Paterson's absence

[PSumbler]

"He's [Paterson] isolating. I think the majority of the squad have had it over this period but only one with symptoms. Pato's not that one," said the head coach.

"We're being asked to test every day. It's going to come up at some point.

"The fortunate thing for us is that even the one player who had symptoms, they were very mild. The rest have had no symptoms at all.

"Their biggest frustration is that they've felt great at home and they're having to sit at home for 10 days and then come back in, so we have to be a bit patient with them, we can't go straight into it after 10 days off, even though they felt well.

"So there's protocols to follow to avoid injury, so that is what it is, and hopefully we're over the back of it now and we can move on."

"sit at home "

I know it's just a phrase, but you would expect that they would be doing basic exercises to keep at a good level. Match fitness is another issue which can be said of many of our squad who don't get much game time.

I've just come off a week self isolation with no symptoms but a positive test. Nothing to stop me exercising in the house - its not the same but I hope he's not sat on his arse watching This Morning and Loose Women!

Thought I would post it as it will kill any rumours that he was left out ahead of a sale :lol:

He was sat at home watching granny does a tranny on repeat hence why they couldn't just rush him back into playing.
