A bit.
The club has been reluctant to give details on players with covid and might not want to bang the drum loudly as some invertebrate primates will crawl out of their hidings to make wild assumptions and accusations, but at the same time if Brighton have cases and nothing is said, it also causes speculation and the public also have some kind of right to know that maybe its not wise to lick Connollys nostrils once he scores a hattrick. If you are going to a performance you should know that some of the people performing has been around sick people lately.
Probably comes down to a bit of question marks on how to communicate these things. The club probably wants to say something, while also not really say anything.

There has already been a death recorded against the Omicron variant, in Britain.
The immediate problem is actually Delta which seems to be out of control and having a big big impact on the unvaccinated and double jabbed. This is the strain killing 100+ every day with Delta infections still increasing. Whatever happens with Omicron, we need to deal with Delta as a priority by boosting as many people as quickly as possible.

That’s unlucky he’s had trouble catching anything just lately
Is it really a great idea to speculate which players do and don’t have it?

Harsh and rubbish but it made me laugh
Nope, it is a little bit ****ed up. From scrolling some Facebook and Twitter, Brighton havent got a single fit player currently.
If some reputable journo known to reveal things would mention names, then its a little bit different but from what I can see it is just random people throwing around random names.

Is the correct answer, then everybody will know what is happening and takes away the endless speculation, if it means extending to May/June again then so be it, call it a practice for next year's World Cup debacle

(Name drop apology) the single nicest, most genuine person my Amy has met on her ‘adventure’
I can't see it will be any better by then...
- Javid spoke today about there being 200,000 new infections per day in the UK currently.
- Omicron currently has a doubling rate of 1.6 days so is growing ridiculously quickly. London is now 40% Omicron, and the rest of the UK around 20%. It will be dominant in the country in a few days.
- All these growing infections need to go through their illness cycle of which, sadly, many will end up in hospital.
As such, if the Premier League was going to pause until things were looking better, it could be a couple of months, maybe even longer.

Is it true that someone on this thread is auditioning for the lead role of ‘Rab C. Nesbit The Movie’ and practicing with a couple of bottles of Buckfast?

Just hope you don’t catch the death stare he gave the Holmesdale Ultras then.

That’s a fair point but I suggested this timescale to the end of December because this would at least allow everyone to get their boosters. Beyond that you would hope they can crack on.
I really hope they don’t just stagger on with little regard for anyone else because of the money.

strong and stable with me, or...
This season ends on 22 May, next starts on 06 August. No summer tournaments so must be some wriggle room in the fixture calendar if needed.

Or the bungle**** could make the decision for them.
My work won't let me access where the vending machine is, yet on Wednesday my day was shaping up as brekkies in a hotel, dept office 'lunch' then to the Amex.
