What we can’t have is a situation where as soon as a couple of cases are found they can just drag it out and call it all off at the last minute. That will end up costing clubs dearly, all because there is no system in place what so ever.
Sod the game being off - it’s the fact that there are no rules in place and that precedents are being set which could kill the season over the winter. And if the season gets culled with no cash bailout in place, clubs will go to the wall. To put this down as people just having the a**e because a derby game is being called off completely misunderstands the issue.
