Lack of transparency surrounding fixtures being called off. Seems fair enough to me.

 

Which bit don't they understand? We've got covid spreading across the team on top of injuries and suspensions and as such we are unable to pick a team to participate in the upcoming fixture against them on Sunday 2nd January.

Some of these opposition fans are absolute knackers, they keep bleating on about injuries are not covid

 

The rules are that covid+injuries are taken into consideration, we didn't make that rule, they need to direct their anger towards the PL who have made a mess of this

Never like to lose a weekend game on tv, but got to think of the bigger picture. Wouldn't have enjoyed losing on Sunday anyway, now at least we know ASM will be fit for the next PL fixture as things stand.

Southampton message board not happy with how we’re reacting, bless, love the fact so many supporters are in total fume mode

 

 

Gonna be great when Trippier crosses for Belotti to slot home our 4th in the rearranged fixture :lol:

 Look forward to playing them in a few months when they've got a whole new squad and ASM and Wilson back from injury...

What an absolute joke. We had more players out when we lost 9-0 at Old Trafford last year

 

You probably should have tried to get the game postponed then mate.

Who is verifying injuries are genuine?  Whole process is a mess.

 

Lack of self awareness by our fans on here is stagerring.

Ha they have posted a link to this thread. Fuming. [emoji38]

 

Look Southampton fans, we'd love to play this game, and inshallah we will in a month's time when four or five of our players with Covid will step off the planes and sign their contracts to become Newcastle players. :nile:

Fuck 'em. Whether they won, lost or drew this fixture it will make no difference to their season. They won't go down and won't finish any higher than 13th.

 

We can all have a day on the piss instead watching the football in the pub.

To be fair they have a point, as do other clubs about postponements because if this.

 

We're just acting up because it's directed at us but if the tables were turned I'd be fuming with Southampton as well.

 

The whole thing is a piss take, we've just taken advantage of the Premier leagues incompetence like loads of other clubs the last few weeks, doesn't make it right mind.

 

Yeah it helps us but it's bullshit the amount of games being called off/attempting to be called off. Clubs are taking the piss and it isn't right.

The PL, now how extensive or genuine that is, no idea

 

Again, this is an issue created by the PL not sure where the lack of self awareness is

 

If the situation was reversed we'd no doubt kick off but that's tribalism for you

 

What's clear is that singling us out for stick is absurd and our fans are rightly standing up to that

I don’t get it. Don’t we have legit Covid and injury cases?

I have seen clubs get games called off for injuries to key players before Covid was about.

It was only a couple of months ago we had to play a game without our manager because he had Covid, it’s not like we haven’t been trying to cope.
