OMT Spurs - Fulham

Do you think some sides have tried to game the system by not testing the odd star player etc. I wonder if all clubs are testing properly
 
I don't.
The reputational damage when it came out would be too high.

Clubs won't care about that with money at stake and i don't think the league offer enough threat with regards to any future punishment for gaming the system to not be used to some degree.

I'd like to know whether the clubs are responsible for testing the players and is it only on good faith that their results are taken on?

But I think fans do.
If a club was acting that deceitfully in a pandemic that will have killed many of its fans I think it would destroy the club.

I know if Spurs did it I'd walk away in a heartbeat.
 
Apparently could be postponed due to Covid in Fulham. From the BBC:

Premier League game in doubt
Tottenham v Fulham (18:00 GMT)
After Emirates Marketing Project's game with Everton was postponed due to a coronavirus outbreak at City, could Tottenham's match with Fulham be the latest to be cancelled?

The Premier League clash is in doubt because of new coronavirus cases at Fulham.

Manager Scott Parker did not take charge of the Cottagers' goalless draw with Southampton on Boxing Day after someone in his household tested positive for Covid-19.

Parker is due to return to the dugout at Tottenham later - if the game goes ahead as scheduled.

The thing is they'd always come up with plausible deniability... (i.e. Player X missed testing due to a one-off of unusual circumstances, had to look after unwell kids at last minute etc.). We'd never know imo.

That's what we've been discussing for the last five pages
 
If it’s not been confirmed by now the chances are it’s off.

I imagine they are just collecting the paperwork for when we ask why we haven’t been given the win.

Exactly.
Fulham would need to get on the coach in the next 45 mins.

It could be last minute testing to see if they have enough players?
