Good morning all - just sent out this email:
Hi Everyone
First - a Merry Christmas to all of you! I hope you're all having a great day with family and friends -- either together or virtually.
I think that I'm going to keep the pool closed for the time being. The number of fixtures on the schedule combined with the number of players unable to play, along with a dash of FA uncertainty of what even will constitute a postponed game, all makes for a pretty difficult operation for any of us to pick games.
I'm going to wait until at least one of the following has happened: a) all regularly scheduled games are played in a given game week or b) it's after the January international break
Hope you all have a great holiday season and get to enjoy the games we do get to see. Stay healthy and safe and see you all in 2022.
Jeff
