I saw that EPL teams are able to have training matches, but I thought the EFL were at least a week behind in testing etc? 2 hours ago, Seneca the Younger said: Hope it's streamed, I assume not, tactics etc It's a training match - these have never been shown anywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City oz Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 Just asked the question. Is it away to Blackburn or not, there seems amongst us every one seems to know but dont know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westonred Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 I thought the EFL said that friendlies could only take place with teams within a 50 minute car journey from each other The players would have to travel in their own cars and arrive in their kits. Well surely Southampton is more than 50 mins away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roadrunner Posted June 5, 2020 Report Share Posted June 5, 2020 The league sent guidelines to the 20 teams on Tuesday outlining restrictions, including the need for a full risk assessment to take place before matches that members of staff would have to officiate instead of referees. Clubs are not allowed to travel more than 90 minutes for these friendly games, which players must go to in their own cars as social distancing and hygiene measures are implemented. The development will come as a surprise to some expecting intra-squad matches to be the only way to prepare in an 11-a-side match. Liverpool, Southampton and Sheffield United are among the sides to have done internal matches, with the latter increasing the workload as fitness improves. With a clear road and no stopping 90 min is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever tried getting from Southampton to Swindon in 50 minutes can't be done it's at least 80 minutes and that's not hanging around. The route is a nightmare I did it for two weeks the other way coming off the M4 at junction 15 the road is a nightmare almost as bad as getting to Minehead once you leave the M5.
