Apparently Real Madrid have protested the redraw on the basis they had already been drawn against Benefica before any error occurred.

Looks like tomorrow night's game will be off and possibly the weekends because of Covid.

Midnight before it was officially called off.

Has it been reported how many cases Utd have?

As soon as the training ground is closed there is not much the PL can do. Clubs are following guidance from Health Dept firstly and when that happens the football is coming second.

Outside of the outbreak in footballing terms all well and good to get a break now, but it means there is going to be fixture pile up at some point.

Football genius and tactics master Roddy Collins reckons your new man is a spoofer.

Man United vs Brighton on Saturday the latest game to be postponed. United had nine first team players available to play Brentford and only seven available to play Brighton according to journalists.

If they have sufficient number of registered adult players then the game should be played, thats the whole point, basically, I wanna see Paul McShane run wild run free!

[Boycey]

The whole lot be off soon enough I'd have thought.....

Why should others suffer because United players won't get vaccinated ?

[laoislad]

Should get in touch with Tyrone footballers to see how they recovered so quickly....

Why should others suffer because United players won't get vaccinated ?

Who said they weren't vaccinated? Should be made play regardless though

68% of PL players fully vaccinated and this from the Times in October

"Manchester United are among the Premier League clubs still trying to persuade a number of their players to get vaccinated against Covid-19.

It emerged last week that only at seven of the 20 top-flight clubs had more than 50 per cent of the players received vaccinations.

Old Trafford insiders insist they are not among one or two "outliers" who have convinced only 20 per cent of their squad to have the jabs, but The Times understands that they are part of a significant group still some way off matching the likes of Liverpool and Leeds United at close to 100 per cent.

As the biggest, most influential club in the country — and among the most powerful brands in the global game — this is seen as problematic in Premier League circles. Indeed rival clubs have become frustrated by the situation at Old Trafford, though in some cases the reluctance to be vaccinated is on religious grounds."

If players aren't vaccinated they have to self isolate as close contacts, I assume that's what is f**king up these games

[Cunny Funt]

Why should others suffer because United players won't get vaccinated ?

There is no details on who is or isn't vaccinated and one can pick it up regardless especially with this more transmissible variant.

I doubt Brighton are suffering with this decision, they have a injury hit squad and haven't won for 11 games.
