The English Football League is considering whether to reimplement mandatory coronavirus testing as it reviews its medical regulations

“The EFL are not testing their players for financial reasons,” Sullivan told TalkSport. “We actually said, medically, why are we in a competition where we’re playing teams who have not been checked? We, with a few other Premier League clubs, decided to make the proposal to offer the teams we’re playing a check, at our expense so there is no cost to them whatsoever, so we were not exposing our players to untested players.

Hang on if here is “spare” testing should be used for key workers and if it’s a private firm conducting them should be “conscripted” for the many not the wealthy few imo
