R.R.FC Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Given Kieran MacDonald tested positive 3 weeks ago (I assume he caught it at his other job/away from the club) I always felt there was a fairly good chance that testing might flag up a few more positives. I hope all concerned make a full and speedy recovery. Will be interesting to see what the outcome is. I hope we have been following all protocols and we are granted the postponement with no further repercussions. We will definitely not be the last Championship club to suffer from this but I guess we will just have to see what happens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers_Lad Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Not for one minute saying this is behind the outbreak but under the circumstances not sure it was/is wise for us to allow other clubs to use our facilities If this is Rovers first week of testing cant say I,m suprised at the positve tests and like others have said we wont be the only chmpionship club to suffer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Might also be a case of doing everything within our power to fulfil the fixture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chimney Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 No surprise what position is causing the need for an emergency loan, otherwise enough players available no doubt #goalie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 This is actually not that bad news. A 3 goal victory for ICT is surely about our par score against them over the last 15-20 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank conner Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I would be surprised if Inverness would be keen on the game goig ahead after a substantial outbreak would they want to put their players and staff at risk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought crossed my mind also. Definitely not something you’d want to contend with when recuperating from a major operation. Hopefully he’s not one of the positive tests. Hope all at the club have a speedy recovery from this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
