Presume they would have been sent straight home in a taxi rather than spread the bug on the coach. Doesnt our old keeper, names gone, who went to Leeds run an executive chaffeur company up there that England use for players.
Name has just come to me Mark Beeney.
At least you know Brezovan wouldnt give away a freekick by catching the ball but as regards CMS how long does it take to score a goal so in 5 mins could possibly get a couple.
And, he couldnt manage 5 mins. In the 60s we played Good Friday, Saturday and Easter Monday every season. Most people say players are fitter now than in those days.
Could we not have flown CMS up today, as soon as we knew, sat him on the bench to use for a few minutes in an emergency. Rodriguez csme on for 4 mins Saturday sure he could manage that.
