Sorry mate. Sending my love to you and the missus. We’ve not caught up for a while but me and Sarah are thinking of you both x

Cheers sir! Will have to try and resolve the catch up thing!

So, what do we reckon the chances are of seeing a game on Saturday? 50-50?

99-1

 

[Oxford1996]

With all these games off, win Saturday and Sunderland losing at Ipswich will see us go joint 2nd!

99-1

For or Against?

For or Against?

For. We have one player out, Wigan have 0. Be amazed if it’s called off

Hope you’re right but there’s a way to go yet.

But don’t Wigan have injury issues

Mother in Law passed away. Not Covid related.
Had a week in Bridport supporting MrsEY(Mk2) and the family.
I now fully support assisted dying.
After knowing exactly what she wanted, just going to sleep, and seeing how things went across a 48 hour period there is no question in my mind that assisted dying has a place in a civilised society. It`s also easy to see why things like syringe drivers for morphine etc are supplied in locked boxes!
At least we were able to get her home and she is now at peace and pain free.
Kudos to the palliative care teams, the district nurses and hospice at home folk who were all absolute stars.

Sorry to hear this...thoughts with you

 

[Big Ronaldo]

Might be one of our last big crowd home games for a while so we really could do with winning it.
It’s a tough ask, but I truly believe that we are a damn good side and I fancy us to give them real problems all over the park.

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

Big round of testing today.

If you're considering going to this game then go. With Covid and the potential for a beast from the east Christmas week this could be the last game for a couple of weeks.

 

[OUFCwaffle]

If you're going, be sensible and do a test before please...

 

[West Oxon U’s]

Cambridge volunteer to introduce COVID certification checks:

[OX14]

I just done a test, not sure what it means though.

That's mean your in trouble get to the vets quick

 

[Golden Dr Otto]

Swindon have cancelled their game now too. Think this weekend will be a write-off.

Really sorry to hear this. I hope Covid makes a swift recovery having contracted what can only be described as a callous illness

This was a tad surprising..................

Quarter of EFL players 'do not want jab'

The EFL says a quarter of players at its member clubs do not intend to get vaccinated as tighter Covid-19 protocols are enforced.

www.bbc.co.uk

Vaccine data collected by the EFL in November showed 75% of players were either fully vaccinated, had had a single jab or intended to be vaccinated.

Double-vaccinated players totalled 59%, with 10% having had a single dose at the time, while 6% were set to get a first jab.

However, 25% of players said they "currently do not intend to get a vaccine".

Sounds about right. Aren't only about 75% of wider UK society jabbed?

You'd probably expect younger, healthier, fitter people to be slightly slower on uptake overall.
