I understand that Blackburn utd players and coaches were contacted on Monday requiring them all to self isolate following Saturday's match with Musselburgh. Has tonight's game v Tranent been postponed? It's still showing on the EoS site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scheduled fixture on Sat v Camelon is already posponed becasue of their Scottish Cup tie. From gov.uk here's what self isolate means "must stay at home and self-isolate for 10 days from their last contact with the confirmed case" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastyMan Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 I don't get this. EoS has been granted the privilege of continuing playing. Procedures are put in place to restrict numbers at games and record EVERYONE present for precisely this eventuality. Track and Trace kicks in EVERYONE gets contacted just as if they had been to the same pub back when they were open. EoS should be shouting loud and clear that this has happened and both teams will be required to stop training and games until the 10 day period has passed. They should make a virtue out of the process actually doing exactly what it has been set up to do! Here's hoping that the player or players involved make a swift and full recovery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t remember if you are a fan at Tranent or a Committee member or both? You are on here a lot so you will have noticed me making an erse of myself last week when I argued a few times with Burnieman, to the extent that I had to apologise twice. Thankfully, Burnieman accepted my apologies and we move on. As I said last week, I am a fan. I was convinced what I said was true, but it was proven that I was not, hence the apologies. As I am not on the committee, I do not know all happenings at Musselburgh so will not comment on what you have written, but I will say now that you have written down something that I certainly wouldn’t have of Tranent! I will say no more on the matter. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this really necessary? Casey Jones will be allowed to attend games as he provides match reports and updates. I'm sure he doesn't have to be a committee member to assume that role. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely not Halfwit, imagine Musselburgh sticking two fingers up to Covid, the EOSFL and the safety of their own players? The interesting fact would be when did the Musselburgh player that tested positive actually go for his test, lets hope that for everyone's sake it wasn't before he played the game v Blackburn on Saturday? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking apart Halfwit, this is now becoming very concerning? Tranent received an email from Musselburgh on Monday late afternoon, to indicate the game on Wednesday could be in doubt because of a positive Covid case within the Musselburgh squad. If that was the case why did Musselburgh then decide that training on Monday night at the Oriam was acceptable? I am also led to believe that Blackburn were informed that players and coaches that attended the game at Olivebank on Saturday would require to self isolate....again why did Musselburgh think it was ok to train on the Monday night? Hopefully the players that have tested positive are well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
