Lrrr Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 The thing for me about all this is the players aren't isolating in hotels like the German teams are, that's probably part the reason they've been successful in restarting their leagues, there's no way to guarantee other people in the house won't bring the virus home when the players/staff here are still living at home.

Absolutely. Even more so in the Prem and Championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was during training as well, there may have been a small initial period where they were at home when they first returned to training but I've not even heard real suggestions of players over here isolating in hotels. Can you imagine league 1 teams trying to afford that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When watching either sky sports news or a game you could see the home team coach arriving and sure I heard them saying from the hotel?

View from the Dolman Posted May 24, 2020 Report Share Posted May 24, 2020 EFL update: The EFL can confirm that 1014 players and Club staff from all 24 Championship Clubs have been tested for COVID-19 over the course of the last 72 hours, with two individuals testing positive from one Club. Those players or Club staff who have tested positive will now self-isolate in line with the guidelines provided by the EFL and only those who have tested negative will be permitted to enter training ground facilities. The EFL will continue to make regular and relevant announcements as appropriate in respect of the testing programme to support competition integrity and transparency.
