Probably depends if we have Chair and Dieng for the rearranged fixture. |  | |  |

The club won't have any say on the re-arrangement. The League rules state that the match must be played on the first available date. That may be December 22nd, but certainly would be January at the latest. We are also free to play on the 5th & 12th January. |  | |  |

We’d be the first team to get punished for it so it shouldn’t happen. |  | |  |

Welcome to the world of conspiracy theories Baz! I don't recall any Premier or EFL club being fined or having matches awarded against them. The "punishment" is having to play the matches very soon after restarting. |  | |  |

Tottenhams game at Brighton today has been postponed because of COVID. The football league would have to come up with something special to penalise us. Still would not put it past them |  | |  |

If I was the FA or EFL or whoever is in charge of fining for not fulfilling fixtures, I would look at our injury list and consider the sudden one day before fixture covid outbreak very fortuitous for us and would make sure I get proof of everyone’s covid test. I would also ask why our U23s or recalled loanees couldn’t fulfill places. I think most of them have already had league experience so the FA/EFL will take a dim view of pulling out. |  | |  |

If the club is forging or faking covid tests it would deserve to be punished. Pretty confident that those currently in charge wouldn't be so irresponsible though. |  |

I don’t think they are stupid enough to fake tests, especially in the post Paliadini era, but I presume we have around 50 odd eligible players. Surely we could muster 16 out of those? Remember Spurs v Middlesbrough when the whole team were in the hotel shitting their guts out an hour before KO and they still got fined. Maybe Covid is different in that the potential for infection is the issue. I just hope they have receipts! I’m currently in York with the missus and persuaded her to attend Brammel Lane tomorrow on the pretext that we spend all day today humping round the fcking Christmas market, so cheesed off to say the least.

I must say that it does strike me as odd that today the club published 2 articles on its website. The first, "Gallery: R's sharpen up for Blades trip" https://www.qpr.co.uk/news/fea The second, "MATCH POSTPONED: Sheffield United v QPR" https://www.qpr.co.uk/news/clu Not a good look. |  | |  |

IF we were shown to being economical with the truth then we would deserve to be thrown out of the EFL! I don't know, but I would expect that this hasn't just arisen today & that the club have been in contact with the EFL & Sheffield United previously. Are you sugesting that the EFL should hold an emergency meeting & overturn their rules on returning loanees? If not, neither Kelman or Bettache could play. |  | |  |

Not a good look but not a big deal. I trust their judgement. |  |

I have no idea Tel. Coincidences happen I guess but this outcome is extremely fortuitous that’s for sure! |  | |  |
