The governments around the world have successfully brainwashed the mentally weak.

Grow up

 

[nikom court]

Grow up

touchy!

 

[Terrarian]

Flu kills more every year, we should have dealt with it by closing our borders to foreign invaders and expelled all the chincs from the country. Too soft in the west we are.

not on

 

[Cameron Manning]

It's probably just benitez getting his own way to postpone the fixture, which in all honesty is the best option with so few players.

I am a little concerned if the team is picking up injuries behind the scenes though. Both for getting results when we do play next and the fact the managers fitness man is doing a worse job than the last one.

Most probably because he’s still sorting the mess out left by the previous fella who had been sacked by Everton once before, if I’m not mistake.

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Premier League have ‘regretfully approved’ Everton’s request to postpone the game.

Don’t recall them using this type of scolding language when any other club had their match pulled.

 

[Bluestar]

In all honestly, Burnley should be given the win.

Any team in the competition who claim they cant fulfil their fixture should forfeit.

That should be applicable to every team.

These are not normal times.

I think a global pandemic is a reasonable cause for caution.

These are not normal times.

I think a global pandemic is a reasonable cause for caution.

What dictates that though?

3 cases? Sound.
5 cases? No?

They're winging it. Last year you could forgive it but it's daft now.

Why did they decline the request yesterday but approve it today?

 

[WA Toffee]

Shows players getting the vaccine was pointless, that's why I haven't had any jajabs.

You chose to not get vaccinated because some footballers have got Covid?
I really hope I am not reading this correctly

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

League shamed into postponing this, such a load of nonsense and zero consistency.

Regrettably approved, GTF you bunch of weapons.

There’s no consistency and that’s what annoys me

Rafael threw his weight around and they buckled

Don’t worry, they’ll find a way of getting back at us.

 

[banno]

Postponed? Pathetic.

Why? Is it one less loaded bullet to fire at Benitez maybe? Did you want us to field a severely weakened team against a full strength Burnley team

 

[Frenk]

Awesome, now I get to enjoy Boxing Day!
