What block were you in? (just for interest)I'm double vaxxed - didn't stop me catching Covid at the match last Thursday! Feel like crap at the moment, and have done for a few days!

Eric Morecambe
When Eric played an incompetent 'Mr Memory', unable to remember anything without unsubtle prompting from Ernie, Ernie prompted Eric with "Arsenal!" disguised very badly as a cough. Later, whenever Ernie, or anyone else, coughed or sneezed, Eric would shout "Arsenal!" (Wiki)
We play Morecambe fc in the FAC
And one symptom of Covid is a cough.
There’s s joke in there somewhere.
It had to happen but it is frustrating that the two teams we play next in Leicester and Brighton are both in poor form or have lots of injuries and are probably quite winnable games because of this. I doubt the conditions would be as advantageous next time. A shame but it’s where we are now.
So hope too that crowds remainSo, spread rather rapidly through the club if indeed Omicron variant.
Games being postponed, kind of got me thinking, if it can go through a team so quickly, how long until the mass gathering of fans becomes an issue once more, and sees games played in empty stadiums again.
Surely that would see Levy( like many) take a more cautious approach regarding spending with revenue streams reduced once more.
Hope this scenario doesn't play out, not now we have a truly elite manager who needs backing, and has no doubt been told he'll have a decent wedge to spend.
This makes me so scared for our whole team.I was reading about Kimmich at Bayern. He has his lungs affected by Covid and is now out until like mid january. The thing is he wasnt vaccinated and was well known he didnt want to have the vaccine yet.
So a 20-30% improvement over this season's early performance levels?This makes me so scared for our whole team.
Even if they don't get to Kimmmich' level of illness
any illness they do have might severely affect their performance. We might have half a team performing at 60/70%
We might, but if it's Omicron we probably won'tThis makes me so scared for our whole team.

I expect there to be a domino effect, Omicron seems to be spreading fast. Leicester may have an outbreak bigger than ours by tomorrowBeen thinking - all of the combinations or permutations of games and when and how we can play them is assuming we will only have our four games to rearrange. What we dont know is if we need to face a team who are experiencing what we are experiencing - so potentially they also need to be psotponed as our situation has now set a precedence if others face similiar numbers.
There could be more - who the hell knows.

I know this is off topic but I always wandered why he shouted Arsenal.Eric Morecambe

Wolves are the exemplary club when it comes to the vaccinations. They had doctors and virologists in to meet with the players, explained the risks and benefits, and the whole squad got on the team bus and drove to the vaccine centre together. Everyone got their first and second jabs on the same days.I am amazed that clubs did not put more pressure on (or even insist that) their players to get the vaccine. In the age of Sport Science you'd think the players would be well educated and advised. Having unvaccinated players increases the risk of there being a Covid breakout at the club, and also means illness will statistically be worse and recovery take longer. As I put in the Covid thread, I was hospitalised by Covid back in October despite being double vaccinated, and the doctors showed me an x-ray of an unvaccinated persons lungs in comparison to my own x-ray, and I really cannot comprehend anyone taking the risk of not having the vaccine.
Has it been confirmed that it’s the Omicron variant that’s affecting the club?We might, but it's Omicron we probably won't
Has it been confirmed that it’s the Omicron variant that’s affecting the club?
Then hopefully all our players come through this unscathed.
