What players haven't got Covid-19 in the squad and what players have recovered 100%, and are ready to go?
Vital information. A great win or a big loss vs Derby? Another postponed game?
I hope they all recover real soon!

Do we actually know how many tested positive and how many were close contacts? I'm not sure how it works. Presumably all the unvaccinated ones would have to isolate regardless of test results?

Why are unvaccinated players having to isolate, given Omicron is prevalent in anyone, vaccinated or otherwise?
They should have just left the vaccines to the vulnerable, they've been nigh on useless for everybody else.

Difficult times for a tipster.

Did I miss that as I thought it was January?
