Does this mean that McNeill, Rodriguez, Brownhill and Westwood are not very well?

McNeil and Jay are injured. The other 2 were either rested or have tested positive.

Dunne , Long, Brownhill, Westwood? Dyche says 4 have it.

Dunne and Long. I presumed that they were on the bench but they weren't.

Would have thought BPF would have started today

I didn't see either Ian Woan or Billy Mercer, or did I just miss them? Presumably some who were absent was because they were "contacts" rather than necessarily having the infection. Am I right that they could become available again if they have 2 negative tests?

Billy Mercer was seen on camera at the start of the match coming out onto the pitch with Sean Dyche.
Didn't Ian Woan test positive at the re-start of last season?

Thought Norris looked steady today. From the little I have seen of BFP and Norris, the latter gives me more confidence. His kicking and distribution were excellent today

Team selection was fine
Subs were OK, but too late

All we ever do is change players, like for like
We need to start changing shape and formation as well as the subs. We are far too predictable, therefore our subs give nothing new for the opposition to think about, just more of the same.

Ian Woan may have been a contact and therefore required to self-isolate. The missing players may have been a mix of positive tests and direct contacts.
