Boxing Day - saltash COVID


Recommended Posts

Something from the statement saltash released about the positive cases does not add up, if they knew about the 3 positive cases in there club on Xmas Eve surely for safety of fans & players the game should of never been played? regardless of the deep clean they so called did on Christmas Day! They should of at least kept the clubhouse shut due to the positive cases in there? Seems like they wanted to cash in on the 300 sell out. Now people have to had self isolate and lose out on potential income and put potentially vunerable people at risk!

If what you say is correct, then Saltash officials need to be looking over their shoulder to see what size their substantial fine will be.

Substatially more than they made on the day.

I would assume they've only just found out that anyone was positive otherwise why would the statement only be put out today 8 or 9 days later. 

If they only found out, why would they of done the deep clean on Christmas Day? Seriously doesn’t make any sense of how the game was even played with them obviously knowing about the 3 cases within the club!

The way I read it was club only just been notified by track and trace that someone tested positive who visited on xmas eve 

club cleaned and disinfected ‘as a matter of course between xmas eve and Boxing Day’. To me that implies after every day/evening they are open the routinely clean and disinfect. 
 

I would certainly hope so, all hospitality premises should be cleaned after closing/before opening every day, preferably using a spray/mist disinfectant.

PS While you need a “deep clean” to remove beer stains, mud etc. disinfecting surfaces and upholstery will do fine for coronavirus!

Get a fogging steriliser, quick and very efficient with a Covid killing chemical. 

Sterilises ceilings, walls, soft furnishings and the air in the room.

Just a gentle reminder everyone. 

I attended a game on 27th October. Open air ground in Cornwall. I didn't enter the club.  I caught Covid. Has that club lost -40 points? No. 

The only thing which confirmed the T and T works is that NHS made a lot of people isolate as a result of that including 15 people I work with (boy was i popular). 

So if you did T and T like I did on Boxing Day and you've not been contacted then you have little to worry about.

Equally, the NHS will decide- NOT the club what day you are on for self isolation. I was positive the Friday so started on Day 5 as I got the result on a Sunday. But my work colleagues all started on Day 2 as I'd been in work on the Thursday with no symptoms. This was October so they got 14 days isolation rather than the 10 now.

In the statement it ask if any spectators came in contact with the players to self isolate. 

 Does this mean it is players who have caught it which begs question why did the Boxing Day match go on at all. When they were informed and cleaned it xmas day ? 

Club only notified yesterday of positive cases. Not Boxing Day

So why the deep clean on Xmas day then indicating they where  aware then    

All bit confusing in the statement

also comments suggesting the players were Plymouth based in the clubhouse who shouldn’t have been in there coming from different tier. 

if anything it seems a good thing the league is actually suspended when it did as this could have got worse the more matches went on.

Cleaning and disinfecting for pubs and bars after closing is done every day after they are open as part of COVID guidelines 

From Boxing Day both Devon and Cornwall were placed in to tier 3. The Christmas Eve cases did not involve players from what I heard

How do you know you caught it at the game? Or at work? Or anywhere else you had been?

A player was supposedly confirmed to have it!

Plymouth has been in tier 2 for ages so technically the Plymouth based players were not really meant to be in the club house.

I'd only been to football that Tuesday(day off from work). Wednesday and Thursday bar 2hrs in work I didn't leave my flat. Only contact with 1 work colleague.  I went down with symptoms on Friday - Day 3 when they traditionally appear.

As part of T and T the NHS were satisfied that football was the most likely place as was my follow ups with Derriford lung clinic and I was stood chatting close to a positive person. I wont name that person but they got symptoms the same week.

But then work out how my other half never caught it? We shared a bed and flat as they're working from home! 

Its a virus. If its got your name on it- bugger all you can do but hope it doesn't hit you bad. And thats why any idiot who blames a football club shouldn't. Unless you've stood in close contact for minimum of 10 /15 mins with a positive case then you should be fine.

I think the issue is that the statement(before edited) inferred that the(or some) players had ( or were at) a small function in the Clubhouse and then some have since had covid.

Christmas Eve you could sit and have a pint in Tier 1 from Tier 2/3 without a meal.....

IMHO- I miss total lockdown. At least you know where you stood

That not correct the Plymouth players shouldn’t be in there drinking from a tier 2 area. It never changed just because you travel to a teir 1 area  

your right tho a total lockdown should have happened ages ago

Wait till Leeds see this......

I have washed my hands with it Silly Billy.

I'm done from all this from now. 

Hearing today St. Blazey are keeping their duo in charge, after the committee have bottled out of dismissing them. Frightened. 

They dismissed Danny Bance a few season back after a poor string of results, yet this leadership take a group of players on a night out, a piss up, a social, breaking rules set out by the Government & Police whilst people are dying alone without families by their side.

The Committee are weak of this IF this is  correct, & deserve Everything that will come there way, from petitions from the local Hospitals ( hearing this already in motion) & I know of two people who have sadly passed away from Covid, taken far to soon,  BOTH their families WILL be attending the next fixture at Blaise Park as they would like to hear from Management as to why they find it acceptable for them to completely discard the guidelines, & Committee to see how they can defend a duo who let this happen so openly, flaunting the law with arrogance. 

Many many respected guys involved in local football have agreed these people don't belong in football, after all the other incidents during the last 8 months involving the club, if what I'm hearing is correct, & you are keeping the culprits, then club hold your heads in shame.

People have died, will continue to die, some young, some old, some alone without family to hold their hands.

If you agree with me, please just 'like' this post. I know I can ruffle a few feathers most of time , but this is real life, I find this absolutely criminal.

Stay safe all, from someone who has lost two friends from this Killer disease. Let's hope 2021 doesn't have as much sorrow. 

Leedsunited bowing out.

We have to wait for a statement from the Club outlining their decisions and the reasons for them. Rumours, no matter how close to the Club the source is are extremely unhelpful.

Any decisions from the Club Committee at this time must surely be subject to any sanctions imposed by the Police, County Councils and footballing authorities who will presumably not be concerned about the consequences of their decisions.

We await the results of all of their deliberations with interest.
