dunsteral Posted June 11, 2020 Report Share Posted June 11, 2020 What are the logistics for the away teams getting to their opponents ground to play the games? No hotels so travel on the day? Is social distancing necessary on team coaches, or is that overruled by the fact that they are making contact with each other during the games. How can Sheff Wed get to ashton gate for a 12 o'clock kick off. Are teams allowed in to Wales to play either swansea or cardiff? How can City get to middlesborough for a 3 o'clock kick off. Will all the above factors have a bearing on the results with the travelling teams presumably suffering from a level of fatigue? Any thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts No welsh rules local travel only (within 5 miles) either that or there will be some bollox where football teams are exempt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts I think Sheffield Weds could get to Ashton Gate in time for a 12 o’clock kick off if they left Sheffield at 7am and I think our chaps could get to Boro for a 3pm kick off if they left Bristol at 7.45am ...

daored Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Charlie Adam was on 5Live and made reference to our game against Blackburn and said the players will drive up individually to away games. He mentioned the potential problems for us with games away to Blackburn & Boro (although as @Spoons says they may fly to Boro). Agree with the concept why can’t they travel by coach together if they’ll be sharing a dressing room in close proximity to each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Londoner Posted June 12, 2020 Report Share Posted June 12, 2020 Presumably the same restrictions will be in place for match officials, maybe they’d then use localish based officials to cut down on travelling and fatigue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
