Michelle Owen supposed to be covering the Hull game for Sky, she's just got there  and tweeted the game is suddenly off.

Just wondering when is the last moment to call it off .
You would think that the tests are all back in by now, so if we get past 1 it’s on.
Last week we had the test results in the morning and the game was called off by 1pm. So going by that I'd say that if it's still  on at 1 o'clock it's safe to assume it's going ahead.
Yes I think you are right amazingly

Just got a text message from AVFC Saying not to travel if you have Covid symptoms and spot checks stuff

So I’m presuming it’s definitely on

That happened before the Burnley game was called off. I got one about an hour before the announcement.

If anyone is in the vicinity of Perry Barr, Asda are giving away free veg. Carrots, sprouts, cauliflower

In my cheese-dream last night, a Covid-hit Chelsea won 1-0 in the 96th minute from a player I'd never heard of.

We were half a first-team and a bunch of youth

I thought our recent performances have been quite promising.

Sanson is probably still missing. He’s got the plague.
