GAME OFF: COVID-19 NOW AFFECTING THE PREMIER LEAGUE

The Tottenham vs Fulham Premier League match has been postponed due to Covid-19 cases at west London club



Fulham were due to play Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Wednesday evening; game becomes third Premier League fixture to be postponed because of coronavirus this season; with 18 positive cases confirmed across the league on Tuesday


Fulham requested the re-arrangement of their Premier League match at Tottenham on Wednesday evening be postponed because of an outbreak of coronavirus at the club.

The west London side reported a number of new positive tests on Tuesday. The fixture at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium becomes the second in the English top-flight to be called off this week - and the Premier League have now confirmed the decision and declared they "still have confidence" in the Premier League programme continuing.

On Tuesday, the Premier League revealed there were 18 positive coronavirus cases across the league - the highest figure recorded this season - following the latest round of testing.


Manchester City's trip to Everton on Monday was postponed hours before kick-off due to multiple positive cases within the City camp.

Newcastle's match against Aston Villa, scheduled for December 4 at Villa Park, was postponed earlier this month after the Magpies were hit by the virus.


Sheffield United announced they had recorded "a number of positive coronavirus tests after the latest round of testing" but fulfilled their fixture away to Burnley on Tuesday evening.


Fulham's trip to Spurs would have seen Scott Parker return to the dugout after being forced to miss their 0-0 home draw with Southampton on Boxing Day due to a member of his household testing positive for coronavirus.

Third game in the Premier League this month to be postponed because of COVID-19.

Time for a two week break as a circuit breaker in my view.

It's a no-brainer in the current situation, Ned

If the Premier league side can't play they should lose the game 3-0. These players are paid 10s of thousands of pounds a week yet can't look after themselves at home. At the club they are all in a bubble so are safe, as long as they take individual responsibility. If you can't play a fixture in the Rugby Premiership you lose 20-0. Wolves are even delivering groceries to their players.

FA should stop all our games, cancel the season and save us the agony!

2nd game in 2 days to be called off - with 3-4 hours to kick-off .

This post is about as stupid as your name on here.
Pathetic in fact.
