Today's sporting news is all about the 42 players tested positive for COVID but, as is often the case, the media is focusing solely upon the PL. Meanwhile the EFL has its own woes that are laregly going unreported in the main media.... I created this thread so we could gather all COVID-related news impacting clubs outside the PL. We do have players still out on loan in the lower divisions but the Championship is our biggest concern I guess. Anyway, here is the first bit of news:
If you want to try and stop Omicron running riot then you have to take such drastic steps. I am guessing the staff based there will work from home? On Wednesday the club will announce whether Saturday's match against Swansea will go ahead. I cannot see it happening now.
QPR have closed their Heston academy training base for a week in a bid to limit the spread of Covid-19 which has hit the club. Rangers’ Championship clash with Sheffield United was postponed on Monday after a number of players and staff tested positive and Saturday’s match against Swansea looks increasingly likely to be called off.
The club announced on Tuesday that the Under-23 Premier League Cup match against Middlesbrough, due to take place at Wealdstone on Wednesday, has now been rescheduled for January 5. The Heston site, which is currently being re-developed to become the club’s official training facility, houses all of the club’s academy staff and teams.
