The league need to introduce some new guidelines to stop teams like Villa taking liberties. If they literally cannot field a team them yea it’s frustrating but probably the right thing, as someone said this could happen to us. However if they can get 14/15 players together and the problem is their perceived lack of preparation time then the answer should be tough, get in with it. If they don’t take that stance teams will continue to apply for postponements for tactical reason. For all we know Grealish and Watkins both have short term muscle injuries and that is driving their push.
They need to make it very public how many villa players (not staff) have covid or have to isolate. They are risking the season having to be extended which would be a mess. Imagine we finish in fourth then someone has 2 more games to play which they can rest and get injuries players back for which helps them take the spot off us.
