Game could be off tonight.

"Travers revealed that Orient are set to lose £2.5million this year due to the coronavirus crisis and that the bumper clash with Tottenham is worth £150,000 profit to the club."

Haven't Spurs paid for the Orient tests? Apparently Newcastle refused to pay for our players to be tested, so we could have ten players COVID-19 positive and the game go ahead, but Spurs paying for Orient's tests results in them getting a bye and Orient not getting any cash?

If we were to beat Newcastle and draw Spurs in the following round, if they say they'll pay for our players to be tested, we tell them to go away quickly!

I agree with your post Keith and it’s dreadful that Newcastle have opted not to pay just 2 grand (a club that pays 2k in just a matter of minutes for player wages) for our private testing, but we’ve already had the next round drawn and we’re looking at the dizzying heights of Newport!

David Moyes and 2 players test positive yet their match went on?

If a player is positive why doesnt the whole team have to self isolate? As surely they are in their bubble.

Its one rule for one and one for everyone else.

Orient played Oldham on the 12th, who then played Morecambe 3 days later on the 15th and Stevenage 4 days after that.
Who's been exposed is more the worry?
